Davis looked around the room as though looking for some and other well known high standing and character, as well as by the county records, First, Judge Gantt opposed, in August 1870, the issuance of $150,- 000 of bonds to the Tebo & Neosho railroad and dratted and spread o the records of the county court Judge Stephenson’s protest, representing the opposition to these bonds, with- weapon, and demanded to see Maj Gen.

An ugly war relic unexpectedly developed in the sawmill of the Paducah lumber company, at Padu- cah, Ky., on June 17. In cutting a huge cypress log, which was culled from a raft of timber just out of the Tennessee river, the saw grated upon some substance which threatened to demolish it before the machinery could be stopped. In investigation found an 18-pound loaded bomb- shell embedded in the log, in which the sharp teeth ot the saw had traced a cut a third ot an inch deep. Noth- ing outside the log indicated where the shell had erfterec, probably 25 years bark remaining smooth and undisturbed.
