IN MEMORIAN.

On Tuesday morning, Novem.
Der 18, the death angel quietly
came and claimed Bro. M. C.
Redden as its victim. Bro. Red
den was born April 13, 1885. at
Edgefeld, S. c., but shortly after
his birth his parents moved to
this country, where he has re-
sided ever since.
In his death another place is
vacant in the rapidly thinning
ranks of the Confederate army
that ere long will be only history
to the younger generation.
On December %, 1861, he was
married to Miss Harriet Dalton.
Just at this time many of our
leading young men were sever
ing family ties and volunteering
for services in the Confederate
army. He also heard the call of
his country and babe farewell to
his young bride and went to fight
for what he thought was a just
cause. He remained during the
entire four years of the war.
After the surrender he returned
home and started anew to build
him a home. For many years he
had the contract to carry the
mail from Hendersonville to
Cashiers Valley via Brevard and
Cedar Mountain. After the Hen
Jacksonville & Brevard Railroad
was constructed these routes
discontinued, and then he moved
near Hendersonville and made a
comfortable living for his family
by market gardening. He joined
the Baptist Church at Horse Shoe
more than forty years ago and
has since lived a consistent Chris
tian life.
He leaves a wife and nine chill
dren-fve girls and four boys
and a host of friends to mourn
his loss. Funeral services were
conducted at Mud Creek Church
by Revs. Brookshire and Morris.
Interment in Mud Creek ceme-
terry.
To sum up his virtues would
say: He was a true and noble
Christian, a tried and faithful
soldier, a loving and compassion
ate father, and a valuable citizen
to any community.

James Mcclure and Will Maze which
became a general engagement at the
skating rink Saturday night, skates,
chairs and sticks were thrown at the
officer, a pair of steel skates cutting
a cash in his scalp and a final blow
from a club across the eyes telling
him insensible into the street where
he was rescued by reinforcements
from the station.
The patrolman, a day man, had

eighty men and boys told the manager
that he had better call more police be-
fore he attempted quieting them as
they would very likely only boot at
him alone knowing he would hesitate
to do any violence, still the manager
thought he could quiet the mob SO he
tried it. He went up the stairs and
found Maze in the midst of the fight
which could scarcely be reached so
thick were the com batantS. When the
officer worked into the mess the at
tack was turned to him and Maze
struck him over the head with pair
of skates making a severe scalp
wound The crowd fled down to the
skating floor where the officer at
tempted to arrest Maze and the fight
continued. Missiles were coming from
everywhere, Robert and Leonard Nc
Cullough were mixing in prominently
and Floor Instructor Hunter tried to
kick Bob down stairs when Leonard
hit him with a pair of skates and then
threw them at the officer.
The throng of girls, women and
children crowded around for a better
view of the great free for all which
continued all the way down the stairs
to the street. AS the street was
reached some one not yet found,
struck the policeman a. crashing blow
across the eyes with a, long club of
some sort which sent him to the pave

A colored tramp, Jim Edwards SO

in the city prison Saturday night
about O'Clock, suffered a hemor-

and died at 4 in the morning.
Edwards was placed in the pen
with the other prisoners and bunked
in the customary hunks. Other pris-
oners offered to aid him when they
saw he was in distress, but he told
them he often had the same trouble.
The final hemorrhage occurred about
O'Clock and the old man was seen in

pool of blood on the floor and still
bleeding from the mouth. Jai1or Law

man had died almost by the time he
