Tom Mcdonald was arrested Mend

liquor illegally.
His soft drink place on South
Main street was visited during the af-
ternoon by City Marshal Morgan and
Officers Stages and Lancaster, and
searched ny virtue of search war
rant issued by Recorder Erwin. The
officers found two bottles containing
whisky near the bar, one bottle being
full and having never been opened,
the other was almost full. The bot
ties were ccnfiscated by the officers
McDonald's arrest then followed.
McDonald's arrest was due to the
fact that Ollie Davis was found drunk
Monday. and arrested by the officers
and locked up.
Mcdonald was brought to trial
under the warrant charging him with
selling liquor Illegally, and spirited
legal contest resulted The City was
represented by City Attorney CotIey

The trial was begun yesterday at

matter. The court finally held his de-

by the attorneys on the question.
AS to the question of the search

the place conducted by Mcdonald, the
court held that he should give bond In
the sum of $3.50. which he furnished.
The matter will therefore go to the
grand Jury for investigation.

the bridge at Overalrs Creek stood a
magnificent grove of large white oaks,
which we pioneers went to telling while

On Snodsrass Ridge.

Editor National Tribune: In the fight
on Snodgrass Ridge Sunday afternoon,
Sept q, 1868, during the battle of
ChicEamauSa, our brigade, composed
Of the 18th Ohio, isslI Ill. and 11th
Mich, arrived at the foot of the: ridge
north of the house, about nooR and
halted under some trees. Gen. John
Beatty was with us, and Gen. Thomas
was part of the time. The SnodSras5
house was an old log cabin standing on
a bench of the hill. Northeast and on
bower ground was a newer log stable.
Between the house and stable were two
cannon pointing south. East of the
stable was a Kentucky regiment firing
southwark, and farther on were two
regiments facing east, but not engaged.
There was not much firing on the
ridge south and west of us at that t1me
but the 18th Ill. and the 1ith Mich
were sent up to strengthen the line.
There was artillery On both sides of
the house, and 1 think the 18th Ohio
was, left there to support the battery
About II o'clock we were all greatly
startled by large clouds of dust arising
, in our rear, and were much relieved
when we found that it was made by

Later in the afternoon: maybe; after
o'clock, the enemy made deter
mined attack along the whole ridge of
more than half Iniie in length, and
the firing was the fiercest that l heard
during the day. l saw many of Sted-
| mans men streaming back, and thought
! his lines were broken. At that time

| 18th Ohio was ordered forward. We
met the retreating stfoops about half
way down the slope, and most of them

enemy in full possession. Our color
