Novelists who, like the late Charles Rend, search the newspapers of the day for plots and strange events that can be effectively used in fiction, should not fail to put into their serap books a record of the singular contest that has beoen car- ried on over a grave in Atlanta. Thirteen persons were killed n ac- cident on the Georgia Pacific railroad in December last. Among the vietims v a man supposed to have been James Pierce Weaver, a resident of Texas, U til 1833 Weaver had hved i Indianapoli; and his wife, whom he had descrted, was residing thete when the accident oceur- red. A day or two after the a lent she received i a letter mailed by some p senger who had been on the wrecked train an account of the collision and a business card like those which her husband had lived in Indi: Sheim- mediately went to Atlanta with several friends, and there 1dentilied the body as that of her husband. The cemetery au- thorities ordered that it should be given to her, and she was preparing to take it Mrs. Abbie Bell Pierce, of x., declared thatit was the body of her husband, J."W. Pierce, a dealer in live stock. = The court grantoed an injunction, restraining Mrs. Weaver from taking the body, and a swit for the possession of the same was declared in favor of Mrs Pieree.

He recovered and returned to Texas, It was admitted that Weaver had been !|vin;,v in Fort Worth under the name of J. W. Pierce. Several persons who had known him both in Texas and in Indiana swore that it was his body which they saw in Atlanta. The physician who dressed the bullet wound ‘in Weaver's neck examined the body, found the sear, and supported Mrs. Weaver’s claim, Other persons swore that they had found marks on the hody whi corrosponded with marks that Weave: borne in life. There was in a book taken from the body handwriting which experts de- clared to be the writing of the person who had written the letters which Mrs. Waoaver had received from her husband. It was admitted that the body was that of a man who hadcarried the name of J. W. Pierce, a name which Weaver had assumed while living in Texas, and that it was the body of a man who had been Living in the vicinity of Fort Worth.
