LEVY’S—-
HANNIGAN'S QUEER BOOKS.
Hieroglyphics Introduced ia City Court as
Evidence Yesterday.
City court spent yesterday in hear
ing an issue between Hannigan, a
white farm laborer,
Barnwell, the plantation owner who
employed him. It waea unique case
and bad several amusing features,
Hannnigan is an ignorant man who
claims that his rights have been
trampled upon and bis earnings de
nied him because he is too ignorant to
look out for himself. Barnwell claims
that Hannigan has received every
cent due him either in goods or
money.
The amount of the laborer’s claim
was $240. He exhibited in court a
most original and peculiar set of
books, which he explained, not with
out some difficulty of expression on
his part and some lack of comprehen
sion on the part of the jury. Hanni
gan can neither read nor write, but,
as an unique accountant, he seems to
be a brillant success.
In these books of his he indicated
the various articles he received from
Captain Barnwell by signs strange
and uncouth. A long straight mark
meant a sack of flour; a crooked mark,
a pound of bacon ; a cross mark, a bat;
a small circle, a shirt; a large cucle, a
pair of pants, and so on. The jury
will have a time estimating the
amount of Hannigan’s account from
the books which he has introduced as
evidenoe.
The case went to the jury at 7
o’clock.
LE HARDY LEAVES
On the Theokla at Daylight—Savannah
Friends Are Anxious.
Reporters of the local press and cor
respondents of the out-of-town news
papers spent yesterday in searching
for Dr, J. C. Le Hardy, the missing
health officer of Savannah. Dr. Le
Hardy, as was told in these columns
yesterday morning, came to Bruns
wick on the tug Theckla with the in
tention of inspecting the national
quarantine here. The Times told the
result of Dr. Le Hardy’s visit—how he
was informed by Dr. Burford that if
he should land at quarantine, lie
would be detained in isolation for live
days.
Dr. Le Hardy didn’t care to stop.
He came up to the city on the Theckla
Wednesday night, but could not
be found by the reporters, and
it was not until late yesterday after
noon that it was learned that he had
sailed on the Theckla at daylight, pre
sumably on bis return to Savannah.
Yesterday’s Savannah Press says
that Dr. Le Hardy’s friends in that
city, reading of his experience here,
were disposed to be uneasy about him,
as they know that be is a great stick
ler for professional proprieties and
they want to know how he feels at
being treated to a dose of his own
medicine.
To Writs About Brunswick.
L. D. Bingham, of Baltimore, repre
senting the Manufacturers’ Record,
