wife and children destitute. He had
been n bartender for some time past

the town. He came back a few days

force his wife and daughter to live
lives of shame, and failing in that, sold
everything in the house and attempted
to deliver the property to the pur-
chaser when mob gathered, put the

man who deserts his family in this
community.

tanned severe if not serious injuries.
The report is that he cracked his

stated that he was barely conscious,
yet this may be due from the stupor
resulting from medicine.
