In 1862 Thomas Adams, master of arts
and fellow Of Brasenoee College, Oxford,
was elected from his living for holding
non-conformist views. Obtaining a post
as Chaplain to LAde Glare. at Neither
Heyford. near F1ore, he founded for the
residents Of the surrounding villages a
Quaker meeting house. where Friends
were wont to convene during many years.
This is the cottage now occupied by Mrs.
Quinn. AS the Quakers died off, they
were buried in the plot in front Of their
meeting house-now the vegetable gar
demand. according to their custom, with
out footstone, headstone or memorial of
any kind The burial records OF F1ore
show that altogether some seventeen
persons were buried in this plot. fourteen
OF them bearing the name Of Dunkley and
three the name of Adams. one of these
being the elected clergyman, who died.

and became the father of son who ul-

presidency of the Union. The coincidence
is worth marking that Washington's an

not six miles away, while those Of Frank

miles away on the Wellingboro road.

Although slight signs of renovation are

Rankin Reads, Minutes

Secretary Rankin was required to
read from the minutes OF the Burnley
Society's various actions taken at
various times by the Executive Com
mittee in an attempt to show that the
society is monopoly and in re-
straint of trade under the Sherman
antitrust law. The lawyers for the
plaintiff made but little progress in
this direction and at the end of the
days session the attorneys Of the
Burley Society felt that the battle
so far has been decidedly in their
favor.

Secretary Rankin testified that he
did not know where the records were.
Rankin read reports of the society's
meetings and told how at one session.
resolutions were passed condemning
the use Of violence by ''Night Rid
ers."
Lawrence Maxwell, who examined
the, witness, tried to bring out fur
Their details about the "Night Ri
der" resolutions whereupon Judge A.
P. Humphrey, of Louisville, one Of
the attorneys for the Burnley Society,
entered an objection. He said the
society had nothing to do with the
"Night Riders Judge HOLSTER
sustained the objection.
What the Minutes Told
The minute books stated that at
one time 100000 was held in
Brown county, Ohio, through the
sale of pooled tobacco. Maxwell
asked why the minutes said this
money had not been distributed, and
Rankin .'ersied THAI be presumed
payments had not been ordered by
the District Beard Of the society.
Attorneys for the Burnley Society
again objected and Rankin's answer
was stricken. from the court record.
Tho Eshelby Company is suing the
society for $5SS,795 damages,
charging that it was a trust and
forced the price of tobacco to exhor-
bitant figures.
