From all reports, Thursday night of
last week WAS lively one in Judge Cor
rick's Valley Distrck Court and one OF.
fetal has resigned his position on account
Of the danger that was supposed to ex-
iet.
1t seemed that lady residing nea + Bel.

pair Of ponies and the officials had gone
to get possession OF the said stock, where
upon the lady positively refused to part
company with them
The officers made his report that he
could not get possession and thereupon
resigned bis office. Reinforcements were
called for and two officers and an attorn
ey with an automobile went to the scene
OF the disturbance and after presenting
and placing on the lady in questiona pair
OF officials bracelets, brought her before
Judge Corrick who remanded her to The
county Jail for ten days for contempt Of
court. During the maneuvers incident
to the bringing OF the prisoner to court
one of the officials was bitten on the hand
and kicked several times on the shin.
Nevertheless the Ratchet has been buried
by all concerned and the dove OF peace
