to another old fellow of his race who

Harry Myers, who went to war with

Augusta, Perry county, where he
Joined the Seventh Mississippi bat

servant to Mr.. Jesse Boyd, of the

The story is told to the effect that
some four or five years ago Heidelberg
got Armistead out of Jail at some ex-
pense and though repeatedly dunned.
Armistead, according to the story, has
never paid Heidelberg for the cost of
his friendly act.
Hence on Saturday night when
Heidelberg again asked Armistead to
pay up Armistead is reported to have
said he was tired of being dunned and
with threat to whip Heidelberg. he
jumped out of a buggy to carry out
his threat, Heidelberg let Armistead
have blow somewhere about the
temple and Armistead was laid out by
a regular knockout blow.
Armistead being unusually slow in
coming too, and fearing a dire result
Heidelberg was brought to Jail to be
held until the full extent of the blow

recovered consciousness and was get
