team was stopped after awhile, and
when Mr.. Barnard arrived in reach

MEN AND EVENTS OF TWO STATES
BRIEFLY DESCRIBED.

Ocilla Dispatch: Gen. Wade Hamp-
ton, the great soldier and statesman,
is dead, and the whole South mourns.
The writer served under his command
four years in the late war and can
testify to his soldiery bearing and fine
Qualities as a commander. He never
asked his men to go where he would
not lead. At the great battle of Get
tysburg we saw him desperately
wounded and his horse killed by a
shell, just as a charge was about to
be made. He has joined the majority
on the other shore, where the remnant
of the old Confederates now here will
soon join him. Peaceful be his rest.

NEGRO GROUND TO PIECES.

Statesboro News: On Monday morn
ing John Purcell. one of the crew of
one of the construction trains now en-
gagged in the grading of the Central
Railroad track near Clito met a most
horrible death. He was riding on the
pilot in front of the engine, when 1t
is supposed his foot slipped and he
fell under the moving train and was
ground into sausage meat. His remains
were gathered up and put in goods
box and shipped to Savannah. In the
heap of mangled flesh was found the
neck of a pint bottle, and it IS thought
that the unfortunate man had been
drinking, and this may have been the
cause of his death. He had just re-
turned from Savannah where he spent
the day on Sunday.
