relief came Unexpectedly and
providentially. Since then, each
Christmas Day, the entire COM
munity gathered at one place,
and these gatherings, growing
as the town grew, took on new
pleasures and devised new plans
for the celebration. The spirit
of Christmas spread throughout
the year and the spirit of peace
and good will prevailed uni
versally. In short Pleasant Val
ley was about the happiest little
community in the United States.
OF course, it had its sickness
and death and resultant sor-
rows, but Doctor Johnson was
its refuge in these cases. 1t had
occasionally its little tiffs, but
Judge Johnson settled them and
appeal from his decision was an
unheard of proceeding. Some
times there was want and Farm

called on.

Ladies Day" advertisement did
not draw very large attendance Of
the gentler sex at the ball game Fri
day afternoon but it was an interest
ing game just the same, each team
taking the lead at intervals.
The rooters were there and there
was just enough uncertainty in the
game after the fifth inning to keep
the spectators on tip toe.
The county boys appeared to be the
most consistent batters, but the Elks-
Century had spasmodic batting spells
that told in the end. Hardison and
Smith, however, failed to do the stick
work when it counted, each one strik-
ing out in the sixth inning when the
bases were full. Hardison was, how
ever, some pumpkins when there was
no one on the bases, as he got three
base hit in tie first and a home run
in the fourth.
Winfred Gilbreth, who played left
field for the winners, saved the game
for his team by his star field work
and a hit in the last inning that
brought Afford over the plate with
the winning score.
1t was hair raising finish. With
four runs necessary the Elk-Century
faced Frazier in the ninth inning and
their friends felt like 1t was all over.

she was taken to jail at Centreville
There was considerable difference

years and two children were born to
them. The children were aged re.
spectively about two and half years
and four months.
So far as the neighbors know and
in accordance with general informa-
ton they had lived in peace and hap
piness, up to couple Of weeks ago,
and this disagreement was told of by
the wife. At that time she alleges
that her husband became abusive to
her and treated her roughly at times.
On Tuesday night she alleges that he
whipped her, drove her onto the
porch, taking the children into the
rooms with him, and forced her to
remain there all night. She remain
