Death took from Asheville last night another oi those good men who have been identified with the city lor many years ami known by every one of the older inhabitants, at least- Dr. M. I,.

Mure 13, and for awhile it was thought death would ensue in a few hours. The sick man rallied, however, although he rec ognized that he was iiuhle to die almost at auj moment and so expressed hid self to friends who visited him. In speak ing of the approaching end he said death had no terror for him, as he was ready to go whenever the summons should come.

He did not practice surgery because of n crippled hand, caused by the occidental disclurne of a gun years ajo. lie was especially Btic.-essfui in the treatment ol meningitis, diphtheria and typhoid fever. One characteristic of the mini, and one that won for him the blessings of count less patients, was that it mattered not how poor the person who called him lie was us quick to r spond as if it had been g person of wealth. Another fact olten remarked upon concerning Dr. .Wilson's life was that he was never heard to say nught against unyone. II he had nothing ol praise to sav he said nothing. It is saying little to state that in the death of Dr. Neilson Asheville loses a truly good citizen. He wits of sturdy in tegrity and lovable character and every, body who ever knew him was his friend. His death is regretted alike by his large circle of relatives and the vastly larger citeleof those who were proud to lie num licred among hislricnds. His memory will always be cherished and bit long life ol virtue and goodness will be pointed to as a inoi'el (or generations that arc to come niter him.

Mr. Shelby, in continuing to outline Breekiuridgc's clclense yesterday, referred to Miss Pol lard's age at the time Colonel Brecki ridge met her; and he claimed that she was then not 1 7, but between 20 and 21 years old. He contended that Miss Pol lard had admitted that she had submit ted to Rhodes. It was she who suggested that they ride instead ol going to the concert, and during the course of that ride unduly iutimnt; i relations wete established w ith witlingfl.it on lur part. There was no meeting at the public library next day to arrange the Rhodes case; no arrange incut lor going to Lexington; no bogus telegram sent bv the defendant as excuse lor her request that she be at lowed to go home.
