JUDGMENTS
In Two Important Law Suits.
Much Interest Manifested.
CASES WILL GO TO COURT OF APPEALS.

In the case of Wathen, &C., against
w. K. Azbill which involved about 767
acres of land in Clinton county, the
court decided that the land was pur-
chased by the plaintiffs and defendants
jointly or as partners, and directed that
it be conveyed to them-the partners
in the deal as is adjudged are Wathen,
Knott, Azbill, Bradshaw and Matson.
The other case was the suit of Geo.
F. Suits against j. T. Page, &C., for a
settlement of the affairs of the Adair
County Stave Co. The firm was COM
posed of G. F. Suits, Jas. T. Page and
L. B. Hurt, and did large business in
this and other counties. The chief is
sues between the parties were as to the
terms of the partnership and questions
growing out of the working and sale of
the timber upon the lands of Page.
The court adjudged that by the terms
of the partnership Page was to furnish
the money, and the other partners,
Hurt and Suits, were to, do the work
in the management of the business,
and each to share equally in the profits,
which amounted to several thousand
dollars.
Page was allowed five dollars per
thousand for the slaves made from his
timber.

MORE RAILROAD TALK.

A Scottsville correspondent to the
Louisville Post quotes Mr.. Allen as
follows in regard to the railroad:
eve haye now about thirty men at
work at Mckinney. This number win
be increased to about 200 within the

the road completed within three or fou

Scottsville is about $50 miles, and is
through some very rough country
Part of the distance will be completed
and in operation within one year. The
road will be built from Mckinney to
Liberty to Columbia, thence on to
Scottsville"
Financial matters have caused a delay
but Mr.. Allen says he now has the
money to complete the road.

PRAIsEW0RTHY EFFORTS.

''Put on the Whole Armor of God,"
was the Rev. M. M. Murrell's subject
at the Methodist church last Sunday
forenoon, and it waf very appropriate
one for young man to discuss. The
speaker upon that occasion, is a young
minister just entering the Gospel field,
and large congregation was out to
hear him, which seemed to inspire him
with new efforts to use the powers
within him. He delivered an exceed
ingly interesting sermon, which would
have been credit to minister who
has seen many more years service in
Gospel work. The points he
brought out indicated deep study Of
the subject, clear and convincing. The
all important safe guard in the Christ
ian is that man put on the whole ar
NOR Of God; the sandals of preparation;
the girdle of truth; the breast plate of
righteousness; the shield of faith and
the helmet of salvation; and any man
who goes forth to fight the good fight
of soldier of the cross with. thiearmor
thrown about him will succeed and come
out victorious, regardless of obstacles
or temptations that may come in his
way. We are thorough believers in en-
couraging young man in whatever he
may undertake in life, and when he
makes an effort deserving of praise. it
should be extended unto him.
Rev. Harry King, another young and
talented minister, was greeted with a
large audience at the evening service.
He took for his subject; BLESSED are
They Who Hunger and Thirst After
Righteousness handling his theme in
a clear and forcible manner. He twas
accorded close attention throughout his
discourse, every one who heard him be-
ing pleased with his effort. In closing
he gave the young men and young girls
tome wholesome advice, pleading with
them to accept Christ, and walk in the
straight and narrow path which leads
to eternal life.
