decided TO refuse to pay the assessment
OF Gwinnetts part In the bridge built
across the ChattahOochee river by For
syth county. The bridge was built at a
cost of about $1,000. Forsyth has paid
$1,000 and wants Gwiunett to pay tht. bal
auce, claiming that each county must con-
tribute according to the value OF its prop
erty. The commissioners claim that G win
nett never gave her consent to the con-
structlon OF this bridge or agreed TO pay
pro rata for its constructions that they
were not consulted to the location or
necessity for the bridge. and that the
county is not legally bound to contribute.
A divorce suit was filed at Atlanta Sat
urday afternoon by Mrs. Mcdowell
against her husband. Thomas Mcdowell,
who is 20 years old. They were married
last November and Immediately after the
wedding, she says he began to be cruel
to her. He failed to provide for her
and she was compelled 10 go without food
and clothing. ON one occasion, she says
that he seized a piece of soap and rubbed
At -ntO her face and mouth. He at last
ordered her TO leave the house, and when
she refused. she says he ordered a dray
and had her effects hauled away. Nc
DoWeu owns real estate valued at more
than $4,000 He has ten acres near
Grant park, and owns several lots on the
Boulevard. His present wife is his sec
ond.
Suburban real estate, involving a snug
fortune, is in litigation at Atlanta be-
tween c. W. Hunnlcutt and the heirs of
pioneer citizens of Atlanta. The property,
which Is estimated to be worth $3.50, 900, Is
situated near the new water works pump
ing station. During the life of Jeremiah
Nettles the land was practically worth
less, as Atlanta was then nothing more
than a camping ground. Just before the
death Of jeremiah Nettles he gave a deed
to one-half of the estate to his wife, who
was to hold life estate. with the re-
mainder to her children. who in turn
were to bequeath their interests to their
children. making the deed of gift hold for
three generations. During the war an or
der was signed by Judge Bull, ordering the
property sold under the order of the SUI
perior court and as there was no resist
ance made TO the order the property was
sold, being divided into many portions, and
being purchased by a score or more of
different persons Among the purchasers
was G. w. Hunnicutt who now owns
about lis acres. The heirs of jeremiah
Nettes claim the entire property under
the deed made by him. This deed is said
to be valid and will bind the owner and
secure the titles. Mr.. Hunnicutt claims
that in addition to the deed from the court,
which was ordered by Judge Bull, he has
a judgment. He says suit was brought
against him, which was compromised,
making him the owner of the land.
