JUDGE HÜGHES DIED YESTERDAY The End of His Long and Useful Career. WAS ONCEA BRILLIANT EDITOR Fcii£üt a Duel Wilb Co!. William E. Cemeron and Wounded Him.Widely Known In Riebmond, sad Much of ills Life Spent Here. Juago Robert W. Hughes died at his country home, near Abingdon, at 1:15 o'clock yesterday morning. Tho end of his long and useful life .was not unexpected. lie had been in failing health for some years. Long be¬ fore ho retired from tho bench ho rea¬ lized that age was telling upon him, ¡but, while ho was eligible under the Federal laws to retire, he held on ano* continued to discharge tho duties of his office until about four years ago, when he asked to be retired, and was succeeded: by Judge Waddill. When the end came the Judge was surrounded by his sons, Messrs. Robert ;M. and (Floyd Hughes, prominent law¬ yers of Norfolk, and by the family of the former. Mr. Floyd Hughes' family were detained in Norfolk on account of the sickness of a member. Tho Judge passed away as quietly as one falling into a gentle sleep. The end was. apparently, painless. The funeral will take place from St. Thomas' Episcopal Church, Abingdon, to¬ morrow, and the interment will be made in Abingdon Cemetery, in the square which contains Governor John IB. Floyd's remaî:»». It in expected that many promi- JT*DGE ROBERT W. HEG HE S. nent people will attend. WELL KNOWN IN RICHMOND. Judge Hughes spent much of his life In Richmond. He made this city his ',headyuaxtirs when on the bench, and be¬ fore that time was here as an editor, ¡or rather as a writer on the Examiner. ¡Ho was born in Powhatan county. Va., on Juno 0, ÌS2L and was, therefore, a lit¬ tle ??-er «eighty years of age. He was reared by the widow of General Carring- lon, who was the daughter of Francis S. li'ivston and Sally Campbell, the latter being tho daughter of the hero of King's Mountain. The Judge received his euuea- tion at Caldwell Institute, N. C, and taught school in that Stato when quite a young man. He lilted himself for the ¡practice of law, and practiced his «pro¬ fession in Richmond from 1S4G to 1*555. ¡He early took a lively interest in jour¬ nalism, and from lisöö to ·1?£>7 was the ea'i- lor of tlie Richmond Examiner. From May, ISSI, to April, 1SG5, he was one of the brilliant trio that edited that journal, his associates being John M. Daniel and Patrick Henry Aylett- Judge Hughes used to write what was called the ''ar¬ gumentative'' editorials. Daniel died as the dark hours of dissolution gathered over tlie cause he had so brilliantly advocated. Aylett was killed in the Capitol disaster In 1S70. Although Judge Hughes had been a violmit tecessionist, he, at the surren¬ der and fall of the Confederacy, considered it best that we anould make irienas ot our late enemies, and he at once aligned himself with the Republican party. Jn 1SGÖ-6·' he edited the Richmond Republic. He soon, also, founded and with signal ability conducted the Richmond Journal, which immediately took front rank as the Jeacling Republican newspaper of the Southern State?. HE FOUGHT CAMERON. Colonel W. E. Cameron, who was later Governor and now a member of the Con¬ stitutional Convention, some months later assumed editorial control of the Pe¬ tersburg Index, and the'editorial friction .between these two papres led to a duel, in Which Colonel Cameron received a broken rib at the lirst ftre. Judpe Hughes challenged Colonel Cam¬ eron to fight, and the gage was accepted. An attempt was made to bring the duel off at Chester. Va., but it was found im- 0>ractical>lc, and so the two men, with their seconds and physicians, crossed the .border and fought in North Carolina. Judge Hughes was untouched, but the bullet from his revolver tore a flesh wound across the.chest of his adversary. When this wound was declared not dan¬ gerous. Judge Hughes asked for another shot, but the second's refused to allow the matter to go any further. RAN FOR GOVERNOR. In 1.ST3 Judge Hughes was the Republi¬ can canaidate for the Governorship cf Virginia against General Kemper. his suc¬ cessful Democratic opponent. On Jan¬ uary. 1S74. he was by President Grant commissioned L*. S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Virginia, ind at enee «removed his residence to Nc-foik, hiing all the while his beautiful .-esic! mce ntier. Abingdon as a summer home. In his capacity as judge he served with mari-:ed ability and distinction till VYbrcr.ry V2. 1SSS, when owing to his a-lvaneed age he tendered his resignation, to take effect on tho 4th of March î'ollowng. u ought not to be left unsaid of Judge Hughe « that though differing radically in political alignment and belief trom th?. grcnt mass of his Virginia fellow-citizens, he never omitted an opportunity to öefnehfi* them.

