As fast as the road builders repair the southern side of Fairfield avenue, putting on a coting of fine stone, and rolling it into a smooth surface with cement and steam rollers, a large gang of trench diggers follows on behind, digging a wide and deep ditch by the side of the trolley track, for the pur- pose of laying gas mains. It strikes the ordinary observer that the trenches should be dug before more money is spent improving the roadway. Ac- cording to reports it is the intention to dig up the whole length of Fair field avenue, and so on through the streets of the town to the Southport line.

! The brothers and sisters OF
Mr.. w. r.. Hunt were summoned
to Ackerman Sunday, Feb. 20,
to be with their eldest brother in
his last illness. Mr.. Hunt was
only fifty. seven years old but
prematurely aged from disease.
He has suffered from rheuma-
tism and other chronic troublrs
| for years. No doubt his death
was caused by uric acid poison.
He expressed willingness to
60 whenever God saw fit to call
him. He has been a prominent
member of the Methodist church
for many years and has raised a
large family in the love and faith
| of Christ Jesus. Some children
have gone on early but a loving
| wife, dutiful son, and four de-
voted daughters are left in the
desolate home. An aged father,
two brothers and four sisters
share their sorrow.

gether with the hearing of peti
t1ons for letters of administra-
ton, came before the Probate
Court at Holbrook.
Over ten days prior to the

representing the Swim heirs, filed
a motion asking for change OF
venue, alleging that the attorney
for the Breed interests, one Sid,
ney Sapp, was likewise acting
as Clerk of the Probate Court
before which the case was to be
tried. However, in the me rning
and before arguments were con-
cluded, regarding the proposed
change of venue, the different
witnesses subpoeaned at Wins
low were informed to appear
Irrespective of the allegations
made regarding the matter of
the clerkship of the Court, the
Judge assumed jurisdiction, de-
MED the motion tor a change of
venue, heard the case and grant
ed letters of administration to
Chas. Bond, and held the will
to be valid.
On the announcement of the
ruling of the court, the attorneys
for the special administrator
and Swim heirs withdrew from
any active participation in the
hearing, and have announced
an early recourse to the District
Court to compel the Judge of
the Probate Court to order the
transfer of the case as is COM
manded by statute.
