ers, who had been lawing among
themselves for years, succeeded in
getting together and forming what
is known as the West Tennessee

ant, of this city. At this time the
fishing privileges of the great body
OF water were leased to Mr.. Pleas
ant, the exclusive right being guar
anteed by the company.
Certain parties, it is claimed,
ignored the alleged rights of this
company and continued to cast their
nets and sell the product of their
labors wherever they could. About
ten days ago, it is said, the Land
Company procured sweeping injunc-
tions and had same served accord
ing to law upon eighteen OF the
people who they Claimed were fish
ing without the consent of the les
see and selling to parties at Obion.
By a number of citizens Of this sec
tion this was thought to have been
hardship and it is thought Satur-
day nights trouble grew out of this
action. 1t is also thought by many
that the people who did the burn
ing of the property thought they
were destroying the property Of the
West Tennessee Land Co. instead
of property of individual citizens.
Mr.. Pleasant states that the prop
erty lost was worth at least $4, 600.

fed all present that all fishing for
profit on the lake must be discon-

be the property of Tennessee and
everybody allowed the same privil-
eges-and business stopped. Mr..
Webster pulled his freight wagons

100 in number, tied up their boats,
