residence in Grainger county at 25 min
utes to 1 o'clock, a. m., January 1, 1SS4,
aged 74 years 1 month and 25 days.
Calmly and without a fear as to the fu

seme neighbor or friend who has the
equisitc facts in her history will send

Notwithstanding the disagreeable
weather the Christmas holidays passe I
r II pleasantly and without accident or
iocident to mar tbe pleasaut festivities.
Pleasure and joy held sway. The busi
ness bouses were generally closed, and
the employers and employes gave them
selves up to the innocent pleasure of
the day. At the Methodist church the
Sabbath-school children greeted with
songs and recitations, while their pa
rents and friends renewed almost for
gotten friendships. In shert, it was a
day of gladness and home jollification,
and may we all have many happy re
turns of it.
Two professional wrestlers, Prof.
Willie, of Charleston, S. C, and Prof.
Watson, of Nashville, Tenn., wrestled
in this place on the 20th ulL and 1st
lust., for wagers of $50 and $23 aside,
with net door receipts to the winner.
The first match Tras won by Willie : and
the second by Watson. Willie claims
to be the ex-champion wrestler- of the
world. Be this as it may, be Is certain
ly well trained and would be hard to
handly by any athlete In his favorite
style of wrestling, that of the G ni co
Roman. This is tbe first professional
hugging that Morristown baa ever wit
nessed publicly. Privately, it rx ay be
an old affair.
CoL C W. Charlton, we see from the

we hope C1. Charlton will be success

manyjefforts and as wise strategy as whs
manifested in the legislative experi
ments of potter Graves, ia the good old
days lacg syne, we ar still bodily and
heartily fur Charlton. He is competent,
energetic and public spirited: He is
honest, sensible and persistent and soon
er or later will make a chief executive
of whom the citj will be proud. The
inevitable result had for many reasons
better happen now.

out to him In th's latest affliction.

A few days before Christmas, Jacob
Campbell, confined in our jail charged
with the theft of Dan. Taylor' horse
and buggy, an account of whose cap
ture In North Carolina by Marshal Bart
ley we gave at the time, succeeded In
making an escape from the Jail and tak
Ing Williom Ward, a colored trusty
with him. Ward, it stems, who had
charge of the slops of the jail, furnish
ed Campbell with a wire bucket bale
from which he fashioned one of the
most unique and perfct keys we ever
Raw, ancLJt turned the cage bolt as easi
ly as tbe true key. Getting out of the
cage, Campbell and Ward burnt a hole
through the double floor of Jbe jail, in
a part remote from the guard room, and
through this landed, into the coal cellar
where they raised a window and escap
ed to the country. But tbeir liberty was
of short duration. Both 'the fugitives
were captured the next night- by John
Hollo way and a deputy sheriff of Grain
ger county, as was also on the same
hunt Wm. Sneed, colored, sentenced to
the pcoi'entiary, and whose previous
escape from our jail it now appears bad
been planned and accomplished through
WarJ.. The famous McGuire is now
the only refugee from our jail, 'and
hopes are entertained of soon restoring
him to his former cage.
Decades of years ago, when we were
more juvenile by forty years than we
are to-day, we bad occasion more than
once to lament the inattention given to
strangers, and especially to boys, who
were unknown to those who occupied
cabins at the annual Methodist camping
place, We are glad to bo reminded of
those old, happy days, and by one, too,
who had better : luck on his first visit
than attended urs. ' - The Rev. J: M.
McTeer, late presiding elder of the
Wj thevlllc district, is publishing some
very interesting autobiographical rem
iniscences in the IloUton Methodist. The
scene of bis first installment is laid in
Blount county. . His parents were Old
School Presbyterians and he was con
victed and converted under the persua
sive oratory of a" Cumberland Presby
terian preacher, at Sinking Creek, 1843.
Having made a protession it religion,
the perplexing question fer him to 'de
cide was what denomination to j"in.
How a satisfied stomach and the ram
aritin . attention of Rev.-" GrcnsfleTd
Tayler more persuasive and Christian
izing than the phenomenal 'more straw'
made him a warrior in the Methodist
camp is thus pleasantly told :
" I was onsidering- the subject two
weeks, and was undecided, when I
went to a Methodist camp meeting at
Middle Settlements, in Blount county.
Imagine a boy on a camp ground, an
entire stranger to all, sitting on a stump
while dinner was going on. and no in
vitation to eat ! That boy was the writ
er. I thought the Cumberlands would
not treat me thus. In the midst of my
agony a nicely dressed, polite young
gentleman approached me and inquired,
Are you a stranger here ?' I told him
I was. 'Have you had yourd:nner?'
No, sir, I tive not. 'Come with me
and get your dinner.' After dinner he I
said, 'TtiH is my father's tent; you can
feel yourself perfectly free to come in at
any time, And make it your home dur
ing your stay.' That young gentleman
is the Rev. G. Taylor, of the Holston
Conference. I have loved him from that
day to this. I thought then, and Ftill
think, be is as clevtr as the Cumber
lands ! Brethren, take care of tlie boys
on the camp ground who behave them
selves." P&RSOXAL.