Price, of the Hoiston Conference, speaking of Ironal, says: I suffered with my Kidneys and Sciatica. I used various remedies, but no per¬ manent relier. My digestion not being the best, Dyspepsia and Headache fre¬ quently occurred. I began the use of Ironal for these troubles, and, to my sur¬ prise, soon saw that my Sciatica trouble was disappearing and my p*eneral health improving. Not satisfied that it was Ironal, G induced the Rev. G. W. Miles, who was similarly affected, to try this remedy, and it soon relieved him. Six other Iritnds usedit for similar trouble, and all experienced' the same relief. From Gilpin, Langdon & Co., Wholesale Druggists, Baltimore, Md. : We have been selling Ironal for a number of years, and find thc demand steadily increasing, and" that, too. entirely upon its own merits. We really think some steps should be taken to placo this natural remedy more prominentlv before the American people, and. indeed, before the whole world. It has superior merit, and thc advantage of bfimr Nature's own combination, and is bound to commend itself to the people. We notice the largest demands come from places where It Is longest and best known, which proves that, if you had it generally advertised, you could not man¬ ufacture it fast enough to supply the demand·.

Ironal being recommended to me, I procured a bottle, and in a short time it effected a permanent cure. I have seen its beneficial results in many other cases. We have used it in our family in coses of Colic, with best results. I do not think any family should bo without Ironal in their homes, especially if remote from a physician.

