Our community was startled and
saddened yesterday to learn of the
death of Honv S,'D. llaignt, ot i,ua
ington, Judge V the 19th Judicial
Circuit, Wednesday morning, Feb.
25th, aft'er:a short illness of
only two or throe ilays. In this
deatlfthe District, the City of Lud
ington, the family and friends of the
decewed.; sustain a serious loss.
Previon to his being called to the
bench he had gained a solid reputa
tion iVanable lawyer, a man of in
tegrity and true worth, a genial,
courteous gentleman. Stricken by
the hand of death, as he was, in the
Tery prime of manhood, "with ap
. parently a bright future before him
in this life, His but another illus
tration of the uncertainty of earth
ly hopes. .Y' '
; SamudD. Haight was born koy.
16th; 1839, in the town of Root
. Montgomery county, New York.
He received a common school edu
cation, except that he attended one
term at Fairfield University. In
1861 hVeame to Michigan; and in
January, 1 862, he enlisted in the
Oth Michigan Cavalry. He was pro
moted to 1st Sergeant, 1st and 2d
Lieutenant. He was in fifty-two
engagements, and with Sherman in
the Atlanta campaign and the great
"march to the sea." Studying law,
after the closo of the war, ho was ad
mitted to the bar, in 1870, and set
tled in Iiudirigton. He was twice
elected Prosecuting Attorney of
Mason county, running on the Dem
ocratic ticket, in a strong Itepubli-
can couaty.' ;He was elected to the
office of Circuit Judge, in the Fall of
1878, the term txpiring'in 1881.
The disease is said to have been
inflammation of bowels. The funer
al is expected to take place Friday,
Feb. 27th.- "

There is still a good deal of
speculation as to the ' meaning of
the great dinner given to Senators
in New York, at which Senators
Blaine. Conklinc and Cameron
were present Tho interpretations
are as numerous as the interpreters.
It is announced however that tho
friends of these three Senators have
a better understanding than before,
and this probably means that next
to Grant, or in case he is withdrawn,
tho New York and Pennsylvania
chiefs will support Senator Blaine.
Tho House rules are still in the
way of business, and I don't see
how they can bo disposed of for

They assert that the Democrats are

election goes to the House. How
ever, it is not generally believed
that the Democrats will unite to un

Secretary Sherman is still, ap

It is remarkable that all the new

although the Secretary denies that
he takes that into account in his

CUAPTEtt IX.
Before tho Knights A Strange Tri
al. During this harangue the soldiers
stood with arms presented, while
the gathering had also, arisen to
liir feet. At its conclusion, seats
were resumed and the trial began.
Tint vrVi V Attcmnt to describe all
the details of the farce that followed?
The reader is in possession of all
the events jiat led to the scene, and
can easily imagine the details of the
charges, and it is not necessary to
weary with recounting all the pom
pous platitudes about "divine rights"
"obligations to the sovereign State
of Texas," "homes endangered,"
&c, which were thickly scattered
through the proceeding.
The meaningless mummeries of
facing the four points of the com
pass Diore auuresiu mo
mightiness, the presiding genius,
and others equally absurd might be
diverting to witness, but not edify
ing to read about; and so having
given the reader a glimpse of the
honorable(?) court, . before whom
their cases were to be tried, but
where they were not allowed to ap-
pear in person wiu.i;o mtii wuov,
let us visit those unfortunate ones
who were at that moment confined
not thirty feet distant, , -
Though so near the main hall of
the cave that thev could hear tho
murmur of voices at times, yet no
word could be distinguished. They
had been assured, however, that
their examination was to take place
that evening. They had hoped to
be allowed to appear and plead
their own cases. They had even
imagined that in the event of a fair
trial, illegal though they declared it
to be; no sufficient number of their
old friends and neighbors coma ne
found to pronounce them guilty,
even though trammeled by secret
tows and obligations. Now, how
ever, their gaoler had told them
that they were to bo tried under the
laws of the Knights of the Golden
Circle; that a commission from the
Hot "nnitftl had arrived that after
noon; and they surmised that theirs
were test cases; that they had been
selected for punishment as examples
to deter others from following their
precedent. The fiery and impetu
ous oetn liogan in parutum

emies, v
"Friends!" he cried; "our fate is
sealed! The farce is near Its end!
We are lost, for no justice can reach
us here. Better, far better nave
fallen into the hands of the blood
thirsty Comanches or tho thieving
Arapahoes than into the clutches of
this gang of secession cutthroats!"
"Oar case is truly desperate," re
plied the doctor; "but Both, if our
fate is to die,let us meet it like men."
VAye," said the excited man; "I
would meet my "fate like a man;
but not as a dog. '. Here we are;
three American citizens, guilty of
too crime, confined in a dungeon
beneath the surface of the inhabited
world; chained like malefactors to
the granite rocks about us; our fam
ilies dead to us, probably, forever,
and weih the power of an ' oath
bound set of ' wretches who style
themselves the chivalry . of the
Sonth but who have no more hearts
than the rocky fiocr we tread upon!

