From the acknowledgements Tribune.
Circuit Attorney Sager, the successor
TO one Joe Folk in the important posi-
ton, is becoming somewhat noted by
his stand In the matter Of the attempt
ed shooting of George Morton by Mrs.
Sprague. He has announced his inten-
ton to alloW the man to go free, and
to send Mrs. Sprague to the peniten-
tlary for ten years. He has declared
that If. in attempted palliation Of the
shooting. Mrs. Sprague should be al
lowed to Introduce evidence Of wrongs
suffered at the hands Of Morton, he will
dismiss the case against her and en-
deavor to secure another Indictment.
Whether the charges Mrs. Sprague
makes against Morton are true in every
detail or false in every particular Is not
the question. She charges her ruin
and disgrace to Morton. She alleges
that he represented her to be his wife,
acknowledged her as such, travelled
with her as such and then cast her
off and attempted further to disgrace
her. AS to the charges she makes, Mr..
Sager says: II couldn't make a charge
against him on accusations of that
character. He has done nothing of
which the law car take c~ognizance, If
Mrs. Sprague wants to prosecute him
on the charge Of striking her that is
another and a minor matter"

The camp was astir early the newt
morning. II it soon became ncised
about that We were to fall back but
only SO far as might be needful to find
a strong position. From this it was
evldent that a battle was imminent
though as yet there We're no signs OF
the approach of the patriots.
from the camp talk We, Tybee and I,

situation. A fortnight earlier Major

the challenged outnumbered the chaI-

was as prudent as he was brave
thought il best to make his stand al
some point nearer the main body of the
army; and SO the withdrawal from Gil
bert Town had fallen into a retreat
and a. pursuit.
