ITesterday's Charlotte News says of the family of a former Salis buriata: t .rkl 1 49 A rm wrn ci kiln tllf this morning at Mr. T. L Tal and bert'sl corner of Brevard I Ninth streets. Dr. Hawley, city yes- physician, was called there terdav; to see Mrs. Talbert, who was broken out wi$h an eruption. Dr. Hawley last night pronounced it smallpox, and this morning put the house under quarantine. The occupants of the house are Mr. and Mrs. Talbert and child, Mrs. Talbert's mother and brother. ! This afternoon Mr. Talbert and the baby broke out with the disease. ! "Last week Mr. Owen Talbert was sick at the house. He was br ke out with an eruption that the d actor pronounced chicken-' pox. He recovered and left the house, but is still in town." I This morning's Observer says: xtai.s. j.aiuciiB uuuuiuuu pro vents her being taken to the pent and it is likely that she and the other afflicted members of the family will be cared for in their ! The "Mrs. Talbert's mother" of above is doubtless ; Mr. spoken Talber 7s mother, as she went to Charlo tte several days ago to visit her sod WARD A MARRIED MAN. He Said That He and Miss Newell Were Also Married. The EStatesville Landmark, re ferring further to the attempted and Jolin Ward, says: Tuesilay moruing Mr. Laxy got a letter tironi vvaru, ueanng date of Monday v in; which Ward claim ed thatCVliss Newell was his wife: that the reason he went away , and left her at Elm wood was because he didn't want to kill Levy on her (Miss well's) account; but that he had killed a man lor less prov ocation and been acquitted. Af ter some more talk of thii kind this bold, bad man proceeded to tell MrJ Levy that he was coming to Statesville Tuesday to claim his wife (jV (Levy) iss Newell), and that if he tor anybody else interfered they would do so at their peril. This great bluff didn't frighten Mr. Levy but he telegraphed Mr. Banks at Salisbury and the latter came and took Miss Newell back to Salisbury with him the same evening. It is unnecessary to say that Wjard didn't show up here Tuesday. ; "Miss Newell's father, who is a Jewish rabbi, was in Statesville Wednesday and told what he knew qf Ward and bis daughter's infatuation for him. The man's name iu John O. Ward and he has a wile ana cniia in jaicnmonu, who life neighbor to Mr. Newell and it Is reported that he has a wife injGoIdsboro also. The Wards and Newells sustained neighborly relations in Richmond and Ward and his wife often visited the Newell home, which consists of the father land daughter. It was dur- mg tnis time inai ine aitacnmem was formed, but Mr. Newell knew nothing of it, as he was fre- i quentlV away from home teaching.