Judge «Hughes was the author of biogra¬ phies of Gen. Jno. B. Floyd and Gen. Jos¬ eph E. Johnston, publlsn;d in ' J.ee and His Lieutenants," 1.SG7; of a volume en¬ titled, *'The Currency .Juîs-I :i," yy.'J; of a volume entitled "Tho American Dol¬ lar," 1S85; and of five volumes ot Uriua States Circuit and District Court reports, entitled "Hughes' Reports," 1S79-S5. He married June 4, 1S50, in the '."o-.ern- or's mansion, Richmond, Miss Eliza M.. Johnston, daughter of Hon. filiarles C. Johnston, a member of Congress. Mrs. Hughes was also an adopted daughter of Mrs. John G?. Floyd, her own father having been drowned v. bile endeavoring to board a vessel at Alexan¬ dria, while on his way to Washington as a member of Congress. He was a brother of General Joseph E. Johnston. Mrs. Hughes died many years ago. The only surviving children are Messrs. Rob¬ ert M. and Floyd ¡Hughes. HIS LITF'E IN RICHMOND. While on tho bench Judge Hughes, when In Richmond, made his headquar¬ ters, as a rule, in the Federal building, where he had a bed-chamber. There he spent much time in reading and writing. He loved the company of men of literary tastes, and many used to go there to spend evenings in his society, and often he would be a guest in the homes of these friends. His faithful attendant, Conrad, stills holds a position in the custom-house, having been retained by Judge Waddill at tho request of his pre¬ decessor. Tho Judge was a ven·- tender-hearted^ man. and was very merciful to prisoners" convicted in his court, generally imposing very light sentences. He was In every rense a splendid man.a man. large of heart as well as of brain. He always managed to retain the highest respect of his political opponents. While a ¡Repub- lican, ho was not an extreme partisan, but always very liberal in his views. Judge Waddill said last night he re¬ garded Judge Hughes as one of the ablest and one of the best men who ever sat upon the bench. He was deeply pained to hear of his old friend's death. Judge Waddill will attend the funeral if his health will permit of his taking the trip. He is suffering from a sore foot that is giving him considerable trouble. Dr. C. W. P. Brock will also probably attend the funeral. HIS ANCESTRY. Judge Hughes camo of very distin¬ guished ancestry. He was the second' son of Jesse Hugt.es and Elizabeth wood- son (nee) Norton. Jesse Hughes, of Mud¬ dy Creek plantation, Powhatan county, Va., was born September 22, ViSS, was married in 1S12 and died in March, 1S22. He was a lawyer and a captain in the War of 1S12. His wife, Elizabeth "v.ood- son Hughes, was born September "5, 171)3, and died duly 12, 1822. One of the cnild- ren of these two, who lived to marry and have children, was John Morton Hughes, who was born February 20, 1313, anu who died in Mobile, Ala., where he lived, September 20, 1£C5, leaving one sur¬ viving child, William Morton Hughes, a druggist in Baltimore, Mi. Another cnild was Klizaboth Jessie Hughes, who mar¬ ried Samuel G. Hughes, of Orange coun¬ ty, N. C; another, and younger child, was Robert W. Hughes, the lirth Robert ¡Hughes, whoso name heads this sketch. Elizabeth Woodson (Morton) Hughes, wife of the above Jesse Hughes, was the daughter of Ilezekiah Morton, of Prince Edward county, Va., and of his wife, Phoebe Moseiey. Captain Kiah Mor¬ ton served throughout thc whole j.erlod of the Revolutionary war; in the latter part of it as captain in the campaigns of Generals Gates antl Greene, in the Car¬ olinas. He was descended in this wise from Dr. John Woodson, of Dorsetshire, England, who came over as surgeon of Sir John Harvey's command, and set¬ tled in Virginia in 1SG5, and whose grand¬ son. Richard, married Anna Smith. Richard and Anna Woodson had, beside six other children, a daughter, Elizabeth, who married Thomas Morton. This pair had. among other children, a son, John Morion, who was in middle life at the beginning of the Revolutionary war, and also formed a company of infantry, em¬ bracing four of his own grown and near¬ ly grown sons. His wife, was Miss Anderson, daughter of a successful English merchant, who lived in Prince Edward county, Va. One of the sons, thus enlisted in the patriot cause, was the above-named Captain Hezekiah -Morton, father oi Elizabeth Wooduon (Morton) Hughes. HIS GRANDPARENTS. The grandparents of Robert W. Hughes were David Hughes, of Muddy Creek plan¬ tation. Powhatan county, Va., and Judith Daniel, his wife, daughter of Chesley Daniel and Judith (Christian) Daniel David Hughes was a captain i- the Revo¬ lutionary war. His eu.est son, Kobert (fourth of tue name), died unmarried. His second son was Jesse, above men¬ tioned. His third chlid was Anne Hart- well, who died unmarried. The great-grandfather of Judge R. W. Hughes was the second Robt. Hughes, of Hughes Creek, Powhatan county, Va., who married Anne Hartwell, of New Kent county. Va. They had three sons, Jesse, Robert and David; and one daugh¬ ter. Fanny. Jesso Hughes was a pioneer and explorer of the mountains in what is now (1SS2) West Virginia. He was a hunter and Indian fighter, and was never married. {See Do Hass' Indian Wars). Hughes river, a branch of tho Little Kanawha, was named after him. His brother, tho third Robert Hughs, inherit¬ ed the Hughes Creek plantation, which was the original seat of the family, by the law of primogeniture. This Robert Hughes had born to him daughters only. ono of whom had surviving descendants. This one married Francis Goode, and thus the. family seat passed to the name of Goode." Their daughter, Fanny, married Rev. John Williams, and went to North Carolina, where they left a numerous offspring. The great-great-grandfather of Judge R. W. Hughes was Robert Hughes, Hie first ono of that name, of Hughes Creek, Powhatan county. Va. OF 'HUGUENOT DESCENT. He married and left sons and daughters, but no list of them and of their mar- liages is now extant, except as to Robert Hughes, tho second of the name, above mentioned. The great-great-great-grand- father of the Judge was Da\-id Hughes, of Hughes Creek, Powhatan county, Va. Records exist only of the facts respect¬ ing Robert Hughes (first) and of the family of his descendant, Robert Hughes (second). Jesse Hughes, a Huguenot Immigrantt, who came into Virginia with his Huguenot .wife about 1603 to 170:), took up tha plan¬ tation in Powhatan county, Ya., then part of Goochland county, on the south side of the James river, called afterward and to this day tho Hughes Creek plantation; taking its name from a bold stream flow¬ ing into the James. The tradition con¬ cerning Jesse Hughes, the Immigrant, is that he escaped in a boat from Rochelle, ¿.ranee, at the age of fourteen, disguised and alone, and was fortunate enough to reach England. CAME TO YIRGINIA. After remaining some years in England and marrying, a Huguenot refugee, tho two came to Virginia and settled across the James River from Manakintown, where a large company of Huguenots had settled on lands granted them by the English crown. One of his sons married Sallie Tarlton, and had, among other children, a daughter, Martha Hughes, who married George Walton, tho un¬ do and educator o fthe Walton of North Carolinas that signed the Declaration of Independence. The family of Hughes in¬ termarried with another family of Hughes of Welsh Wood, who were among the colonizers of Powhatan county. Va. The original immigrant of this Welsh family was Stephen Hughes, who was born in Calmarvonshire, Wales (some say Gla¬ morganshire), near the river Taffe, east of Cardiff. Stophen Hughe's married Elizabeth Tarlton, who was born in 1GÍ16 and lived till 1TS3, dying at the age of eighty-ni ne years. No records aro extant showing the In¬ termarriages between tho Wersh family of Hughes possessing the Tarlton blood nnd name and the Huguenot family of Hughes Creek, but there were several of them in the iirst two generations of the offspring of the immigrants. Of the offspring of the first of these intermar¬ riages was Major David Hughes, who married Nancy Merriwcather and went to Kentucky, where they reared twenty- five children. Another descendant from an intermarriage is General Bela M. Hughes, of Denver, Col., and so arc his relations in the trans-Mississ'ppi, west. It will thus be seen that Judge Robert W. Hughes is a descendant ct" one of the oldest and most highly respected families of the noble old Commonwealth of Vir¬ ginia, and that talents of an unusual or¬ der have been possessed by the mem¬ bers of each generation. Judge Hughes was a great lover of the thoroughbred horse, and on his fine blue-grass farm near Abingdon indulged this passion to his hist illness. He was never gifted as an orator, but as an in¬ formed thinker and a trenchant and in¬ cisive writer he had few equals and prob¬ ably no superior in Virginia. EXEMPTION FROM TAXATION.

