Of the Board of Directors of February
10. 1896, We're offered by defendants,
showing that 100000 had been received
by the association, $4,000 from the D.
o. Mills Bank and SAC, 900 from the
Farmers and Mechanics Bank.
D. r. Jones was the next witness. He
said he was a director Of the Union
Building and Loan Association. He
knew Alsip very we'll and had been in
the habit OF attending meetings of the
association
'Alsip acted as Secretary of the asso-
eiation," said witness, and as such at
tended to the correspondence and look
ed after the business of the corporation.
He made the loans and borrowed money
for the association, also pledged the
securities. Alsip was present at a
meeting of the stockholders in Decem-
ber, 1895, and at this meeting he made
an annual report. At the same meeting
the question of paying the sixth series
was discussed in detail, and it was de-
cided to pay this in February. AT the
directors meeting held in February,
1886, there was a discussion regarding
the payment of the sixth series, and
during this the propriety of borrowing
money was discussed. We also discuss
ed the question of getting securities
such as the banks would accept, and
We learned that the banks would loan
the money on proper securities, and
that the securities of the corporation
We're sufficient. There was never any
objection or protest by the directors
against pledging our securities TO the
Mills bank, not until 1897, at least, The
holders Of the sixth series of stock did
not participate in the meeting of De-
cember 1885,
On cross-eXamination Jones said he
had never examined the minutes Of the
meeting of February, 1896, to see
whether they were correct. He did not
remember at what meeting the Secre-
tary made his report concerning the
loan. He had not personally investi-
gated the condition of the loans, neither
had he carefully examined the annual
report of the Secretary. He did not
investigate the value of the property
reported by the Secretary

Out on the water in the moonlight. A
more beautiful or romantic situation fer
young man to tell the story of his love and
ask the young woman of his choice TO share
his life cannot be imagined.
The courtship of young couple may be
ever so romantic and their married life be
very unhappy There are common sense
considerations outside of love that have
world TO do with the making of married
happiness. One of the most important of
these considerations is the good health of
both parties to the sacred tie. The young
man who is in the incipient stages of con-
sumption commits a crime if he narries
before he is restored to health He con-
dernns his wife to the life of nurse and
his children to early death, or lives OF sick
ness and suffering. DR.. Pierce's Golden
