Lewis Adams, Atlantic City's first
school teacher, died at noon Saturday,
at his home in Pleasantyille, Of all
ments incident to his advanced age Of
gI years. The funeral was held Tues
day morning in Mt. Pleasant M. ?.
Church, intermentN being made in the
old cemetery adjacent to the church.
When MI. Adams first came to At
: lantic City, young school teacher,
there were not over dozen families
: in all having children to send to his
school. which was held in dwelling
for want Of school house.
~ firing Of the classroom, he ventured
inta seafaring career, pursuit
which was at that time followed by
nearly every man along the shore who
could raise enough funds to build a
L schooner or buy q share in one. On
'ketiring to land life after some years
4 Of eventful cruising along the coast
and in the West Indian trade, Captain
Adams established his home in Flaas-
zantviIle, where he was born in 1921

Always of a studious turn of mind,
and devout member Of the Methodist
Church, Mr.. Adams then prepared for
the ministry, and was eventually Ii
censed by the New Jersey Conference

STEBBINSVILLE COURT THE
SCENE OF A GENUINE
MOCK TRIAL

At the conclusion of a mock trial,
which, entered for the recovery of
$18,0G0 for damages arising from an
alleged breach of promise to marry,
and which consumed about four hours
Of illegal" battling, sufragette jury,
with exception Of man foreman,
awarded Helene Stewart, alias Helen
Collins, damages of &c, and inflicted
a further punishment on Algernon
Fletcher, the defendant, who was per-
sonified by Stanley Zippler, of him
having to wear black sniudge on his
nose until midnight. The Cease" was
tried at Stebbinsville Court, before
"Hon. Judge" R. L. Race, and featur-
ed with every variety of sensations
such as are evident in real cases Of
that nature. Everything was intro
duced in the testimony, from evidence
given by maid peeking through a
key hole on the eve the alleged fatal
contract" was spoken to "dictagraph
records" the latter having been con
ceived and introduced by both sides
counsel. The plaintiff, by the way,
was ably represented by Williams Adj
am Rogue, known in real ife as Roger
Williams, and defendants representa-
tive was Tell-A-Lye Wootant, known
better as T. g. Wootton.
The "triap was under the auspices
of the Salem Literary Society, and
the members were out in force, all the
balance of the members taking parts
as court officers, witnesses, etc.
The jury, composed Of women,
which is said to be the first suffra-
gette jury in this section of the coun-
try, gave good service and unbiased
opinions, and were only "out'' Is min
utes to arrive at decision.
The two lawyers" who were. both
IN it to win, -were engaged IN many
"tilts", and. but for the timely inter
ference of the Judge and Court Off
GERS, they would have produced more
interesting spectacle than a trial.
Their summing up took about 35 min
utes and resulted in one Of the jury
and several spectators falling asleep,
but every unpleasant" argument that
contained many hurled "sacasms,o 2
etc, were smoothed over nicely by the
refreshments which were served fol-
lowing the trial. There is ikeli-
hood, because of the success last Fri
day night, of the "trial" being pre-
sented before the public, but in the
event of that idea becoming effective,
due notice will later be given. Plans
may be made for a mock wedding for
the naxt meeting. About thirty-five
members were present last meeting.
