THREE FINED IN MAYORS
COURT MONDAY MORNING

Last Sunday night between s and
8 o'clock, town marshal j. W. Boddie
arrested three white men, who gave
their names as A. ]. Keller, Thos
Keller and J. W. Ayers, on charges
of driving an automobile without
lights and carrying concealed weap.
ons. The three men were tried in
mayors court Monday morning, and
entered pleas Of guilty. A. Keller
paid a fine of $1.00 and costs; Thos
Keller was fined $500 and costs, and
J. W. Ayers was fined $500 and costs
for carrying concealed weapons and
$1.W and cost for driving without
lights. The $500 fine was suspend.
Thus, it seems rather an expensive
proposition to carry gun along in
the car, if one gets caught, as this
constitutes carrying concealed weap'
ons just as if the weapon was con
cealed on the person. The men stat.
ed they were from Monroe.

full time. Moody went to the girls
unknown and said:
Girls, all of you that can get away,
come down to the depot tomorrow.
He's going away at two o'clock"
Thirty-seven of the girls came. He
got in the train, and he sat with his
cheek leaning on his hand, pale, ex-
hausted from the effort, and the
girls walked with Moody and stood
under the window Before he knew
they were there they started to sing

Me Not, o Gentle Saviour" and 9TH
er hymns they'd learned, and the
engineer and fireman came back and
the conductor and people stood around
as they sang
Finally the conductor pulled out his
watch and cried, "All aboard"
The engineer and fireman went back
to the locomotive and the Sunday
school teacher came to the rear of the
train and stod leaning in the doorway,
holding on with one hand and with his
foot braced to keep from falling, his
other hand pointed to the skies.
The girls stood weeping and bid
ding farewell until the train rounded
the curve. The last vision they had
OF him he was pointing toward the
heavens. And before the snow COW
cred the hills of York State, they put
him in his grave. But he won everyone
of them for Christ. and some the best
Christian workers in Chicago were
among those girls that he turned from
sin to God. Mrs. Sunday made trip
from Steubenville. Ohio, to Chicago
just to attend the funeral of one of
them-my friend, Susan Povon.
