MRS. MALLAnEY BORROWED
A RAT TRAP AND REAL
R0UGH RUmPuS RESULTED

The root OF the trouble, SAID W.T.
nesses before Judge Cony at the
municipal court Thursday. was
planted when Mrs. Mary Mallaney of
Chelsea borrowed Mrs. Howard's rat
trap and didn't return it promptly.
AS great oaks from little acorns
grow. the trouble spread and devel-
oped until it blossomed out in the
court room yesterday, whittier Mrs.
Mallaney had summoned Mrs. Rose
Howard to answer to the charge OF
being a common brawler.
1t seems that when Mrs. Mallaney
had had the trap for some time.
Mrs. Howard sent a note through her
attorney, demanding that it be re-
turned. Mrs. Mallaney did not re-
turn it, and she gave as the reason
for her negligence the fact that she
feared sudden and dire vengeance
should she set foot upon the Howard
premises. So ill-feeling resulted.
Mrs. Howard met her several times
and according to her testimony
challenged her to fight it out by
Marquis of Queensbury rules in the
center of the road, she refused. A
dog also figured. said to belong to
Mrs. Mallaney, and to be a source of
annoyance to Mrs. Howard. Much
of the testimony offered by Mrs.
Mallaney dealt with many and sun
dry appellations, none compliment
tary and most Of them unprintable,
with which she claims she was
dubbed by Mrs. Howard.
After listening for the better part
of the day to a vast mass of evil
dence from witnesses of the matter,
Judge Cony in view of the fact that
Mrs. Howard has long been promi-
nent in court society, tried his best
to get her to keep peace for year
on her own recognizance. She re-
fused fatty to do this, stating that as
she was innocent of the charge
brought against her, and had never
broken the peace, she would not give
bonds to keep what she already had.
Her attorney suggested that she ac-
quiesce with the judge, but she re-
fused, and shifted a verbal barrnge
from the complainant to the lawyer,
| which the judge suggested they
should talk over in the privacy of the
| ante-room. They adjourned for a
time and then Mrs. Howard, still
talking, returned to the court room.
III appeal on anything the Judge
finds" she said, ''and I'll give bond
for anything he says. I've got prop
erty"
After the case had continued for
a little while longer in view of Mrs.
Howards attitude. Judge Cony held
her in bonds of $3.50 to appear before
the next term Of the superior court.
She produced the bond and departed.

A Visit to an Old Cemetery,

| There are hundreds of old neglect

some of them with a great many
graves some of them with only one
lone grave. In the town of Liberty
on the highway road leading from
South Liberty to Liberty village near
the residence of Horace Nash is one
Of these very old cemeteries In this
neighborhood three quarters of a
century ago lived many prosperous
farmers who took pride in this par
ticular one. then called the "Cargill
| Cemetery" but later was changed to
the Moody Cemetery" The names
! of Cargill. Moody. Light, Lermond,
Overlook and Brown were among the
number who composed this prosper
Gus. God fearing, law abiding. un-
selfish and happy people, but as the
years came and went these families
dwindled down or became extinct,
many moving to other towns, cities
or states until today but very few
of the grand old families remain. AS
result the old cemetery, where
sleep many of these noble dead, has
become almost forsaken and sadly
neglected. On our first visit we no
ticed it was almost hidden from view
by bushes and trees. Many of the
stones had fallen down and some OF
them broken. l stood for few mo-

dear little babe who left behind
broken hearts-and now all these for

than 100 years old. I remarking also
the very little mounds, some without
any markers save stone from the
fields to show that. a human being
slept there. This fall I visited the
place again and through the earnest
efforts of Seth T. Overlook of South
! Liberty, a few had gathered and cut
! the brush and grass and righted
up some. of the stones which
made a great change for the
better. but there is a great amount
of work yet that should be done
to honor these noble dead by
further clearing up the yard, resetting
the broken stones. grading in places
and performing other very much
needed work.
Mr.. Overlook was assisted in hi.
noble undertaking by Frank and
Llewellyn Brown. all three giving
their services. two more being hired
to. help by relatives who could not
attend and help. Any of these lots
could be put in shape for a very