This is right lively trading for a town twenty miles from the railroad, but it is believed that in a ?-ery short time there will be a railroad through this country and near this place, and as this county has the finest undeveloped coal and tim¬ ber lands of any county in the State ana the prices are still very low it is attracting 'the attention jxjst now |of capitalists from all over the country. Dickenson county is the only county, it is claimed, south of Maryland that has no colored population. In 1S90 there were a few families of neg-^es in a remote end of the county, and this county was returned in thc census of 1S0O as having twenty-six colored inhabitants, but these colored people moved away about 1S02, and since that tmie there have been no colored people in ths county, and in tho 190O census this county is returned as having no colored population. BELIEVE IN FAIR ELECTIONS. The people being mostly the original sturdy mountain people, they are strong advocates of fair elections, regardless of politics, and "the Democrats condemned in the strongest terms General Walker for contesting Judge Rhea's election in thc two last races for Congress, and very few Republicans, if any, endorsed the contest, while many were outspoken in their condemnation of General Walker, now as Fulton, Democrat, is contesting the seat of Hiobltts, RepubLCan, in t.¿<a House of Delegates from the counties of Buchanan, Dickenson and \Visc. Both partis in this county, almost to a man. are condemning Fulton, as they cay they feel certain that Hibbitts was fainy elected, and should hold the seat. AFFAIRS AT WEST POiiNT.

