the occasion Of much comment. A
few nights after their marriage the
young people in the vicinity gathered
in front of the Kendrick residence and
proceeded to serenade the couple.
The bride received the ovation with
out any manifestation of anger, but
when the seredaners appeared a few
nights later, she entered a complaint
against one of them, who happened 10
be her grandson. He was brought into
court when it appeared that his offense
consisted in crying: Bring out grand
pa and let's see him." He was fined 8

trade back. and Mrs. Maker threatened
to have him arrested, as the horse was

horseman threatened 10 have Maker ar

not belong TO him At last an amicable
adjustment was reached, the woman
