At the close of the Revolutionary war
Andrew Jackson went to Burke county,
North Carolina, and applied to Waightstill
Avery to take him .as a boarder at his
country home and instruct , him as a law
student. Col. Avt-ry told him thai he bad
j ust moved to the plac5 and had .. built
nothing but cabins, and could not grant his
request. Jackson - went to Salisbury,
studied la vr there and settled at Jouesboro,
until the new county of Davidson (with
Nashville as the county seat) was establish
ed, Nashville becoming subsequently the
capital of Tennessee V 3 ?' : : "
Several years latter Aysry appeared m a
lawsuit at Jonesboro as opposing counsel
to Jackson' and ridiculed the position taken
by Jackson, who had pri ced ed him in the
argument. Jackson considered the argu
ment " insulting ai.d " sent " him the
challenge. Col. Avery was ; raised a
Puritan. He graduated at . Princelo-i with
thehighC8t honors in 1760, and remained
there a year as a tutor," under the celebrat
ed ionathau Edwatds and the famous Dr
W itherepoon . v ho signed . the Declaration
Of Independence as a represeniaiiye oi

and was opposed on principle to duelling,
but be sd .far yielded , to the imperious
custom of jlhe time as to accept the chal
lenge and go to the field, with CoU (after
ward Governor) Adair, of Kentucky, as his
second. After Jhe usual preliminaries he
allowed Jacksonjto ; shoot at him, but aid
not return the; fire. Thereupon, having
shown that he was not afraid to be shot at,
Avery walked up to' ,ybung Jackson - and
delivered a lecture to him.'yery much in
the style a father would use in t lecturing a
son. Avery was very calm, and his talk to
the brave young man who had fired at him
was full of good sense; dispassionate and
high In tone, and was heard with great at

agreed that the trouble must go no further.

The second week of the General . As
sembly ends with few new laws upon
the statute books. ; There is little done
as a rule, when a new Governor is to be
inaugurated until the ceremonies at
tending the event are over. It is esti
mated that at least 10,000 people attend
ed the inaugurat ion of Governor Glenn
last Wednesday and from 7"00 to 8000
"passed around the circle' at .the pub
lic reception In the rotunda of the capi-
tol the same, evening. The receiving
party consisted of all the uewly : elected
state officers and their wives and daugh
ters who were handsomely and appro-
.pirately attired for the occasion. - Elab
orate preparations bad been made, by
the local committee and the capitoj
proved Xo be a very appropriate place
to extend a : ' welcome hand" to the
new Governor and Lis associates. The
mansion was not available on account
of sickness in Governor Ay cock's fam
ily, his little girl having diptheria some
I days previous.
Governor Aycock received a reat
ovation when he arose JU present "his
successor. He retires wun tne piauait:
"Well done, good and faithful servarit'i

held by the people should be most
gratifying to him. The teachers of the
state presented him with achest of sil
ver consisting of -six pieces costing $500,
nnnn each of which are 'engraved the
words. "To Charles Brantly Aycock,

thetic scene and many tears were shed

as follows:. - , r r

the people cheered lustily. : Aycock re

took the oath ad ministered by ' Chief
Justice - Clark. The : inaugural - ball
was given in the Olivid Raney Library
immediately following the . public re
ception ; Wednesday evening, the at

of great social enjoyment. . The new
