Battle <strong>Bryan</strong>, as he was baptized, but changed his name, because the children call him a<br />
battling stick, to Bartlett, was the son of Lewis <strong>Bryan</strong> and Elizabeth White, of Iredell<br />
County. Lewis was the first merchant in Jefferson, about 1800, but he had a clerk<br />
whose name was Merchison, and on one occasion, when Lewis was absent, purchasing<br />
goods, this clerk sold all the goods he could convert into money at a small price,<br />
collected all the debts he could at a large discount, and disappeared. He returned to<br />
Iredell with his wife, and was killed there by a tree, which fell on him at a "chopping<br />
frolic." Lewis was the son of John <strong>Bryan</strong>, who was at home on a furlough when the<br />
notorious Col. David Fanning, of the Revolutionary period, killed him in cold blood."<br />
