young wife is probably fatally in
jured.
The wife of young Hudson was
the beautiful 20-year-old daughter
of ex-Sheriff w. b. Lyens, of Wayne
county who figured so prominently in
eliciting every possible effort in be-
half of her father and brother, Archie
Lyens, during their long incarcera-
ton in the jails at Jesup, Brunswick
and Cordele, and their repeated trials
for their lives for the alleged mur-
der of NJ. Fleming Smith at Jesup In
December, 1908. Largely through her
efforts, it is believed, did the father
and son gain their freedom.
Soon after the long trial in Cor
dele during the latter part of Janu-
ary, at the conclusion of which her
father and brother were released by
the verdict of the jury in the case.
Miss Abbie Lyens, whose name was
on every tongue, was married to Hud-
son, she being his second wife

and Archie. together with their fam
lilies. moved away from Cordele, and
it is thought probable their persis-
tent efforts to induce the daughter to
follow them had something to do with
the working upon Hudson to the per-
petration of the tragedy
The doctors, upon a thorough ex-
animation are of the opinion that
while the wounds Of Hudson are seri-
Gus, it will not necessarily prove
fatal. though he is desperate wound

The many Brunswick people who
attended the trial here last year of
w. B. Lyons, for the murder of Flem-
ing Smith, viii remember Miss Abbie
Lyens, the pretty young daughter of
the ex-sheriff of Wayne county, who
was in the courthouse constantly dur
ing the trial, and who worked faith
fully in the fight for her father and
brother, who were on trial for their
lives. The yoll g woman attracted
more than ordinary attention by her
devotion to her father and brother.
She was unusually pretty and attrac-
tive.
She was married in Cordele sew
eral months ago and Sunday afternoon
was shot by her husband, who also
attempted suicide The following ar

THE ENROLMENT YESTERDAY
WAS LARGEST IN HISTORY
OF THE CITY.
Some of the Lower Grades of the Pub.
lie Schools are Crowded, But All of
the Children Will Be Comfortably
Accommodated.

With the largest attendance in their
history, the public schools of Bruns-
wick, as Well as the various private
institutions We're opened yesterday
morning, and though a crowded con
dltion prevailed in many OF the lower
grades of the public schools, there
being small overflow, all of the
children will be provided with seats
and it will not be necessary for any
of them to wait to be accommodated.
When the books were opened for
the registration of new pupils t6o
weeks ago by Superintendent Ballard
it was at once evident, by the in
crease in the number of new pupils,
that all attendance records would be
broken, and the board of education at
once took steps to provide extra seats
IN order that all the children could
be accommodated on the opening day.
Yesterday morning more children
reported for duty in Brunswick than
has ever before been the case. The
increase, as predicted by Superinten-
dent Ballard a few days ago, was an
proximately 20 per cent.
While the figures were not obtain
able yesterday, it is also understood
that practically all the private schools
of the city showed a correspondence
percentage of increase.
The first day, of course, was spent
in assigning children to their respec-
tive grades, seating them and pro-
yiding book lists. During the after
noon all the book stores were busy
and this morning the children will re-
port for active duty.
The healthy increase in attendance
should be encouraging to the people
of the city generally, as it naturally
means good increase in Brunswicks
population during the past year. While
it is generally acknowledged that
Brunswick's population has increased
more during the year than for the
same period within ten or fifteen
years, it was not expected that the
school attendance would show such a
large increase. Many cities estimate
their population according to the
school attendance, and if this,is done
in Brunswick it means a handsome
increase in population for the year
Superintendent Ballard is expecting
one Of the most successful school
terms since he has been in charge of
the local schools. He has one Of the
best corps of teachers to be found
anywhere in the state, among whom
are several who are here this term
for the first time. All in all the out
look is bright and it is expected that
much good will be accomplished dur
ing the term.
