Imagined a Love Match

Aildillds MAJ 4NONs A~
years ago Miss Julia Choate
Crumley, daughter Of Rev, How
ard Lee Crumley, superintend-
ent Of the Baptist Orphans
Home, and one of the most prom
inent ministers in Atlanta. went
to Johns Hopkins Hospital in
Baltimore to be operated on.
She was a lovely girl, a music
teacher, popular socially, and
apparently her mind was as sane
and clever as anyone's. After
three months in Baltimore she
returned to Atlanta and told her
family that her life was saved
there by the physician who at
tended her. She gave his name
as being DIR. Alleyne Hens
ley said he was a widower
with one child and made his
home in Quebec. Canada. Some
letters postmarked Quebec came
to Miss Crumley with boxes Of
candy and flowers. She SAID
they were from the doctor,
and one day announced that they
were engaged.
About a year later she said the
doctor had written her he was
very i'll at Baltimore and could
not marry her. She said she
was going to him From Balti-
more she wrote her family that
she found him we'll and
happy and that he had pretended
to be sick because he cid not
want to marry her. She returned
to Atlanta apparently heart
broken. But a s. ort time later
more letters began to come from
Canada. She spoke of a recon-
citation, the wedding date was
fixed for Nov. II, and so an
nounctd in the Atlanta papers.
Miss Crumley selected her brides
maids and her flower girls. She
was given teas, parties and show
ers. She set out last week for
New York to complete her trous-
se2u.
Then suddenly she wired her
family that "Dr. AIIeyne" was
killed in a wreck out west; that
she was going to Chicago to get
his body.
Wednesday Miss Crumle7 ar
rived in the city with a casket.
1t was taken to H. M. Patterson
& Sons, undertakers, the funeral
set for Thursday afternoon.
Wednesday night, surrounded
by her parents, the girl was
questioned by DR.. Bates Block, a
nerve specialist. She broke down
and confessed all.
Or. Alleyne Hensley' was
alive only in her Imagination.
their courtship was make believe.
she had written the letters hel-
self, the candy and flowers she
had ordered sent to herself and,
strangest revelation of all, the
body, she said, was bought at
the public morgue in Chicago.
Now the police are trying to
find who the dead man is.

WITCHES BLAMED FOR OHIO
EPIDEMIC

Witches were once blamed for an
epidemic of distemper among horses
in Hamilton county.
Finding the usual remedies of no
avail the veterinarians baffied in the
treatment of some fine stock, a veal
thy and respected farmer of Mill
Creek in 1914, decided that he was
the victim of witchcraft.
Consulting fortune tellers, who
claimed knowledge of how to destroy
the witch, he boiled herbs and roots
in large kettle, which, it was claim
ed would greatly distress the evil
spirit bodily and mentally.
While boiling the concoction, he
stood in the door of his house and
saw his dadghter-in-law a short dis
tance away running to a spring.
Jumping to the conclusion that the
woman was the witch, frantic with
the tortures of the needles and pins,
he ordered her and his son off the
farm.
The cauldrOn experiment failing,
the farmer conceived the notion that
Mrs. Garrison, an aged woman living
ten miles away, and who was near
death from decrepitude, was to blame
and he openly condemned her for i'm
agined activities against him.
Told to shoot silver bullet into
a horse while the witch was in it to
break the SPELL the farmer prepared

A HUNDRED AND
FORTY YEARS AGO
THIS SECTION OF OHIO WAS A PART
OF CANADA UNDER THE
BLASTED BRITISH
Putnam County Sentinel ]

But a few of the present genera
tion are aware of the fact that the
territory now embraced in Putnam
county was a part of the province of
Quebec, Canada, and ruled by Great
Britain. 1t was so designated by the
British Parliament, in the year 1774,
but as every student is familiar of
the fact and how long the territory
of Ohio remained under British gov
ernment it is not necessary for us to
refer to the matter more at length in
this brief history.
Prior to 1850 the lands in this ter
ritory were owned and controlled by
the Algonquin family of Indians, con-
sisting of the tribes of the Wyan-
dottes, the Delawares and the Shaw
nees.
In the treaty made at Fort McIn-
tosh in the year 1885, this part of the
now State of Ohio, was assigned by
our government to the Ottawas, Wy
andottes and Delawares. By treat
les made in 1905, 1918, 1920 and
1892 the remnant of these tribes sold
the last acre they possessed and de-
parted to what is Franklin county,
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1915-03-26

