Thomas Capern, who received painful
injuries from a fall from cherry tree a
few weeks ago, is slowly recovering and
will soon be able to attend to his duties as
sexton of the Baptist Church.
On Wednesday Justice Charles Her.
mann heard the evidence in the suit of
Mrs. Lucy Thornton, of Hainesport,
against Robert M. Jackson to recover a
balance of $l35 due for rent OF house at
Hainesport. There was a dispute as to
the amount of the annual rental, and,
after hearing the evidence, the Squire
rendered verdict in favor of the plain
tiff for $35. Louis Morris was counsel for
the plaintiff; Eckard P. Budd. of Mount
Holly, for defence.
Since the death of Woodmansee Girls
pin, the miser, who was declared to be of
unsound mind by special jury, it has
been learned that he left will in which,
after declaring himself to be 'of sound
and disposing mind" he bequeathes the
income of all his estate to his wife. Rebec-
ca, during her lifetime, but directs that
the estate shall not be distributed until
all the grandchildren are of age. Charles
M. Brown is named as executor, and it
was witnessed by William H. Brown and
Esquire Albert s. Petit. Mr.. Brown,
however, renowned his right to act as
executor in favor of the Burlington Coun :
ty Safe Deposit and Trust Co. The will,
however, was not satisfactory to the lega-
tees who are also the heirs-at-law, and
they employed Eckard P. Budd to file a
caveat against the probate of the will. on
the ground that the testator was of IN
sound mind. Crispin's widow and his
two children, Eliza J. Scott and John W.
Crispin, are now living in Fresno county,
California. The estate is valued at $1,000.

Chesterield's voters, asking that an cleo.
ton be held for the purpose of determin-
ing whether the fee for selling liquors in

notices, and offered one witness, Thomas
L. Chapman, TO testify to certain points.

ton and Judge Gaskill granted an order