Juago Robert W. Hughes died at hiscountry home, near Abingdon, at 1:15o'clock yesterday morning.Tho end of his long and useful life

.was not unexpected. lie had been infailing health for some years. Long be¬fore ho retired from tho bench ho rea¬lized that age was telling upon him,¡but, while ho was eligible under theFederal laws to retire, he held on ano*continued to discharge tho duties of hisoffice until about four years ago, whenhe asked to be retired, and was succeeded:by Judge Waddill.When the end came the Judge was

surrounded by his sons, Messrs. Robert;M. and (Floyd Hughes, prominent law¬yers of Norfolk, and by the family of theformer. Mr. Floyd Hughes' family weredetained in Norfolk on account of thesickness of a member.Tho Judge passed away as quietly as

one falling into a gentle sleep. The endwas. apparently, painless.The funeral will take place from St.

Thomas' Episcopal Church, Abingdon, to¬morrow, and the interment will be madein Abingdon Cemetery, in the squarewhich contains Governor John IB. Floyd'sremaî:»». It in expected that many promi-

nent people will attend.WELL KNOWN IN RICHMOND.

Judge Hughes spent much of his lifeIn Richmond. He made this city his',headyuaxtirs when on the bench, and be¬fore that time was here as an editor,¡or rather as a writer on the Examiner.¡Ho was born in Powhatan county. Va.,on Juno 0, ÌS2L and was, therefore, a lit¬tle ??-er «eighty years of age. He wasreared by the widow of General Carring-lon, who was the daughter of Francis S.li'ivston and Sally Campbell, the latterbeing tho daughter of the hero of King'sMountain. The Judge received his euuea-tion at Caldwell Institute, N. C, andtaught school in that Stato when quitea young man. He lilted himself for the¡practice of law, and practiced his «pro¬fession in Richmond from 1S4G to 1*555.¡He early took a lively interest in jour¬nalism, and from lisöö to ·1?£>7 was the ea'i-lor of tlie Richmond Examiner. FromMay, ISSI, to April, 1SG5, he was one of thebrilliant trio that edited that journal,his associates being John M. Daniel andPatrick Henry Aylett- Judge Hughesused to write what was called the ''ar¬gumentative'' editorials.Daniel died as the dark hours

of dissolution gathered over tliecause he had so brilliantly advocated.Aylett was killed in the Capitol disasterIn 1S70. Although Judge Hughes had beena violmit tecessionist, he, at the surren¬der and fall of the Confederacy, consideredit best that we anould make irienas otour late enemies, and he at once alignedhimself with the Republican party. Jn1SGÖ-6·' he edited the Richmond Republic.He soon, also, founded and with signalability conducted the Richmond Journal,which immediately took front rank as theJeacling Republican newspaper of theSouthern State?.

HE FOUGHT CAMERON.Colonel W. E. Cameron, who was later

Governor and now a member of the Con¬stitutional Convention, some monthslater assumed editorial control of the Pe¬tersburg Index, and the'editorial friction.between these two papres led to a duel,in Which Colonel Cameron received a

broken rib at the lirst ftre.Judpe Hughes challenged Colonel Cam¬

eron to fight, and the gage was accepted.An attempt was made to bring the dueloff at Chester. Va., but it was found im-0>ractical>lc, and so the two men, withtheir seconds and physicians, crossed the.border and fought in North Carolina.Judge Hughes was untouched, but thebullet from his revolver tore a fleshwound across the.chest of his adversary.When this wound was declared not dan¬gerous. Judge Hughes asked for anothershot, but the second's refused to allowthe matter to go any further.