Kansas, where a few OF their descen-
dants still remain.
While Knapp's History of the Mau-
NEE Valley gives a good history OF
these latter treaties and much other
valuable historical data, IL is silent in
regard to many interesting events oc-
curing in this part of the State prior
to the war of 1912, which no doubt
were worthy of record in history.
So far as the local history OF Put
nam county is concerned we have
been unable to obtain a more intelli-
gent account than that written by
George Skinner, one of the early set
tiers of his county, and man OF rare
intelligence and great probity Of
character. Mr.. Skinner was a civil
engineer by occupation and a resi-
dent of Kalida, this county for many
years. In an Atlas OF the county,
printed thirty-four years ago, Mr..
Skinner wrote a history of Putnam
county. AS but a limited number Of
copies of this history was ever pub
lished, and as but few copies are now
in existence, for the benefit of the
persent generation of our fellow citi-
zens, we will copy various items from
this history:
The first law proclaimed by the
Governor and Judges of the North
west Territory, July 25, 1888, was
entitled, IAN Act for regulating and
establishing the malitia," in which
it was provided that "all able-bodied
male inhabitants between the ages of
eighteen and fifty years, should pro-
vide themselves with rifle or a mus
ket, shot-pouch and powder-horn,
four pounds of bullets, one pound of
powder, wiping stick, six flints and
printing wire, and to be and appear
fully armed and equipped on every
Sunday, at 10 a. m, at the usual
place of holding public worship"
February IL, 1920 the Legislature
of Ohio proceeded to divide that part
of the lands, a short time previously
ceded by the Indians to the United
States, into fourteen separate coun-
ties. The first was Van Vert, the
second Mercer, and the third to in
clude townships one and two, south,
and one and two north, on the fifth,
sixth, seventh, and eight ranges,
and to be known by the name of Put
name and that the counties of Han
cock, Henry, Putnam, Paulding, and
Williams shall be attached to the
of Wood.
February 2, 1924, the county of
Williams was organized, and Henry, |
Putnam, and Paulding counties at
tached for judicial purposes. In 1884 |
Putnam was organized as a sepa- /
rate county; and in 1S47, the Legis-
Iature reduced it's boundary lines to |
the present form, adding on the west |
eighteen sections of land, and taking .
from it on the south one hundred and .
fourteen sections or a loss of over .
thirty thousand acres of land on the
duplicate.

SINGLE TAX AND THE FARM
[Oliver Knight in Pennsylvania
Grange News

NA1AhN ANNNR
The Single Tax does not propose
to confer any special" benefits on
farmers. business mep, manufactur-
ers, mechanics or laborers; IL mere
ly proposes to take for all the values
which arise from the presence, CO.
operation and progressiveness Of all,
and to leave untaxed and free in the
hands OF its creators all values which
are due to individual industry. How
would such plan of taxation effect
the farmer, or how would IL work
out" in a farming community? Let
us take any county in the state
where agriculture is the chief indus
try. The county needs revenue. How
can IL get IL without violating the sa-
cred right of private property, or the
principles of morality and justice
laid down in the Sth commandment
and the Golden Rule?
IL seems TO me that the farmers
of our tax laws have never paid
enough attention to this latter ques-
ton and il is because they have not,
that taxation means to most men
NtAdllOuN anu uuHOlNth nlObANAis
The application of the farmers la
Dor to land produces the wealth,
which, by every principle of right
and justice, belongs to him as against
all the world. The county auhori-
ties will protect him against the en-
croachments of those who would de-
spoil him of any portion of his wealth
but has no hesitancy, in fact, our
laws declare they must do this very
thing themselves, and taxes are lev
led on private property. If private
property is to be taken out of our
taxation lists, where then can the
county get its revenue? My answer
is, by the taxation of land values.
Privately owned wealth can only |
exist, because human labor and en- |
terprise have been expended by indi-
duals. Land value does not arise
from such a cause. 1t can only arise |
from naural advantage or the pres
ence of population. The only reason |
that land values are higher in Phila-
delphia county than the land values |
in Columbia county is because of its |
natural advantages, and because sew
eral million more people prefer to
live in and around Philadelphia !
county than in Columbia county. No
industry or enterprise
could produce this difference in land
value. Why not take this value for
the benefit of all?
In Columbia county certain lands
are decidedly more fertile and more
easily "farmed" than other portions.
They are nearer to a city market or
to a railroad station, or a steamboat
landing. Owing to public eXpendi-
.ure, some sections may have better
roads than other sections.
These are the things that the far
ner should pay for in taxation. If
ne enjoys none of these things he
should pay little or no taxes. Would
his not be safe and sane, scientific
md satisfactory solution of the taxa
ion problem, and would it no square

Useful
New Invention
Enables Anyone to Play
Piano or Organ With
out Lessons

A Detroit musician has invented
wonderful new system which enables
any person or little child to learn to
play the piano or organ in one even
ing. Even though you know abso-
lutely nothing about music or have
never touched piano or organ, you
can now learn to play in an hour or
two. People who do not know one
note from another are able to play
their favorite music, with this method
without any assistance whatever from
anyone.
This new system is called the
Numeral Method We have secured
the sole agency from the inventor,
and, as we are desirous of at once
making it known in every locality,
we are making the following special
free trial and half-price offer to
everyone.
You are not asked to send any
money until you have tried and are
satisfied with the new method. We
are willing to send it to you on free
trial, and you will not have to paw
one cent unless you desire to keep it.
There are no express charges to be
paid, as everything will be sent by
mail. Simply write us a letter or
postcard saying: please send me the

you are satisfied after trying it, the
Method and fifty different pieces of
sheet music will cost you only SIS,
although thee regular price Of these
is $40. You should not delay writing,

Apparently better at first, after the

and was operated upon for the second
time about the first of February. She
stood the operation but never gained
strength enough to be up and around
