News From Fillmore,

Fillmore, Oct. I, 1S97.-The case of
Peter Greenhalgh against Almond
Robson is being stubbornly fought
with Attorneys Tatlock and Mcbride
for plaintiff and Attorneys Greenwood
and S. A. King for defendant II APP
pears that Mr.. Robson owned land in
Meadow and believed that the fence
upon it was his also, and when Peter
Greenhalgh removed it he, Robson,
had him arrested He was in custody of
the sheriff at his house one night.
Next day. finding the fence was not
his, Robison's,but the property of Mrs.
Ernst of Meadow, who had employed
Greenhalgh to remove it, Mr.. Robl-
son withdrew his prosecution. For this
Imprisonment Mr.. Greenhalgh now
asks $4,000. 1t looks as though the
case will consume the time of the
court tomorrow.
The lawyers here are somewhat
amused to note in one of your morn
ing contemporaries the information
that "Marigetto Palmer VIZ Pauline
Mia Jorgenson; plaintiff was given a
decree of divorce on the ground of de-
sertion. THESE are supposed to ne both
ladies. Mrs. Mary Elite Palmer did
obtain divorce from William Palmer,
and Soren Jorgenson also obtained a
divorce from Pauline Nielsen Jorgeu-
son, upon the grounds of desertion.
There is something wrong with the
mails,fo your paper frequently comes
in patches. Some papers never appear
at the postofllce at all. L am inclined
to think that the trouble is in transit,
and not at your office. 1t would APP
pear that there is an incompetent or
lazy clerk somewhere.
