NOTES
The charivari was decided sue
cess. Nothing to campare with 1t
was ever before. heard in Louisa.
Everything which, would make q
noise was used, including squealing
pigs, circular saws and "horse fid-
de-, the latter being a piece Of
mechanism built especially for the
occasion by some married men who
have been victims ofdiscordant GER
enades under Milt's supervision.
1t is estimated by some one, that the
"horse tiddlen was heard as far as
the Mouth of Hood, at least. W..
I. Evans paid up,old scores against
the groom by manipulating the
cussed thing.
Messrs. Ed. s. Hughee and John
NJ, Rice, Jr,, were ushers and per-
formed their duties gracefully.