RAN FOR GOVERNOR.In 1.ST3 Judge Hughes was the Republi¬

can canaidate for the Governorship cfVirginia against General Kemper. his suc¬

cessful Democratic opponent. On Jan¬uary. 1S74. he was by President Grantcommissioned L*. S. District Judge for theEastern District of Virginia, ind at enee«removed his residence to Nc-foik, hiingall the while his beautiful .-esic! mce ntier.Abingdon as a summer home.

annually bv thc American people, millions of dollars spent forquack nostrums that promise to cure all diseases. There are o\ er

«f.0,000 listed patent medicines on the American market to-daj·.not counting three times that quantity not listed. Think of this.over ???,??? patent medicines that pretend to cure everythingfrom corns to consumption. rRONAL Is not a patent medicine.It is tho simple product of mineral water obtained from same by

evaporation. Nothing is taken from it. nothing Is added to it. It is nature's pre¬scription, unalloyed and unadulterated*. It is non-toxic and harmless. No dose,however large, can injure. Note what tho people say of this great remedy:

KIDNEYS, SCIATICA.Rev. Wrn. H. Price, of the Hoiston Conference, speaking of Ironal, says:I suffered with my Kidneys and Sciatica. I used various remedies, but no per¬

manent relier. My digestion not being the best, Dyspepsia and Headache fre¬quently occurred. I began the use of Ironal for these troubles, and, to my sur¬

prise, soon saw that my Sciatica trouble was disappearing and my p*eneral healthimproving. Not satisfied that it was Ironal, G induced the Rev. G. W. Miles, whowas similarly affected, to try this remedy, and it soon relieved him. Six otherIritnds usedit for similar trouble, and all experienced' the same relief.

From Gilpin, Langdon & Co., Wholesale Druggists, Baltimore, Md. : We havebeen selling Ironal for a number of years, and find thc demand steadily increasing,and" that, too. entirely upon its own merits. We really think some steps should betaken to placo this natural remedy more prominentlv before the American people,and. indeed, before the whole world. It has superior merit, and thc advantage ofbfimr Nature's own combination, and is bound to commend itself to the people.We notice the largest demands come from places where It Is longest and bestknown, which proves that, if you had it generally advertised, you could not man¬

ufacture it fast enough to supply the demand·.

DYSPEPSIA, INDIGESTION, COLIC-Capt. G. W. Hill. Alton·, 111., Secretary and Treasurer of thc Eagle Packet Com¬

pany, St. Louis, Mo., writes:Some twenty-five vears ago I was a great sufferer from Dyspepsia and Indi¬

gestion. Ironal being recommended to me, I procured a bottle, and in a shorttime it effected a permanent cure. I have seen its beneficial results in manyother cases. We have used it in our family in coses of Colic, with best results. Ido not think any family should bo without Ironal in their homes, especially ifremote from a physician.

AS ? WRITER.Judge «Hughes was the author of biogra¬

phies of Gen. Jno. B. Floyd and Gen. Jos¬eph E. Johnston, publlsn;d in

' J.ee and

His Lieutenants," 1.SG7; of a volume en¬

titled, *'The Currency .Juîs-I :i," yy.'J; of

a volume entitled "Tho American Dol¬lar," 1S85; and of five volumes ot UriuaStates Circuit and District Court reports,entitled "Hughes' Reports," 1S79-S5.He married June 4, 1S50, in the '."o-.ern-

or's mansion, Richmond, Miss Eliza M..

Johnston, daughter of Hon. filiarles C.

Johnston, a member of Congress.Mrs. Hughes was also an adopted

daughter of Mrs. John G?. Floyd,her own father having been drowned v. bile

endeavoring to board a vessel at Alexan¬

dria, while on his way to Washington as

a member of Congress. He was a brotherof General Joseph E. Johnston.Mrs. Hughes died many years ago. The

only surviving children are Messrs. Rob¬ert M. and Floyd ¡Hughes.

