GINA family. Martha Danridge had
been for more than year the widow
of the wealthy Daniel Parke Curtis
when George Washington met her
while dining at the home OF Major
William Chamberlayne.
The general so historians say. was
instantly smitten She was but 25
years old at this time, radiant with
the rare beauty Of that graceful period,
elegant. accomplished, dignified, tact
full. In January, 1859, just after
Washingtons northern campaign. they
were married.
Being a true aristocrat, Martha
knew also how to be democratic, and
she conceded strongly with her hus-
bands patriotic views, defending him
dIueutlg against llS uulneIOuS dItdChS
of her Troy relatives. To one she
wrote in the early days of the Revolu-
ton:
Yes, I forcee consequences-dark
days. domestic happiness suspended,
social enjoyments abandonded, and
eternal separations on earth possible.
But my mind is made up, my heart is
in the cause. George is right; he is
always right. God has promised to
protect the righteous, and I will trust
him

CONSTABLE r. B. CANARY
FULFILLING HIS DUTY

Mr.. r. B. Canary, of Fordsville,
who recently assumed his duties as
special peace officer at McHenry, Is
making a splendid record and has
already begun to deliver the goods.
He brought to the Sheriff's Office last
Wednesday one of the most unique
stills ever seen either in pre-or
post Volstead days. Its boiler con-
sisted of a teakettle, holding about
two gallons and the heating appara-
tus was an ordinary gasoline burn
err. Instead of worm. the opera
tor had utilized a sponge to catch
and condense the alcohol vapor,
pressing the liquor out with his
hands. The outfit was found by
Constable Canary hanging in tree,
in the woods near McHenry, but no
trace of the owner could be found.
The kettle was full of mash and
about gill Of moonshine was found
in a fruit jar. 1t is estimated that
the capacity of the still would be
about a pint day.
Roy Ensor. of McHenry. was ar
rested by Mr.. Canary, Thursday on
a charge OF keeping intoxicating Ii
quor for sale. He was brought to
Hartford and placed in jail. but gave
$500 cash bond, Saturday and was
released.
William Oliver was placed under
arrest, Saturday night. by the same
officer and brought here, Sunday.
He is now in Jail. Breach of the
peace is the charge. 1t is reported
that he was drunk and disorderly
and beat up his father-in-law.
Mr.. Canary is to be commended
for the active effort he is making to
curb lawlessness. He is furnishing
an excellent example Of whole
hearted performance of duty on the
part OF peace officer. Its effect
will be salutary upon lawbreaker,
fellow-officer and the citizenship OF
the county.
