Acting under the instructions OF
Governor Blease, Sheriff Sim J. Miller
visited Parr Shoals Sunday to enforce
the observance Of the Lords Day, it
having been reported to the Governor
that the day was not observed there
as required by the laws of the

ception by the bosses and men en-
ployed on this work and on making
known his business there after finding
no serious Sabbath breaking, he was
assured that the superintendent and
his men would observe the day in
keeping with the rest of the Christian
world and that if anything went
wrong along this line they would see
that the evil was corrected. The
sheriff returned home without bring
ing a single prisoner and delighted
with his pleasant experience there.
