Revenue Scrip Case.

Judge Simonton has reserved his de-
cision on very important case that
has just come up before him, which in
wolves this validity of the famous Blue
Ridge bond scrip and is of special in
terest to this County, having originated
here. In 1900 w. II. Lyles, Esq, Of
Columbia, returned tract of lnnd
consisting OF 500 acres in district II of
this county. In payment of taxes on
the same, which amounted to $15.1S,
he offered S18.1S in silver and copper
coins, and for the other SO offered
i've dollar scrip, demanding no change.
Treasurer Wylie refused to accept the
same i'll payment Of said taxes, and 80
the land was sold under execution.
The jury to whom the matter was sub
mittcd decided that the land was own
ed by w. II. Lylcs, that he offered tho
scrip in payment, that the scrip was
issued by the State treasurer according
To the act OF 1872. and that the value of
the tract of land sued for was $4,000.
The judge decision will be- awaited

MoseIey Doings.

Again the monotony of our quiet
little ncighbOrhood has been broken by
the merry ring of wedding bells. Your
scribe had the pleasure of being one Of
party of friends to assemble at the
hospitable home of our esteemed
friends, Rev. and Mrs. II. G. Martin, on
last Tuesday evening, 18th inst, to
witness the marriage Of their younges t
daughter, Miss Jennie, to aIr. w. M.
Smith, OF the Waco section of our
County. Promptly ut o'clock the
father of the bride in short, but vel
chosen ceremony, pronounced the fatal
words that linked their future dcsti
nics. The bride was bec0mingly dress
ed in white, which added very much to
her grace and beauty
At the conclusion OF the ceremony
the guests were invltctl to the dining
room, where the hospitality of orr host
and hostess shOnc with all its bright
ness, and we cannot express tho pleas
ing sight that met our gaze. The long
table was ladcncd with everything that
heart could wish, where all spent very
pleasant half hour.
The bride is very popular in this
community, and we regret very much
to see her leave, but Cupids will, not
ours, be done. The groom is pro-
gressive young farmer of Waco, and is
to be congratulated upon his success in
winning tho hand and heart of such n
charming young lady, who will grace
his homo with the dignity of q queen. i.
Tho health of the community is good
Mt present, except Mr.. w. l.. Bond, who
has been very sick for the past few
days, but is now convalescent.
Mr.. j. l.. Morgan, of this place, is
making preparations to leave for JEFF
fcrson County, Texas, soon after
Christmas. We regret to see him
leave, but commend him to tho good
people wherever he casts his lot.
This community has suffered great
deal ut the hands of q band of thieves,
who have been stealing cotton and corn
from many of our farmers. Messrs. S. II.
Mccullough and j. NJ. Bolts lost about
one thousand pounds of cotton each
some time ago, and several others have
lost smaller amounts. All efforts to
catch tho rOgues have failed so far.
From all appearances Christmas will
be rather dull in this community as
usual. r..
