An item from Stephensyille says:
only one marriage license this week
and that for PRESLEY Edgar Young
and Miss ORC Lee Logsdon--and in
that lies a story--a story of trouble.
Mr. Young resides near DeLeon and
he came over one day last week and
presented to County Clerk Geo. p.
Knight an order from the father for
the license. He made oath that the
order was genuine and signed by the
father. The next morning he and
Miss Logsdon, fourteen years OF age,
eloped and were married. As soon as
the facts were known the girls
father came down and made com
plant against Mr.. Young and he was
subsequently arrested and placed
under bond to await the action Of
the grand jury"

country practitioner would expect after
having successfully treated typhoid

He had been TO see n patient some
eight or ten times. and decided he no
longer needed his attention, and sent
him bill. As he happened to be
passing the mans house one day, how
ever. he thought he would drop in and
see how he was getting along. This
he did, and found his condition salts
factory. AS he rose to go, the doctor
said:
Now, sir, you are in good shape. and
require no more medicine. You will
merely have TO eat plain food, and not
stay out late at night"
The patient sighed. "That was what
