Sampson county, a. (J., on the 11th oi
October, 1825, and died at his home in
Clinton on the morning of November the
11th, 1885, aged just sixty years and one
month. His paternal grandfather, Alex
ander McKoy, came from Scotland and
settled in Iredell county. His father, Dr.
William McKoy, came to Clinton about
seventy years ago. His maternal grand
father was Allmand Mali, who resided in
Wilmington and edited the Gazette there
for several years. . A devoted husband, a
fond and indulgent father, how much he
loved and cherished his family only God
can estimate. His devotion to his daugh
ter. Mrs. Griees. was sublime, and many of
his friends date his decline from her death.

Tbe Lecture Last Nlsfat on Spliit-
-; A reasonably, sized audience gathered in:
the hall of - the " Library Association last
night to hear the lecture of . Rev. Mr.
Ambler' on 'Spiritualism.'' : At 8 o'clock
hewas introduced by Rev. F. W. E. Pes-
chau, and proceeded tothe discussion j of
the theme announced-After a short and
yet exhaustive historical sketch of the rise
and progress of ; Spiritualism on this con
tinent, and ita.introduction into and growth
in England, - the lecturer divided . the
subject into-first,.the peculiar phenomena
that have been spontaneous , in their" ap
apearances in daylight and without 4 any
special - preparation; ; and - secondly 'the
made, up and arranged phenomena occur
ring at sonedeanes '
I'-The.-speaker- gave' some ititereating ac-'
counts of the Fox family's experience with
the jappiDg8;.bow the excitement. spread;
skeptics1 arose' but--were overcome and-
joined 'the ranks of full believers in the
spiritual .origin of these phenomena,' He
knew this narrative was well known to his
audience except to the portion of it who
were too young to remember the. early ; be
ginning of the Rochester rapprags. "
The speaker .then gave some interesting
det&iidof the conversion of several eminent
men to the credibility of table-rapping
and table tipping. He mentioned how Mr.
Thackeray had, after- Witnessing in New
Yprk - a tableioaded with glasses decan
ters, dishes, and. all the paraphernalia of a
dessert lifted from the floor fully two feet,
declared his belief that the motive power
was spiritual." Whether Thackeray held
this belief until his death he did net know.
An account of a remarkable seance which
appeared in the CornhiU, Magazine,' when
Mr. Thackeray was its editor, read like a
chapter in the Arabian Nights.' -
The beiief in apparation, as analyzed by
Robert Dale Owen, next received, the lec
turer's attention ; he doing him the justice
to believe that he was entirely honest. The
lecturer believed that many -of the phenom
ena were worthy of credence, as ne nad
seen some of them himself. Many of
these so called dark seances were frauds.
He believed that many - of these things
were entirely inexplicable- The amount of
contradiction as to the existence of spirits
and their dwelling places, their habits, and
every thing connected with themj was a
mass of the most superlative contradiction.
He did not believe that they were - those of
disembodied spirits, but if he must give an
opinion be would say that they were fallen
aneels. Although knowing the cunning
ness of the devil, he could hardly believe
that he would be ihc author of such a
bungling farago as thu .uu'. iuted to spi
rita. '. .''.;;. - -., h:: . .-',:'-.

The presentation of facts was striking, the :

well answered. ; j

The lecture wad a well written production
and was both instructive and edifying. It is
to be regretted that more were ' not present
to encourage by their presence, aid with
their purses, and to hear and learn.
The Fence Cases.
Yesterday was the day set apart in the
Criminal Court by his honor Judge Meares
for the trial of what are known as the
"Fence Cases," in which a number of far
mers ana others throughout the county
were indicted for keeping unlawful fences
during crop time. A test case Was made
the State vs. Wm. Blood worth. Mr. Mars-
den Bellamy appeared for the defendant
and Solicitor Moore for the State , The
jury rendered a special verdict as follows:
"The jury find that the defendant was
the occupier and cultivator of a farm, and
that he did not have and keep a fence five
feet high around the same, during the crop
season of the year 1885., But whether the
defendant iB guilty or not guilty under the
bill of indictment the jury are not instruct
ed, and pray the instruction of the Court.
If the Court shall be of the opinion that
the defendant under this finding of fact is
guilty, then the jury find that he is guilty;
but if not, then that he is not guilty."
Whereupon, the Court gave judgment
for the defendent, and from which judg
ment the Solicitor; for the State craved an
appeal. The appeal was granted.

The piece had its initial production in this

of the season. Afterwards it was played at
the Brooklyn Theatre, and the Eagle of
that city said of its presentation there: -
"Notwithstanding the lateness of the
season, the hot weather, and the outdoor
attractions which naturally follow, 'A
Brave Woman' is playing to profitable busi
ness at the Brooklyn Theatre. , The singing
of the 'White Squall' by Mr. Hardie alone
being worth the price of admission. Until
this engagement, it was only known to Mr.
Hardie's friends that he possessed bo fine a
voice, which would be a valuable acquisi
