Married in a Lawyers Office.

Saturday afternoon, soon after the
arrival OF the train. buggy stopped in
front of Mr.. Sam A. Dunn's law office
on Main street, and at once there Was
a ripple of excitement, as there was
every indication OF contemplated

both of Bethel, N. G. They were &C.
companied by Mr.. and Mrs. w. j.

bent elsewhere and therefore in q
hurry, he soon discovered DR.. ]. E.
Shields whom he presented at Mr.
Dunn's office as suitable and compe.
tent official to perform the ceremony.

had procured license. Empowered by
said document DIR. Shields at once pro-
ceeded to take the marriage vows OF
Mr.. Nelson and Miss Flowers, pro-
nounced them husband and wife and
sent them out no more twain but
one.
There was a simmer OF romance in
the marriage, enough to make it inter-
esting had not the groom been hand
some and the bride pretty. The lovers
lived at Bethel and as oftentimes is
the case the path of true love was not
altogether smooth; and that is why
they were married in Scotland Neck in

Saturday.
Omitting details OF the little TO-
nance, pretty Miss Flowers became
Mrs. Nelson, and the happy pair drove
joyously away to Palmyra, where they
will live for time with Mrs. Jenkins.

Gentlemen -
Always have your church buy lin
seed oil at barrel prices. Don't let
them pay $l.5O gallon for canned
oil, which ought to cost but 80 cents a
gallon. Ready mixed paint Is about
half oil and half paint. Buy oil fresh
from the barrel, and add 1t to the L. &
M. Paint, which is semi-mixed, and
you then have full gallon of paint at
the lowest price.
4 gallons l.. & M. mixed with gal.

noon.
On Monday of this week the board
met and disposed Of the following busi-
ness:
Nick Lorenson. Geo. Eckert and Nj.

a. IS. and VIM. Axtell, Chas. Adams

John Campbell Of Lake City was APP
pointed truant officer for the third dis
trict.
A petition signed by fifteen citizens of
the vicinity Of Sun City was presented
to the board asking for a bridge across
the Medicine river south Of Sun. No
action was taken at this meeting.
In the matter Of the petition Of citizens
Of Valley township asking that the voting
place Of the precinct be changed from
Franklin schoolhouse to Isabel, the com-
ty attorney hled a written opinion to the
effect that the board had no authority to
act IN the premises and no action was
taken. The presumption is that the
township board is the proper authority
to regulate the voting place.
The board went to kiowa Monday
night and yesterday looked over the
bridge situation at that place. 1t is the
intention Of the board to contract for a
new steel bridge across the Medicine
river at that place. A representative Of
the A. NJ. Blodgett Construction Co. Of
Kansas City was here to meet with the
board and contract will doubtless be
closed.

Judge Burd Lacy Dead.

Judge Burd Lacy died at his home in
this city On Saturday, October 6, 1906,
at o:45 A. M. He had been unable to
be on ms feet for more than year and
while his death is deeply regretted,it was
not surprise.
Funeral services were held at the
Christian church Sunday afternoon. Rev.
w. II. Moore,pastor OF the M. E. church,
preached very appropriate funeral ser
mon. The Masonic fraternity Of which
Judge Lacy had been beloved member
since early life, were out in body and
! escorted the remains to the cemetery and
held impressive services.
Burd Lacy was 76 years. months and
days old. He is survived by FIVE
daughters and several grandchildren.
His wife preceded him in death about
four years, and son. John Lacy, died
in the latter sos. The three rest side
by side in Highland cemetery. Only
two daughters, Misses Rosa and Sarah,
and one granddaughter, Miss Katy, were
able to attend the funeral; the others re-
side In Montana and Indiana.
The tenderness and cheerfulness with
/ which the daughters at home cared for
this grand old man during his affection is
matter Of much comment and praise by
the people Of Medicine Lodge and VI
cinity, and while the parting is sad, they
have the consolation of knowing that they
did all that human hands could, and their
friends will always esteem them for their
devotion to their aged father.
Judge Lacy and his family came tc
Barber county from the state Of Indiana
in the spring Of 1882. Like all Of ou
early settlers, he has had his ups anc
downs IN this country but through it al
he held the confidence and respect o
his fellowmen. He served Barber coun
ty four years as probate judge-l89o t.
l903-and was twice police Judge o
the city Of Medicine Lodge.
| We realize that good citizen ha
been taken away and the friends Of tn.
deceased throughout the county bow il
grief with the daughters who mourn hi
final farewell to earth.
