KILLED HER BY DEGREES.
Forced to Marry, Tatmnn M'streats His
Mlfe-Snoiling Crops.

HARRlNGToN. Aug. Court opened
here Monday afternoon before Squire
Clark The first case called was suit
of Goslin against Camper, n butcher.
Camper demanded referee trial and IL
was granted After examining the wit
nesses the referees rendered decision Of
judgment Of cents in favor OF Camper.
The Tatmau case was the next on the
docket, but it was indefinitely postponed.
Young Tatman, whom the people OF this
vicinity have almost learned to hate
because OF his mean treatment 20 the
woman whom he seduced and WAS com
PEELED to marry, has again turned loose,
and the Indignation of the people is so
worked np that it would be no surprise
to hear at any time of his receiving q
complete cowhiding from the hands
Of masked party. On Saturday
last she was compelled TO leave
the house and walk to town. distance Of
over four miles TO seek shelter. On Sun
day Squire Clark drove out with her as
she had made up her mind to pack her
trunk and leave for the city. On Monday
morning her mother from Philadelphia
came down and in company with Squire
Clark, was driven out TO Tatman's by Mr.
Dickerson, liveryman. They found her
too unwell to be moved as she is about to
be confined and they had TO come back
without her They were forwarned from
coming on the premises again. The gen
eral opinion here is that Tatmanis killing
the woman by degrees. On the Friday
night before she walked to Harrington he
kicked her out of bed. Hanging is none
too good for brute that would treat a
woman in any such way.
The camp at Concord, Md, was well
attended on Sunday, but not so much so
as 1t usually is. The camps at Wye and
Camden of course are drawing a great

Hardesty preached in the morning and
Rev. j. w. Foreman in the afternoon.
The sermon in the morning was the
topic of conversation during the day.
Mr.. Hardesty is a self made man having
had no advantages of collegiate
education like others Of his bretheren,
The sermon was very elaborate, logiea
and deeply interesting from beginning ts
end and was listened to by a large anC
appreciative audience.
There was nothing to mar the pleasure
OF the day. The air was cool and pleas
ant no dust nor any mud, and every
body seemingly was glad he was there
