An Old Debt.

Bank checks are very common
things, but Maddin VOss, the depot
lunch man, "cashed" one several
days ago which carried with it an
interesting story. The check was
given to a prominent Maury County
horseman and farmer bv a gentle
man in Williamson county, in
payment for stud fees in the
year 1860. The Maury County man
had forgotten all about the debt, and
when his debtor met him in Frank
lin the other day and offered to give
him $40, the amount of the debt, he
was much surprised. Had Mr..
Creditor been disposed to charge
interest, at the rate of 6 per cent, the
amount would have been about $50,
but, being an honest man, he took
only SO and called the debt square.
