PUBLIC MEETING.

A large aud enthusiastic meeting Of the
citizens of the county was held at Lee Hail.
on Saturday, 2ist inst. JOHN G. SHIRLEY,
Esq, was called to the Chair aud CleOu
Moore appointed Secretary. Andrew Hun
ter, Esq, stated that the object of the meet.
ing was to take any steps deemed necessary
to have the county scat removed to Charles,
town. -
ThOs. G. Green, Eco, stated to the meet.
ing that bill would be presented to the
Legislature, this winter, asking that Eve gen.
tlemen Cnamed in the billy be authorized to
spend sum, not exceeding $4,000, In the
erection Of Court House, and that the eoun.
ty-seat be removed from ShepherdstOWn to
ChnrlestoWn at an early day.
Mr.. Hunter, 10 his usual forciblc style, ex>
planned why the Court House had been re,
moved to Shepherdstown. After stating the
fact that in 1901 when this county was de-
tached from Berkeley, CharIestOwn was By
common consent the established county seat,
as being the centre of the county, the coun-
ty-seat was moved to ShepherdstOwn as war
measure, in February, 1865, because being i'll
a part of the county protected by Federal
soldiers ut that time stationed on the b. Il y.
Railroad. by some means al act was passed
in 1866 fixing it permanently at that place.
The time had now come when the people de-
manded that it should be located at place
Convenient aud ut this place, rendered SO by
its position on the railroad aud the number
of pixies entering tho town, and about the
centre Of the county. The people are now
paying double price for attending the courts
aud in one year it would almost be sufficient
to erect new Court House.
The following resolutions we're then offer
