ELIJAH WEEsE was arrested in
Grant county last week charged with
the murder of a man named Alt in
1861. There is little doubt of his
guilt. The accused is rs years OF

married "woman" who has reached
the mature age of II years. The
law ought to punish parents who
would permit such child to assume
the duties and responsibilities o

fenced enough at 90 to become wives
much less at IL.
