Dispatch reporter Friday that by

ing winter would bring. He declared
that frost never caught a euekle-burr

Of the burrs have already matured
and fallen to the ground leads him
to believe that we will have an early
frost. and that this frost will be fol-
lowed by a long, cold winter

The plant of the Columbus Ma

South First street was almost totally
destroyed by fire Friday night, the
main building, in which both the

and the loss resulting from the fire

CHANCELLOR M'COOL
DECIDES BANK CASE
ORDERS FIRST STATE BANK TO
PAY OVER S3, 1870 TO THE
TRUSTEES OF DEFUNCT
CHAIR COMPANY.
Case Was Heard at April Term of
Chancery Court, But Judge Nc
Cool Reserved His Decis-
ION Until Last Week.

The fan term of chancery court,
which convened last Monday, adj
journed on Thursday morning, and
Judge McCool left at noon for his
home IN Kosciusko. The docket was
rather light, and besides finishing it
up in its entirety Judge McCool dis
posed of some old cases that had
been left over from preceding terms.
He worked very rapidly, and not
withstanding the short period of time
which court was in session quite a
lot of business was transacted.
One of the most important cases
to be decided was that of c. L. Lin
coin, trustee in bankruptcy of the
defunct Columbus Chair Company,
versus the First State Bank, in which
a decree awarding the plaintiff the
sum of S3,12790 was rendered. The
suit was to recover money paid to
the First State Bank on a debt after
it was known that the corporation
was insolvent. Under the bankrupt
cy law, no firm or corporation can
1iquidate any Indebtedness within
four months prior to the time it is
declared insolvent, and the plaintiff
showed that the money involved was
paid over to the First State Bank
less than four months prior to the
time that a trustee in bankruptcy
was appointed. The amount sued
for was about $4,000, but defendant
showed that this sum had not been
received, and Judge McCooI, as stat
ed above, rendered a decree award
ing plaintiff S3,127-90. which amount
represents the actual sum Illegally
paid over TO the bank. together with
interest on same to the time the de-
cree was rendered
The case was argued at the April
term of chancery court, but Judge
McCool took the matter under ad-
visement, and did not render his de-
cree until last Thursday Messrs-
Belts and SturdiVant represented
Col. Lincoln, the trustee in bank
ruptcy, while Col. VIM Baldwin ap-
peared for the First State Bank.
After having rendered his decision
in the above ease, which viii be APP
pea1ed to the Supreme court, Judge
McCool reverted TO the regular cal
endar, and the bonds Of matrimony
heretofore existing between a co1ored
individual named Jupiter Turner and
his wife. Mary, We're speedily severed.
Turner possesses an astronomical
cognomen, but his wife doubtless
made him see more stars than were
good for his eyesight, and he decided |
to cut loose from her. This con-
cluded the docket so far as iftigated |
cases We're concerned. and after sign |
ing several court orders and dispos-
ing of some routine business Judge t
McCooI ordered an adjournment.

Mrs. Sallie Coleman, a we'll known
lady who for long time past has
resided at Fernbank, died at $40
o'clock last Tuesday evening. Mrs.
Colemans S death was a rather unus-
ual one, having resulted from an op-
Grafton that was performed a num-
ber of years ago. She was d suf-
ferer from cancer trouble, and some
six years ago had an operation per-
formed by a specialist in one of the
large Southern cities. The cancer
was removed, but she continued to
suffer from pains in her abdomen,
and few weeks since was operated
upon a second time When the sur
geon opened up the old wound he
found imbedded in the flesh an in
strument which had been used in the
first operation. The instrument was
about six inches long, and had been
the cause of the pain suffered by the
patient for SO many years. Long
continued suffering had caused Mrs.
Coleman to lose much strength, and
she was too weak to withstand the
second operation, having died within
a few days after it was performed.
Mrs. Coleman, who at the time of
her death was forty-eight years of
age, was a sister OF DR.. NJ. r. Seay.
of Fernbank, and an aunt of Mr.. A.
