1t is related that a young man escorted
two young ladies to a gathering not
many nights ago and that some other
young man got the start of him and
accompanied one of the girls home.
This made the first young man to be
wrathy, and he did lay in wait, so the
story goes, for that second young man
and had his mind made up to punish
him for his impudence with a venge-
ance. What the outcome was we do
not know. but as a caution against fu-
ture happenings of a similar nature we
would suggest that this is leap year and
thac it would be safer for ones physical
appearance to allowing the girls to do
the accompanying.
AS soon as it became known that the
grand jury had failed to indict DR.. Brod-
da and Augusta Kunz, the county
commissioners dispatched them to their
former home in Golden Gate They
took their child with them and at the
home of.Mr. Meyer in Milford they
stopped off to warm up. Mr. Meyer in
speaking of the affair says that at that
time the arms and legs of the little child
were frozen stiff and the mother offered
it frozen milk to drink. The old doctor
during all this time acted like a crazy
man and in one of his freDzied moments
stabbed at the child with q knife Upon
leaving, they insisted upon taking the
child with them and by the time they
| had reached Golden Gate the little one
was not expected to live. From all this
it is apparent that the strange couple
are either demented or else are among
the worst types of human brutes, and
we fail to see why the grand jury did
DOT indict them.
