nance. which involves as principals we'll
known and highly respected citizens of

Everybody in this and adjoining cOun-
ties knows or has heard Of Uncle John
ME" Marshall, a hermit, who for forty
years prior to May. 1890. lived alone in
an old log house on his farm, just three
miles east Of this city. Old settlers in
the vicinity, however, remember him as
Jonathan Marshall. who came to this
county in 1S47, from Virginia, with his
father. At that time he was a handsome.
well-educted young man, about twenty
years of age, and engaged in school
teaching in this city for several years.
While plying that vocation ne fell in
love with one Of his students. Miss Jennie
Bates, then the fifteen-year-old daughter
Of Jacob Bates but at present the -esu-
mable wife of Addison @. Myers, a prom
inent attorney Of WhltestOwns this county,
and after a short cOurtship they became
betrothed. Her parents, however. did
not look favOrably upon their prospective
son-in-law, and, listening TO their entre1t-
les. Marshall was discarded, and in 1852
she was married to her present husband.
After her marriage Marshall purchased
small farm three miles from town and
there, in the midst Of a dense thicket,
he built himself a log hut, in which he
lived a secluded life. and from the time
Of its completion until his death he did
not miss sleeping under its slab roof for
a single night He was a hard worker
and accumulated quite fortune. He in
vested all his wealth in real estate and

Morrison, died. leaving a son seventeen
years Of age. Jonathan Morrison is a
bright young fellow and was named after
mis- uncle, with whom he was quite a
fsvorite. After his sisters death Uncle
.Ilhnnie" surprised everyone by inviting
young man to come and share his
me. which invitation was gladly ac-
czpted.
The false sweetheart of MarshalTs
youth, after her marriage to Myers, be-
came the mother Of six children five
boys and one girl, Gertrude, now a pref
ty little woman nineteen years of age.
She is quite accomplished and the ac-
knOwledged belle Of the vicinity.
"Uncle Johnnie died Aug. %, leaving
a viii in which, after mentioning the
above facts as his reasons, he be-
queathed his entire fortune to his
nephew and Miss Myers Jointly, provid-
ing they shall marry within two years
from the time of his demise. In the
event Of their failure TO marry within
the stipulated time young Morrison is
70 receive property equal to $1,000 and
the remainder Of the estate is to be d-
vided between his other heirs at law.
As soon as Jonathan learned the M ture
Of the old mans will Miss Myers was
sent for, and for the first time she met
Morrison in his attorneys Office in this
city, when the contents of the will were
made known to her. She quickly re-
covered from her surprise and seemed
