Beaufort, S. c., Jan. 1.-THE Court
of Common Pleas, Judge James Aid
rich, concluded it's docket Saturday
night.
Some months ago an action was
brought to set aside the charter of the
town of Bluffton by private citizens
An application was made to Judge
Watts for an injunction against the
town authorities, which was refused.
The defendant demurred on the ground
that private citizens could not sue to
annul the charter of a town. The case
came up at this term of the court, and
the plaintiffs abandoned the suit, when
an order was taken Diminishing the
same
In the case of Beck against the At
lantic Coast Line a verdict was rem
dered for the plaintiff for $500. This
was an action to recover damages for
personal injury, which occurred while
a freight train was being made up near
Charleston. IAN attempt was made to
impeach the testimony of the plaintiff,
hut this failed. A motion is pending
before Judge Aldrich for new trial.
In the case of Lassiter & Co. against
the Okeetee Club a verdict was found
for the plaintiff for the land in dispute
and $3.50 damages. The Okeetee Club
purchased a large tract of land some
years ago from the late John X. Car
nett, and the land in dispute was al
legged to have been included in that
purchase. The plaintiffs, however, had
bought the land from Conner & Co., Of
Savannah, and the jury decided that
the Conner title was the better.

made by the centennial committee which
had charge of exercises held at Hamilton's
old home, the Grange, that exercises be
held at the tomb. At noon, owing to a
misunderstanding, no reply was received
from the church authorities. Several per-
sons went to the churchyard. among them
Nathaniel Pendleton Rogers a great
grandson of Nathaniel Pendleton. who WAS
Hamiltons second in the duel, and r. s.
Aleshire of West Virginia. a great-great-
grandson of Hamilton. They were stand
Ing at the grave when three or four other
persons approached. Among them was Al
bert II. Walker, a well-known patent law
yer, who is an admirer of Alexander HAM
llton. Mr.. Walker, on learning that no ex-
ercises would be held, asked permission OF
the sexton to conduct a memorial service
Several hundred persons also attended
memorial meeting held in the afternoon on
Washington Heights at I42d street A
platform had been built around the thir-
teen trees near the Grange. where Hamil-
ton lived. The trees were planted by Ham,
1lton himself as memorial to the thir-
teen states.
Forty members of the Alexander Hamn-
ton Post. G. A. r.; the band of the Hebrew
Orphan Asylum and 800 children from the
asylum took part in the exercises. There
were 900 persons present