The pathos so powerfully displayed by

of such a telling nature, as to convulse

LETTER FROM SNEED VILLE.
Sseedville, Tenn., Dec. 20. .
Tu the Editor of The Morriatown Gazette r
Notwithstanding the mud, blazing of
skyrockets, bursting of fire-crackers,
rattle of musketry and roar of anvils,
the exhibition a, the close of the first
term of
THE MCKISXEY HIGH SCHOOL,
for this year, was highly entertaining
and listened to by a large and apprecia
tive audience. The speeches by Messrs.
Lewis Campbell, Brownlow Collins,
Sherman Goodman and Charlie Frost,
though ajl boys, were after' the manner
of ffietf.' The es?ays- of "Misses Martha
Trent, Minnie McNeil, Sarah Harrison,
Cordie Campbell, 'Dora -Coleman and
Minnie Biittry, adding grace and beau
ty to the occasion, fell upon the ears of
the hearers soft as a summer shower and
made the boys grin all the next day.
The drama, "A Little More Cider," ac
ted by Misses Eldora Harrison, Carrie
Tyler and Flora Quillin, and Messrs.
Uint. Campbell, Commodore Collins,
Robert Sea, James Quillin and Lewis
Campbell, was fun for all, and the only
fears we have is, our school being in
corporated, we might suggest to our
merchants how to properly flavor their
cider. We can't afford to quit the sub
ject without mentioning the song, Mr.
and Mrs. Brown, (in other words, a
family fuss,) so well sung by Mr. Fur
geson and Miss Mattie Campbell. It
very sensibly reminds us of the advant
ages which Mr. Payne had in having no
home, when he wrote his famous Home,
Sweet Home. Had it not been so, it
might not have been so sweet.
TH1 CnKISTSTAS THEE
came next, arrayed in beautiful strings
f popcorn, notchy paper of all colors,
and loaded and weighed down- with
beautiful presents coming from warm
hearts and liberal souls, casting their
bread upon the waters and hapiogboon
to gather up better halves in return,
and toy candy and maple sugar enough
to make tho children wish that Christ
mas would last air the ytar. The tree
and the day, with all they both mean,
were aptly set forth in a ehart and well
timed talk by Mr. Henry T. Campbell.
This, if our memory properly serves us,
was supplemented or prefaced by. some
thing from your writer. At any rate he
found himself recovering from a severe
shock, while the tree -was being strip
ped, and was able to answer to his name
in a tone ".sufficiently audible to direct
the kind carrier where to deposit ono of
Dr. Jayne'a almanacs for '84. - 1 ;

