more faith in published testimonials.

VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY
WITH A RECOMMENDATION
Unique and Amusing Verdict Was
Returned in Criminal Case.

Unique and Amusing Verdict Was
Returned in Criminal Case.
A verdict of not guilty, with a rec
concentration, is something which, I'M
til yesterday, was never heard of in
Chatham county, and, so far is known,
anywhere else. but such was the YER
dict which was returned in the case
against Solomon Aiken, George How
ard. Frank Griffin and Ned Hargraves,
who were tried in the Superior Court
for using a gill net in the Skidaway
river, within a mile of Isle of Hope.
1t appeared from the testimony that
when the men were caught by the Of
ficers of the law, they requested a few
punches of fish from them. the negroes
complying with the request and sub
hitting to arrest. Under the law it
was up to the state to prove that the
men were caught within mile of Isle
of Hope. This it failed to do. and the
jury returned a verdict finding them
not guilty and recommending that the
two officers, C. B. Westcott and e. w.
OConnor, be required to pay for the
fish which they received from the de-
PENDANTS.
The verdict, when read aloud by the
clerk of the court, caused a great deal
of merriment in the court room. The
recommendation was attached to the
finding of the jury. Judge Barrow,
while recognizing the equity in the
verdict, and approaching the joke as
much as any one else, ordered that the
recommendation be expunged from the
record, and that 1t be not recorded by
the clerk.
The trial of the case occupied the
attention of the court the major part
of the day and was watched with in
terest by a delegation of more than 100
colored recidents of Isle of Hope. The
place where the men were apprehend-
ed by the officers was in the Skidaway
river, adjoining the De Renne place.

Tense was represented by Raiford Fall

The funeral of Mr.. Bernard Brady
took place yesterday afternoon from his
late residence, No. 81 Jones street
east. Under the military escort of
Company B of the Savannah Volunteer
Guards, fifty strong. under the COM
mand of Capt. w. B. Stephens, of
which organizat ton Mr.. Brady was a
war member, and attended by Solo
mons Lodge No. l, F. and A. Masons,
and many Confederate Veterans and
other friends, the funeral cortege pro-
ceeded to BonaVenture Cemetery, the
military, Masons and others taking
cars at Habersham street.
At the grave the burial rites of the
Masons were performed and Company
B paid it's last rites to a departed
brother firing three volleys over the
grave and standing with solemn re-
spect while the company bugler blew
taps" the last earthly farewell. The
floral tributes were numerous and ex-
quisite, many cut flowers and hand
some designs being laid upon the grave.
The pallbearers were Messrs. Harry
Harte and Thomas N. Denmark of
Company b; L. H. McLaws and ]. S.
Silva of the Masons. and ]. H. Ken
nedy and Robert Groves, friends of the
family.
Mr.. Brady's death caused much re-
greet. Honest, abundantly generous
and ever true to obligations, his death
was a bereavement to the many who
had known him from his arrival in
Savannah forty-eight years ago, and
had admired and respected him. He
came here in 1855 to work for w. o.

The growth of the Ocean Steamship

been so great that it is not impossible
that a transatlantic line may be es-
tablished. and that at no very distant
date. 1t is said that the only thing
that now stands in the way of inau-
gurating such a line is the lack of re-
turn cargOes. The vessels now plying
coastwise could be used for the foreign
line. but for their limited bunker space
and this. it is claimed could readily be
enlarged and at a small cost.
