Cavalier Took the Court House


-Four gentlemen of Cavalier, Messrs
Mcbride, Often, Sturdivant and Robbie
were over on Wednesday. They were Just
an hour and a half getting to this So
called inaccessible corner and were at
the court house Is minutes before
business hours at nine o'clock and the
arrival of the county officers Janitor
johnson was on hand however and he
says that the rumor that ex-countv
treasurer Mcbride attempted to pry
out brick from one corner to take
home as nest egg is untrue because.
as Mr.. j. says, "How could he when
l was there with my two dogs" AS
soon as the officers arrived the Cav
alier gentlemen went at wo1k at the
old records, and the results of the
digging will probably be given in the
Chronicle of next week. However.
they actually took the court house
and the other-outbuildings-all right
with kodak. They omitted how,
ever to invite the "sons and dottirs"
referred to by our Irish friend last
week, to stand on the steps and add
some beauty to the landscape. After
their doing the court house, the party
went over to Europe to visit with
our Canadian cousins. Come again,
gentlemen.

the vote.
