The Jordan Fire.

The preliminary hearing OF the case
of the State against John Wilson charg-
ed with arson o7 burning the dwelling
of DR.. Fl. L. Wilson, at Jordan, was
held before Magistrate Bradham ID the
court house Monday morning, and 50
much interest was manifested that the
MAGISTRATE was forced TO use the court
room to accommodate the crowd. The
State was represented by Capt ". G.
Davis, and the defence by S. Oliver
O'Bryan. ESQ. The evidence revealed
was only a part of which the prosecu,
tion has. This showed the defendant ana
several other negroes to have gone from
Davis Station to the home of Rufus !9low-
den near Jordan, and from there they
went to a place where they said gold was
buried. All hands had been drinking;
They returned to Plowdeu's house and
while they were sitting there talking,
John Wilson absenJed himself and was
gone about 30 minutes. When he re-
turned, in short while an alarm was
sounded, attention was directed to the
alarm and Wilson remarked SIT is some
one dead or fire." The party went to
the FIRE.
The witnesses were not willing in their
testimony, and what was obtained was
screwed out OF them by the State.
Harper Glenn, colored detective from
Columbia, gave the most damaging
testimony, and even his testimony was
not given in full. Evidently he did not
care to divulge any more than was nee
essary to commit. Magistrate Bradham
sent the case to the court OF sessions,
and if there is conviction the penalty
is death.
