Mrs. Alice Webb was married to
Broifie l.. Duke in this city on Deem
Der 10. 1904. AS soon as the family
heard of the marriage they secured IN

county, by which Brodie l.. Duke was

When Duke was arrested the whole

the sensations of the year. Duke final
ly was released from the sanitarium'
by direction of the court. The suit
for divorce brought by Duke is based
upon statutory grounds.

morning Mr.. A. v Kornegy. secretary
and treasurer of the Goldsboro Buggy

and drew $3.50, as was his custom, to
pay off his employees at the factory.
After he left the bank he came up
to the Goldsboro Drug company S

was all in silver in the drug store
safe. He called back there this after
noon about o'clock and went to get
his money, but it was gone. A search
was instituted, but the money was
not to be found. Where the money is
or who got it is u mystery as no
stranger was seen in the store any
where near the safe.
There was tried in this city this
afternoon before Justices Hill and
Humphrey a case which attracted no
little attention. DR.. J. r. Stockard q
dentist, had accused young insurance
man by the name of Baseden of forg-
ing a check on him for twenty-five
dollars at the national bank. After
hearing the witnesses on both sides,
among whom was Mr.. G.. c. Kornegy,
cashier of the bank, who said that the
check was duly signed by DR. Stock
ard and was not a forgery, and after
hearing able counsel on both sides
they reserved their decision until
Tuesday.
Mr. Baseden has lon1y been a citi-
zen of GoldsboTo for three years, but
in that time by his manly walks in
life has made hosts of friends who
will wish him a clean exoneration from
this charge.
