Tangier Island Convert Confesses Old
Fault and Fights Follow.

Onancock, Va, Oct. 2S.-Eight
years ago two young girls on Tangier
Island caught chicken belonging to
a neighbor, and after the necessary
preliminaries ate it. Both girls mar
ried and remained fast friends. At a
recent revival one of the women made
a profession of religion. The next day
she went to the woman to whom the
chicken had belonged and insisted up
on, paying for it, at the same time i'm
plicating the other woman, who was
incensed at being exposed. The hus-
bands of the women took hand in
the matter, and in short time the
sentiment on the island was very even
ly divided.
Several fights took place, in one OF
which Captain Parks is alleged to
have stabbed. and otherwise badly
manned Mr.. Lamden, the officer Of
the island. Parks was arrested and
lodged in Accomac Jail. The case was
tried last week, Judge Fletcher on
the bench.
About so witnesses were examined,
most of them women. The jury
brought in a verdict of one month in
jail and a fine of $25.