DIED.
Ia Morristown, Tenn., Wednesday, 9 o'clock,
, H January 2d, 1834, after an illness of seven
teen flays, from malarial feyer, little Macd A.,
the beloved daughter of B. t'. Mitchell, Esq.,
quietly breathed her last, apparently without
pain, and ber gentle spirit winged its niglit to-toe
nappy realms above, bne was aged 6 years and
10 months. Funeral services were held at the
residence on Friday morning at 10 o'clock, con
ducted by Rev. Gsorge , Simpson, pastor of the
3d. K. Church, Soutu, in a most appropriate aud
touching manner, In the presence of large body
of mourning relatives and friends. Maud, al
though a young child, was a faithful and an earn
est little Sunday-chool worker. She loved Jesus
aud delighted in singing His songs and working
in His vineyard. At tne time of her dealn sue
was a member of aant Betty Crowell's class in the
Southern Methodist Sunday-school; she was also
an active member of the Carter Missionary So
cioty.and did noble work for the cause of the
lxrdHnd the enlightenment of the heathen. She
had a sweet disposition, and her every action waa
characterized with love and obedience, and purity
of heart. Maud was affectionate and obedient to
papa and mamma kind and gentle to brothers and
sisters and always wore kind smiles and a win
ning heart for her companions and friends . . She
will be sadly missed by aU who knew her espec
ially by her Sabbath-school class and play-mates.
We extend our hand in sympathy to the grief
stricken parents. "The Lord gave, and the .Lord
bath taken away ; blessed be the name of the
Lord." "Suffer little children to come nnto me."
FAREWELL TO LITTLE MAUD.
"Must thou go? and must thou leave us?
Must that dear word, "Farewell" be said ?
Now all thy parents' hope and pride
Forever gone, forever sleeping.
Beneath the sod,, in sweet repose, . ;
Is laid a mother's dearest pride :
A flower that scarce had waked to life,
And light, and beauty, ere it died.
God in his wisdom has recalled
The precious love his boon had given ;
And thongh the casket moulders here.
The gem is sparkling now in Heaven."
Died, at the residence of her son, Mr. K. M.
Ejipes, Knox county. Twin., on the 11th of De
cember, 1883, Mrs. Fbancis Eppks, aged 94 years,
7 months and 17 days, after an illness of four
years duration. She was born in Grainger coun
ty April "24th, 1789, the sister of John Easley,
Esq of happy memory, of a large, well-known
and honored family. Her husband, Mr. Wm.
Eppes, served with honor in the war of 1812, and
she was one of the few pensioned widows of that
war. Mrs . Eppes was a widow for 63 years, and
a consistent member of the Baptist church for
over 60 years. She died without a murmur, In
tbe full hope of a blessed immortality beyond this
vale cf tears. She left a son and daughter, npw
on the decline of. life, and a large connexion
throughout East Tennessee, to mourn her loss.
In the Pilot House.
"Yes, sir; ibis kind of work obliges
a man to keep sober as a judge. Of all
men in the world, steamboat pilots and
railroad engineers should let liquor
alone.' For their clearness f sight and
coolness of head depends th3 safety of
life and property." -
Keeping his hand on the wheel as he
said this, Mr. A. Erockman, of No. 29i
Silver street, Chicago, ad led: "Ol

18 Plilaiepi Times 1881
The Times will enter upon the new year strong
er and more prosperous than ever before tn its
history more widely read and quoted, more
heartily commended, and more fiercely criticized,
with a more complete organization, and an abler
staff of contributors and with the same indepen
dence aud fearlessness that has made it success
ful nnd powerful in the past. 1
The Times has no party to follow, no candi
dates to advance, but will meet every issue, as it
haa ever done, with consistent devofion to the
right, to honest government, and the public well
fare . And, while maintaining its position as the
leading journal of Philadelphia, it will aim to be
continually in the advance in all that can add
value to a newspaper. ;
The value of a newspaper Is not In its size or
display, but in the intelligence and care, the con
ciseness and freshness with which it is edited
The Times spends lavishly for news from all
parts of the world, but all its dispatches are care
fully edited and .condensed, in order to give the
complete news of the day in the most concise and
attractive shape, and with it a large variety of
entertaining and instructive readiDg. The best
writers at borne and abroad are employed to en
rich its columns, and to make it a journal adapted
both to busy men and to the leisure of the home
circle, a welcome visitor to intelligent and honest
citizens of every political, religious, and social
taste. :-:t. .. ;
The Weekly Times is altogether different from
the weekly newspapers of twenty years ago. " The
day of those papers is gone by. . The. telegraph
and better local newspapers everywhere, especial
ly iu the thriving centres of rural population,
have made the old weekly metropolitan unsatisfy
ing . Those that cling to their ancient usages
have lost their hold on our forward-moving peo
ple; they are but shadows of their former great
ness, and theyliave but a shadow of their former
power. Those popers have had their- usefulness,
but it is gone; and, with it, they "are going, too .
It was not the fault of the papers; it was the im
provement of ths country that brought about the
change.;: Met and Women,, wherever-they live,
naw requira-fresh news and they require more
than ne ws. , ,
Thi Weekly Times gathers 1 Off the types of
every passing week whatever has lasting interest
to the people at large, and sets it before them in
such generosity of paper and print as would have
astonished us all twenty years aeo.
