A kind friend under the date Of Dec. 9th
furnishes US the following interesting inform
alton which recently oceured ct Kings Val
ley. He says that the Good Tenaplars gaze
a sociable at their hall Christmas evening.
The neighbors came out at the appointed
hour and ''flled the house to overfowing.
The best of all was they did not forget to
prepare and bring with them chickens and
all other necessary good things in abun-
dance. One of the best suppers that ever
was permitted to partake of was had upon
the occasion. The exercises consisted of
speaking, select readings, singing and gen.
eral feast of good things such as chicken,
wit, song, temperance sentiments and i must
add that the sickening fumes:of whiskey was
not present. Speeches were made by Rev.
T. M. Rams dell, James Plunkett, G. B.
Cros no, VIM. Burgett, M. ]. Connor, w. T.
Price, L. G. Price and several others. Sc
1ect reading by Mrs. Henry Chambers. It
was universally conceded by all present that
it was the most pleasant and enjoyable time
ever had in the history of the valley. "But
after all the sweet don't often come without
a portion of bitter" "When one thinks
that nothing but heavenly enjoyment is
around it often, happens that Saten is al
SO near at hand" So it was upon this
eventful night when all persons at the socia-
BILE were enjoying themselves ss happily as
heart could wish Satans imps and drunken
hoodlnms were prowling around through the
valley that night. They came along by this
sociable and stopped out side long enough to
cut the halter strap on Tip Maxfeld's horse
and tarn Richard Woods team loose. Mr.
W. L. Prices carriage team was cut loose
causing them to run away resulting in
breaking the leg of one of his horses, which
was valuable animal, and smashing his
hack into kindling wood. The parties who
committed such outrage should be looked
after and receive the proper punishment TO
their outlawry
