in this village by trustee and brought the
handsome sum of twenty eight hundred and
twenty dollars and was bought by man

it was sold with the understanding that the
timber WAS not to be cut of the premises uu-
Ill after the last payment of the purchase
money was made. The Trustee acceded to
his demand and the place was sold with that

A Giddy Girl Recovered.

Yesterday morning, while the mayors
and asked to see the city marshal, and the
officer to whom he addressed himself called
Marshal Arnold, whom he told that he was
searching for his daughter, girl OF some
sixteen summers, who had, without the
permission of either him or his wife, left
nome and that he had traced her to this
city. He stated to the officer that he was
from Mckinney, but that functionary
failed to note his name, which he was 50
negligent as not to give The old man was
very much exercised about his child, and
wiped the tearso Of SORROW that coursed down
his withered cheek of with coat-sleeve with
o quick motion rs though he would have
his grief, if possible, concealed
In his brief conversation with the officer
he told him that his daughter had of late
expressed q desire to procure employment
in millinery establishment, and that he
and her mother had opposed it. Wednes-
day, however, he learned that she was seen
10 board the south-bound passenger train
on the Texas Central and he learned sub
sequently that Dallas was her destination
lie was uneasy for the safety Of his daugh
ter, and with fathers lCve, had followed
her, fearing that her situation might not be
satisfactory with his ideas Of what was
proper and safe. He left before court ad
iourned, and the marshal, who was busy
with other matters at the time,
did not get to sec him. However, police
officer informed a reporter of the HERALD
that he saw the old man with young girl
who answered the description of the run
away, at the Union depot, and that they
took the Texas Central north bound train.
He was talking to her in kind, but earnest
tone OF voice and she was weeping. When
the train arrived they got aboard and sped
on their way home.
