MASON CITY, w. VA, January Ell
-Four young women, with hearts full Of
indignation, took Arthur Meller out Of
his bed at the farm OF Henry A. Jones,
near Vineland, a few miles from here,
last night, and whipped hi IN severely
with riding whip.
Near the Jones farm lives Mrs Susan
Calment, with her daughter Annie. An
ME is an attractive girl and last summer
Meler gave her considerable attention.
y few weeks ago they became engaged
TO be married, and announced it 10 Mrs.
Calmeht. Last Sunday Meller took his
betTothed to Middleport, where be made
insulting proposals 10 her She return
ed home and told her mother, who In
turn denounced Meller 10 his face.
Yesterday 10 became known that Mel
Ter, in his pique, was circulating very
nasty reports about the girl. Miss Cal
ment had no one TO defend her charRc-
ter, but three Of her girl friends, all
strong buxom young women, volunteered
TO give Melier what he deserved, They
went to Jones's, where Meller stayed,
and by throwing pebbles against the
windows, attracted his attention. See
ing the girls, he drew on his trousers
and came 10 the door. They seized him
and dragging him TO n fence corner,
tied him, and dashed his back Till be
screamed for mercy. But the girls were
angry and did not let up till Farmer
Jones came 20 the rescue. Meller had
on only his night shirt and trousers,
and the cold and the raw hide made Rn
impression upon him which will be hard
to eradicate.