HIS LITF'E IN RICHMOND.While on tho bench Judge Hughes,

when In Richmond, made his headquar¬ters, as a rule, in the Federal building,where he had a bed-chamber. There he

spent much time in reading and writing.He loved the company of men of literarytastes, and many used to go there to

spend evenings in his society, and oftenhe would be a guest in the homes ofthese friends. His faithful attendant,Conrad, stills holds a position in thecustom-house, having been retained byJudge Waddill at tho request of his pre¬decessor.Tho Judge was a ven·- tender-hearted^

man. and was very merciful to prisoners"convicted in his court, generally imposingvery light sentences. He was In everyrense a splendid man.a man. large ofheart as well as of brain. He alwaysmanaged to retain the highest respect ofhis political opponents. While a ¡Repub-lican, ho was not an extreme partisan,but always very liberal in his views.Judge Waddill said last night he re¬

garded Judge Hughes as one of the ablestand one of the best men who ever sat

upon the bench. He was deeply painedto hear of his old friend's death. JudgeWaddill will attend the funeral if his

health will permit of his taking the trip.He is suffering from a sore foot that is

giving him considerable trouble. Dr. C.W. P. Brock will also probably attend thefuneral.

HIS ANCESTRY.Judge Hughes camo of very distin¬

guished ancestry. He was the second' son

of Jesse Hugt.es and Elizabeth wood-

son (nee) Norton. Jesse Hughes, of Mud¬dy Creek plantation, Powhatan county,Va., was born September 22, ViSS, wasmarried in 1S12 and died in March, 1S22.He was a lawyer and a captain in the

War of 1S12. His wife, Elizabeth "v.ood-son Hughes, was born September "5, 171)3,and died duly 12, 1822. One of the cnild-ren of these two, who lived to marryand have children, was John MortonHughes, who was born February 20, 1313,anu who died in Mobile, Ala., where he

lived, September 20, 1£C5, leaving one sur¬

viving child, William Morton Hughes, a

druggist in Baltimore, Mi. Another cnildwas Klizaboth Jessie Hughes, who mar¬ried Samuel G. Hughes, of Orange coun¬

ty, N. C; another, and younger child, wasRobert W. Hughes, the lirth Robert¡Hughes, whoso name heads this sketch.Elizabeth Woodson (Morton) Hughes,

wife of the above Jesse Hughes, was thedaughter of Ilezekiah Morton, of PrinceEdward county, Va., and of his wife,Phoebe Moseiey. Captain Kiah Mor¬ton served throughout thc whole j.erlod ofthe Revolutionary war; in the latter partof it as captain in the campaigns ofGenerals Gates antl Greene, in the Car¬olinas. He was descended in this wisefrom Dr. John Woodson, of Dorsetshire,England, who came over as surgeon ofSir John Harvey's command, and set¬tled in Virginia in 1SG5, and whose grand¬son. Richard, married Anna Smith.Richard and Anna Woodson had, beside

six other children, a daughter, Elizabeth,who married Thomas Morton. This pairhad. among other children, a son, JohnMorion, who was in middle life at thebeginning of the Revolutionary war, andalso formed a company of infantry, em¬

bracing four of his own grown and near¬

ly grown sons.His wife, was Miss Anderson, daughter

of a successful English merchant, who

lived in Prince Edward county, Va. Oneof the sons, thus enlisted in the patriotcause, was the above-named CaptainHezekiah -Morton, father oi ElizabethWooduon (Morton) Hughes.

HIS GRANDPARENTS.The grandparents of Robert W. Hughes

were David Hughes, of Muddy Creek plan¬tation. Powhatan county, Va., and Judith

Daniel, his wife, daughter of ChesleyDaniel and Judith (Christian) DanielDavid Hughes was a captain i- the Revo¬lutionary war. His eu.est son, Kobert(fourth of tue name), died unmarried.His second son was Jesse, above men¬

tioned. His third chlid was Anne Hart-well, who died unmarried.The great-grandfather of Judge R. W.

