DIES IN COUNTY

Mrs. Elizabeth Riggs, wife of
James Riggs, of the Grassy Lick
neighborhood, died suddenly Satur-
day evening at her home. Mrs.
Riggs had been a sufferer from
diabetes for a number of years,
but had been attending to her
HOUSEHOLD duties, and worked in her
kitchen up to noon Saturday. She
complained of feeling badly about
noon and went to bed, growing
gradually worse until death came in
a few hours. Mrs. Riggs home
before her marriage was in Indiana,
and she is survived by several
sisters. Her husband also survives
her. Mrs. Riggs was SO years old,
and had resided near Grassy Lick
for over thirty years, having been
member Of the Methodist 'hurch
at that place during that time.
She was one Of the best women
that ever lived in Montgomery
county and was always happiest
when doing some church work or
assisting those in sickness and dis
tress. So this life has passed into
the joy of her Lord, the memory of
her life must prove a perpetual in

CIRCUIT COURT
NOW In SESSION
Judge Vim. A. Young Compliments
County oficIaIs for Enforcing
Liquor Laws.

Circuit Judge VIM. A. Young
opened the January term of the
Montgomery Circuit Court Monday
morning with the most powerful,
mastery and comprehensive in
structions to the Grand Jury it
has ever been the writer's privi-
lege to hear.
He insisted that any violations of
the liquor laws be rigidly investi-
gated and paid high compliment
to the county officials for the
splendid manner in which they had
performed their duties under that
law. He also said he wanted the
violators Of the gambling laws in
dicted and stated that he intended
to see that this evil was eradicated.
He dwelt at length upon the evils
Of whisky and gambling, and said
that nearly ever crime was trace
able to them and that during his
term of office he intended to fight
those two great evils for the pro-
lection of our young men, stating
that should it become necessary,
he would empanel a special grand
jury for the purpose.
Judge Young said that during his
campaign for the judgeship he had
promised the people that the laws
should be enforced and that it was
his intention, ambition and purpose
to show them that he was sincere
in this promise and to prove to
those who honored him with their
confidence and suffrage that Their
trust had not been misplaced.
In the stand he has taken for
law enforcement he deserves the
support of every loyal citizen and
we take this opportunity of offer
ing the columns of this paper to
assist him in this laudable under
taking.
