These things will still be thus.

Brown Justice of the peace, today. The
case was styled State VS. Pink Lawing
and grow out of Lawing's obtaining Ii
cense Tor his marriage to a Miss VIII
k.nson before the Register of Deeds here
lie represented that his intended, girl
fifteen years of age, was tweHlty- three
and subscribed and was SWORN to the
oath printed ON the marriage license
blanks. The warrant for hls arrest
was sworn out by Mr.. f. NJ waikiki
son, the father of the girl, on the charge
of perjury.
Both of the contracting parties are
from Lincoln county. The state was
represented by Mr.. Charles Childs, an at
torney from Uincolnton, and Mr.. IL. j..
WitherspOon, of this place, appeared for
Lawing. The Indictment was amended
by adding the charge of obtaining IL
cense by false prctense. The case was
then tried on The validity of the oath,
no Bible having been used, and on the
wording of the statute These point 5
made the case interesting for the at
tOrneys, while the loss of the girl, the
father of the girl having prevented the
marriage, the loss of the license fee and
the indictment interested the specta-
tors After the conclusion of the trial
Iawing was bound over to court.
THE validity of the oath should he

the different registers of this county to
qualify the applicants for license by
having them subscribe to the printed
oath and being sworn to lit. using the
right hand instead of the Bible.

trations showing buildings and industrial
plants, with the numerous pictures, and
geographic sketches of prominent citi-
zens form a very attractive and in
teresting feature of this publication,
which i'm this arid i'm other respects is
superior to anything of the kind ever
issued in this State. 1t required TO
little enterprise and courage to under
take such a work, and with this stupen-
dols amount of labor to compile and
present it in such Ineligible form. The
success and cleverness with which this
has been done reflects no little credit on
the publishers and ccmpilers, but also
ON the State, of whose progress 1T IS a
saslendid exhibit.