Seth, hotly; "but I suppose it's no
use to kick against the inevitable;
though the thought ot our situation
and that of our poor families e'ena
most drives mo crazy!" and the an
guished man rattled his fetters
fiercely, and pressed his burning
forehead against the flinty wall.
"Friends, there are times when
we must trust ourselves to the care
of tho Great Ruler above!" broke
in tremulous tones from the lips, of
their aged companion, John Harri
oati "YVa Vnnw that Merton es
caped. We know that un to the
timo of our leaving, the vigilants
had not discovered the grotto where
we concealed our wives and chil
dren. We have reason to hopo tor
relief from our friend, Taul Willis.
Then knowing all this, can we not
leave the matter in the hands of
Tlim xvn vrnft Israel's refucre when
they like us were fleeing Jrom op
pression and tyranny?"
The view of tho matter presented
by his aged companion in misfor
tune had some effect in quieting the
emotion of Hogan; though his ap
prehensions were far from being
allayed. In fact, it "was plain to
them all that whatever might be the
issue of tho triaU?),that Scth would
nrnhablv suffer the extremes t pen
alty; for ii was his hand that had
committed tho fatal deed at the
moment of their capture, and though
.1 . 11 I i e J
tne aci WOUl't appear-uii ico9n JU8U-
fiable under the circumstances on
the ground of self .defense, yet it
was not likely that that feature
would be allowed in extenuation of
tho deed.
Meanwhile the farce had been
progressing in the outer room, and
was fast drawing to a close. ' Tho
accusations were made by Carver,
who acted as spokesman on the oc
casion, nnd from their very nature
it could be seen that he had determ
ined whatever might be the decision
5n ronmrd to Dr. Marvin and John
Harrison, that Seth Hogan should
suffer. After, detailing the events
of the attempted escape, the pur
suit and the recapture, such points
as were necessary being corrobo
rated by the testimony of his men,
he urged in his closing plea that
in view of the stubborn persistence
with which they refused to reveal
the place where their families were
concealed, as well as the resistance
tliev made when cantured: it was
imperative that at feast one exam
pie be made among the prisoners
which should strike terror to the
hearts of all who might wish to leave
the State. At last the evidence,
accompanied by the special plead
ing, was concluded, and the judges,
after a short consultation, an
nounced that their decision had
been reached.
Upon hearing this, Carver ad
vanced and detailed a couple of men
from the guard, and with them dis
appeared in the direction of the
cells. ' In a few moments he reap
peared, advancing with a slow and
measured tread at the head of his
guard, who escorted one of tho pris
oners. The judges hastily drew
li!r mn&lcM over their faces as the
party neared them and waited till
tho victim should be placed in a
proper position befcrro the bar.
This was soon accomplished, and as
the rays of the torch fell upon the
pallid face of the manacled prison
er they disclosed tho features of old
John Harrison.
"What have I .to do before this
bar?" inquired he in, a voice tremu
lous with age 'and suffering, as he
was halted at a sign from Carver.
"Associate iudcesof this Knight
ly OrdcV." spoke the chief; "what

Harrison, who has boon triod this
night for attempting to desert the
sovereign Stato of Texas in her
need, and further with the inten
tion to ally himself with and thus
render aid and comfort to our ac
knowledged enemies, the people of
the North, who are even now pre
narinc to invade us with hostile in-
necessary" was given. This clem
ency. was extended to.-hin both on
t'of tho local 'celebrity ho
ho had attained as the practi$iri&
physician of the village ana couniry
adjacent; ' for which - reason "they
could hot well afford to spare 'him;
and at the same time they thought

mysterious hiding place-where his
daughter anu wic lanuues ui mo
other two prisoners were- hidden.
No direct allusion was made to this
at the present time, however, as all
efforts by either threats or promises
had failed on former occasions.
The doctor's sentence was that - ho
be kept in confinement until he saw
fit to tako the oath of allegiance, or
give his sacred word that ne would
not attempt to leave tne otaie un
til the present political troubles
were over. This sentence was re
ceived in silence and with a glanco
of disdain and contempt, tho prison
er was remanded to his dungeon.
Upon tho return of the guard tho
third timo they brought - their ro
maining prisoner, Seth Hogan. A
single glance arounu tne room 101a
him that whatever might have been
the sentences of his predecessors,
there was no mercy for him. - The
cold, sullen, vindictivo glances he
met assured him of this. Uudount
edly he marched between the guards
and when placed before the bar a.
flash of bitter scorii shot from his
eves ns thev rested on tho scene.
Turning his head he . encountered
the snake-like glitter of Carver's
eye, as he gloated over his soon-to-be
victim. .
" Facing the judges again, faeth
addressed them thus: "Say whatev
er you have to say! or, do I await
your pleasure?"
The chief again arose and after
going through the same formula as
before, announced the sentence as
follows: "You, Seth liogan, in view
of the aggravated circumstances at
tending your crime, are to be kept
as a dead body; that is without food
or nourishment of any kind, for
thar?" . V . , ;-'..

The speaker paused; the sign of
approval was made, and then the
doomed man, struggling in every
nerve witli tho eflbrt to appear un
moved, replied: "Your worship has

These bitter words, uttered in n
tone in which hate and scorn seemed

voked no rejoinder from any of tho
conclave, but he was - silently led
away to his cell, his fetters were
