The end OF the now famous Kee-
secker-Drenner "hog' case, is not yet.
Mr.. Keesecker, one OF the most careful
and efficient constables in the county,
had placed in his hands for collection
a number of claims for failure to work
on the road, one among them being
against Drenner, who refused to pay
the same. Keesecker levied on a
fine hog and sold the same, and
Drenner sued him for damages.
Justice Harrison gave him judg-
ment for $4,000. The case was carried
to the Circuit Court on appeal and the
Judgment set aside, and Judgment
for cost given for Keesecker. Drenner
sued again, and last week obtained a
Judgment for S22.oo. From this judg-
ment Keesecker has again appealed to
the Circuit Court. The case is a novel
and important one. Messrs. S. w.
Walker and ]. Nelson Wisner repre-
sent Drenner and Messrs. d. c. West
enhaver and L. S. G. Pitzer appear
