turn it. Subsequently, Hagen and
the Indian met at the depot, and

$1.50. The Indian handed him
the amount asked, and lie pocketed
chat also.

CITIZENS
The above note Of warming was
recently received by Thos. MelIor,
citizen Of Milton, but who is now
confined in the county Jail, where
he was taken in default Of 5000
bail to appear before the circuit
court on charge Of assault
with dangerous weapon. Mellor
is of the opinion that P. b. Nc.
Alexander, Of Milton, had some
thing to do with the above note.
The other day the men met and
had words, with the result that
Mellor drew a gun. The bottom Of
the trouble seems to be family jars
over religious and other matters in
the Mcllor family.
