CASE WAS DISCHARGED.
Health officer Kennedy, of Dickson
City Borough, Withdraws Charges
Against Mr.. and Mrs. Roberts.

The hearing in the case of Mr.. and
Mrs. Roberts, Of Dickson City, the
young couple charged by Health Officer
Kennedy, of the borough, with VIOLA
tion of the health laws, which was to
be held yesterday in Alderman w. s.
Millar's office, did not take place and
never will, as the charges have been
withdrawn and the case amicably set
tied.
AS will be remembered, DR.. Kennedy
charged Mr.. and Mrs. Roberts with
having public funeral at the time Of
the death of their young children, and
of exposing the bodies at the grave,
although they had died of contagious
diseas ses.
Alderman Millar heard the case Mon
day. Feb. IL, the evidence being pre-
sented in full. Undertaken D. D. Jones,
who had charge of the funeral, and
several other witnesses testifying.
Very little evidence was produced
which tended to establish the Roberts
guilt. and, above all, it was not satis-
factorily proved that it was a contag-
ious disease which resulted in the chill.
dren's death.
A second hearing was arranged for
the following Friday, but was post
poned until yesterday when the case
was settled between the parties and,
Alderman Millar being notified that
an agreement had been reached and
DR.. Kennedy had withdrawn his
charges, discharged the case.

South Mountain, when he learned that
a Union army corps under General
Hooker was on its way north and had

Gettysburg.
This caused Lee to abandon his
march on Harrisburg and by series
of quick manouevres he succeeded in
bringing the various divisions of his
army by series of forced marches
across the mountain and from the
north to the positions on all the roads
leading into Gettysburg from the lat
ter direction.
The Union troops were In the mean