Hughes was the second Robt. Hughes, ofHughes Creek, Powhatan county, Va.,who married Anne Hartwell, of NewKent county. Va. They had three sons,Jesse, Robert and David; and one daugh¬ter. Fanny. Jesso Hughes was a pioneerand explorer of the mountains in whatis now (1SS2) West Virginia. He was a

hunter and Indian fighter, and was never

married. {See Do Hass' Indian Wars).Hughes river, a branch of tho LittleKanawha, was named after him. Hisbrother, tho third Robert Hughs, inherit¬ed the Hughes Creek plantation, whichwas the original seat of the family, bythe law of primogeniture. This RobertHughes had born to him daughters only.ono of whom had surviving descendants.This one married Francis Goode, and thusthe. family seat passed to the name ofGoode." Their daughter, Fanny, marriedRev. John Williams, and went to NorthCarolina, where they left a numerousoffspring.The great-great-grandfather of Judge

R. W. Hughes was Robert Hughes, Hiefirst ono of that name, of Hughes Creek,Powhatan county. Va.

OF 'HUGUENOT DESCENT.He married and left sons and daughters,

but no list of them and of their mar-

liages is now extant, except as to RobertHughes, tho second of the name, abovementioned. The great-great-great-grand-father of the Judge was Da\-id Hughes, ofHughes Creek, Powhatan county, Va.Records exist only of the facts respect¬

ing Robert Hughes (first) and of thefamily of his descendant, Robert Hughes(second).Jesse Hughes, a Huguenot Immigrantt,

who came into Virginia with his Huguenot.wife about 1603 to 170:), took up tha plan¬tation in Powhatan county, Ya., then partof Goochland county, on the south side ofthe James river, called afterward and tothis day tho Hughes Creek plantation;taking its name from a bold stream flow¬ing into the James. The tradition con¬

cerning Jesse Hughes, the Immigrant, isthat he escaped in a boat from Rochelle,¿.ranee, at the age of fourteen, disguisedand alone, and was fortunate enough toreach England.

CAME TO YIRGINIA.After remaining some years in England

and marrying, a Huguenot refugee, thotwo came to Virginia and settled acrossthe James River from Manakintown,where a large company of Huguenots hadsettled on lands granted them by theEnglish crown. One of his sons marriedSallie Tarlton, and had, among otherchildren, a daughter, Martha Hughes,who married George Walton, tho un¬do and educator o fthe Walton of NorthCarolinas that signed the Declaration ofIndependence. The family of Hughes in¬termarried with another family of Hughesof Welsh Wood, who were among thecolonizers of Powhatan county. Va. Theoriginal immigrant of this Welsh familywas Stephen Hughes, who was born inCalmarvonshire, Wales (some say Gla¬morganshire), near the river Taffe, eastof Cardiff. Stophen Hughe's marriedElizabeth Tarlton, who was born in 1GÍ16and lived till 1TS3, dying at the age ofeighty-ni ne years.No records aro extant showing the In¬

termarriages between tho Wersh familyof Hughes possessing the Tarlton bloodnnd name and the Huguenot family ofHughes Creek, but there were several ofthem in the iirst two generations of theoffspring of the immigrants. Of theoffspring of the first of these intermar¬riages was Major David Hughes, whomarried Nancy Merriwcather and wentto Kentucky, where they reared twenty-five children. Another descendant froman intermarriage is General Bela M.Hughes, of Denver, Col., and so arc hisrelations in the trans-Mississ'ppi, west. Itwill thus be seen that Judge Robert W.Hughes is a descendant ct" one of theoldest and most highly respected familiesof the noble old Commonwealth of Vir¬ginia, and that talents of an unusual or¬der have been possessed by the mem¬bers of each generation.Judge Hughes was a great lover of the

thoroughbred horse, and on his fineblue-grass farm near Abingdon indulgedthis passion to his hist illness. He was

never gifted as an orator, but as an in¬formed thinker and a trenchant and in¬cisive writer he had few equals and prob¬ably no superior in Virginia.
