As the triid_of Captain W, .1, Fagan, late Tiiastor of the propeller William Ed waul*, comes up before the probate co,u it In bai- dusky early In July, for alleged threats to kill Mr. V. Files, of Milan, we'deem It but justice to Captain Fagan to make-■public a few facts w blull have cume to our knowledge in regard to the manor, and can assert that they ale substantially collect, as Captain Fagan Is incapable of seeking justice by vvay of threats and bragndono, by flourishing re¬ volvers and loud talk. Captain Fagan Went quietly to Milan to have a settlement with Mr. Fries, in il-gard to some money due him, and to tender his resignation as mastei of the William Edwards, which he had taken caieof npto March lOtli, so that he might be enabled to take anothei command. Mr. Fries oficied Captain Fagan inducements to con¬ tinue In ills employ, vvliich ' aptaln Fagan declined, and It was not until the 20th of March tlujt Captain Fagan was informed by | lettei from Mr. Fries that ills services would I not be lequlrcd foi the season ot 1881. Therefore, It Is evident that wnno ill ills posed person felt It hiLiinilient upon him to cliciilate the false lepoils that wcie con- veyeil to Mr. Fries, if he received anj.
