characters tried at Columbia South Carolina,
few days since for attempting to make an Odd Fellow,

fellow named Barrentine. The brethren told him
that if he would enter their order he would be
obliged to do any work, as he would be allowed
one hundred dollars year for his support, soon as
he duly initiated which was to be done by
branding. Tempted by the prospect thus held out,
Barrentine agreed to the process. The ceremonies
were then performed by applying cattle brand, hav-
ing letter within diamond times posteriori
On the trial. Barren.ine was pressed so hard by the
defendants council while giving his testimony, that
he insisted giving the Court ocular demonstration
Of his injuries. The Judge, however, ruled this evi-
dence out, being merely cumulative and under the
circumstances entirely unnecessary The defendants
were found guilty, and they then appealed.
