The case of Josiah Phillips came
up in the Sonora justice court, Fri
day, this being the day set for Justice
Scott to pronounce sentence upon de-
PENDANT, who was found guilty of fail
ure to provide for his minor children
at the jury trial of the case as stated
in our last issue. The sentence was
suspended as Phillips gave the proper
bond to care for the children as pro-
vided by law. Attorney j. 9. Web
ster, who appeared for Phillips will
most likely appeal the case to the
superior court. Phillips claims that
he always has supported the children
properly and desires to stand right
in the eyes of the law. Mrs Phillips
and her two minor children reside at
Groveland. Phillips gave $3.50 bond
with j. g. Webster and q. A. Bolli as
sureties. The obligation provides
that he will supply $50 per month for
the support of his minor children.
Mrs Phillips at present has a judg
ment against her husband, Josiah, in
the superior court, in her suit tor
maintenance instituted there several
months ago. This Judgment calls
for attorneys fees and costs and the
payment by Josiah of 575 per month,
making total now against Phillips
of Sl05 per month. We understand
bat this sum will be cut down. In
dependent.

Last Sunday the little son of j.
Hilbert had his leg mashed and
broken by falling off wagon in COM
ing down the Log town hill in Ell
Dorado county. Both wheels passed
over his leg below the knee badly
crushing both bones. The little
fellow received no medical attention
until he reached lone. The accident
happened early in the morning, and
it was o'clock in the afternoon when

badly swollen that there couldn't be
much done with it except to place it
in splints. Echo.
