Old Fort Mew.
Correspondence of The Meemenjfer.
Quite a deal of excitement was
created iu our usually peaceful
village this afternoon by the action
of a joung man, Hugh Bean, who,
coming in 011 au east-bound pas
senger tram from Asheville pretty
full ol "sow paw," attempted to
take possession of the store of Mr.
J. R. Ciawford, and succeeded for
a short time in so doing; but Mr.
Eddie Crawford, rallying to the
support of his father, an encounter
ensued, in which Mr. Bean received
quite severe wounds in the face
and was taken away by his friends.
What a teirible thing whiskey is

In an account of the cutting af
fray between Henry Wilson and
Bud Kelley, sent the Democrat by
its local correspondent here, an in
justice, without intent I suppose,
is done Wilson, who is a youug
man of very good reputation and
not a drinker. The facts as I gather
them and as brought out at the
separate trials, are that Kelley
(instead of Wilson) was the attack
ing party under the influence not
only of liquor but jealousy, a feel
ing which since the world began
has prompted men to more desper
ate deeds than any other influence.
