ings Thursday evening, March 18th,

the possible exception Of Saturday.
This is undoubtedly the greatest op-
portunity the people of Fredericktown
have ever enjoyed Of hearing such a
man as Dr. Wertheimer. The public
is cordially invited and the other
churches urged to attend these meet
ings. The revival efforts in this
place this winter have been OF the
nature Of a union endeavor on the
part of the members of all the
churches. It is being planned that
next year some great evangelist of the
Sunday or Lyons type will be engaged
to furnish this part of the county one
of the greatest revivals ever attemp-
ted, and the work being done now is
therefore of a preparatory nature to
unite all the Christian forces of the
entire community and get them in
good working condition.

Sues For $1,000
Barton w. Blair, administrator de
benis non of John e. Russell, deceas-
ed, has commenced an action In the
court OF common pleas of Knox county
against william C. Russell and the
American Surety Company, in, which
the plaintiff seeks to have the de-
PENDANTS pay over the sum of $4,000
which 1t is alleged Is due the estate.
The plaintiff in his petition states that
On December Is, 1908, VIM. G. Rus
cell was appointed administrator of
John e. Russell, giving bond In the
sum of $4,000 In the American Surety
COMPANY. On March %, 1909, the de-
fendant VIM. C. Russell gave an ad-
ditional bond of $4,000 in the Ameri-
can Surety Company, making total
bond of $4,000. The petition alleges
that up until July %, 1918, the admin.
Btrator collected assets of the estate
including the sale of real estate, to
the sum of $1S,89t.45, but that he re-
fused to file an account in probate
court, showing what money was due
the estate as assets, as required by
law. The petition states that on July
80, 1918, the defendant, VIM. G. Rus
cell was removed as administrator OF
the estate by the probate court and
that Barton w. Blair was appointed
administrator de bonis non. The
plaintiff states that he has requested
the defendant to file an account, but
that he has refused and neglected to
do SO. The plaintiff therefore asks
that the defendants be compelled to
turn over the sum of SIT 900. which is
claimed, is due the estate. The at
torneys for the plaintiff are Blair &
Blair and Columbus Ewalt.
