The box of eighteen who marie

The boy of eighteen who marries against
his fathers wish is generally fool, but the
father who beats his son to jelly on that
account may be safely set down as a fiend.
Wesley Summers, of Pickens County, s, c.,
colored boy little less than eighteen
years old, defied his father opposition last
week by marrying. The father spent all
the next day hunting for his son, and, find
ing him in the evening, took him home,
where the youthful bridegroom was beaten
until he was almost senseless. The unhap-
py boy then employed the little strength he
had left in committing suicide.
