had agreed to pay John Stidham $500
in money and give him span of
mules and wagon to marry the girl
and claim that he was the guilty party.
During the course of the trial Mrs
Taylor, the mother, declared on the
stand that her statements formerly
made were lies that she and her little

breathing spell. Let us take an in
ventory and see what We have done
in a Legislative way since November
18th, 1907. Give us the opportunity to
put into operation the laws we have
and study results. Then If changes are
needed or new laws desirable we car
