STRANGE STORY.
Though Man and Wife in Law, the Couple
Lived Apart For Thirty Years.


Knoxville, Tenn, Feb. 24.-Mrs.
Lucinda Scott died last Sunday morn
ing at the age of S5 and was buried at
Ebenezer Monday, a large crowd of
friends and relatives attending the OBJ
sequies.
She was born on the same farm on
which she died, and was the daughter
of Thomas Maxwell, pioneer settler.
For sixty years and more, or since she
married Alexander Scott, her home
has been an old-fashioned two story,
weather-boarded log house on the
loves Gerry road, one mile east of
Little Sinking Creek.
For thirty years Mr.. and Mrs. Scott
lived happily together and eight chill
dren were born to them. Then dissen-
sions arose and they found that it was
impossible for them to live In peace.
So they mutually agreed to divide all
OF their property equally and to sepa-
rate. They owned two farms, the one
where Mrs. Scott lived and another ly-
ing south of the loves Ferry road and
mile to the eastward.
They agreed on a committee of three
good citizens to divide the property.
The committee met at the house on
certain day and proceeded TO discharge
their duties to the entire satisfaction of
all concerned. The children were first
divided. First choice was secured by
lot and the eight chsldren were "called
out" on two sides much as sides are
chosen in a spelling bee. Then lots
were cast for the two farms. The home
place fell to Mrs. Scott, the other fell
to the old gentleman. Next the live
stock, horses, cattle and hogs, were
equally divided and then the grain,
meat, hay and other farm products,
and lastly the household furniture.
Next day Mr.. Scott removed with
his share of the property to his farm,
where he still lives at the age of so, and
fairly hale and active.
From the day of the separation until
the day Of Mrs. Scott's death they lived
actually apart. They did not visit each
other, and to all appearances had been
strangers all their lives. The children,
however. have always mingled and as
sociated together just the same as if
there was no estrangement between
their parents.
Mrs. Scott was good manager and
made money on her farm for many
years She attended personally to the
management of her farm. marketed her
crops, collected her bills and looked
carefully after her finances. She paid
her bills promptly and owed nothing
when she died. She was kind to peo-
pie in distress, loved he friends and de-
spised her enemies.
Mr.. Scott has managed his affairs
we'll and is noted for his strict integ-
rity aud honesty.
Thus, for thirty years, these two
strange people, man and wife in law,
have lived within sight of each other,
each attending to his or her own affairs
strictly, making making a good living
and bothering no one. not even them
selves, with their troubles. Parallel
cases are rare, and it is probable an
other dose not exist.

world the young lion whelps. 1t is said
when they are brought into the world
they are to all human appearance in a
lifeless condition. Then they are
placed in a circle with their mother
and the sire begins to circle around
them and keeps it up in uninterrupted
succession for three days and nights
with their noses close to the nostrels of
their young. Then the mother and the
mighty unconquerable monarch of the
forest put their noses to the ground
and makes one mighty laundering
roar. and the young lions spring into
life and activity in moment-in the
twinkling Of an eye. Sowhen sinner
is born into the world the divine spirit
finds him in a worse condition than the
young lion whelp.
