More than two years ago a boar
owned by Robert Marvel, over near
EastOn, Md, made its escape and took
to the tall timbers. For long time
it was given up as lost. Recently it's
raids on the corn fields of farmers
living in that section of Talbot county
and the injury he had been doing to
their cattle, became not only a nuis-
ance, but a considerable expense to
them. The tame pig had become a
"Wild Boar" and also dangerous, es-
pecially to children who often saw it
as they were making a shortcut
through the woods to the road to take
the bus to school. The children told
Mr. Marvel they had seen his boar in
the woods and that they had to run
| fast, fall over fences or climb trees
to get out of it's way lest it kill OF
injure them with its long tusks that
had grown out. Mr.. Marvel with Mr.
Emory Lienum, of Easton, who was
visiting him, went out cunning fol-
the boar. They found its tracks anC
soon saw it. Mr.. Ledum shot and hit
the boar, but the porker was away
like a deer. That same afternoon
they trailed the boar by blood marks
for five miles before they had the
chance to put another shot through
its body and kill it. The boar was {
"whopper." 1t measured three fee
in height and five feet eight inches il
lenghth, and was very fat.

LAND TITLE CONFIRMED
Decision Clears Up Cases of Property
North of City.

Title on approximately eighty
acres of valuable land just south
of Broad Ripple has been confirmed
in an Appellate Court opinion
sustaining decision of the Marion
Circuit Court in suit brought by
Clayton c. Coil against Louis F.
Schetter.
The suit sought to eject Schetter
from ten acres near F'ifty-Fourth st.

is said to dispose of similar suits
attacking the titles on contiguous
property. Failure of Jacob Coil, the
original owner, who died in 1887, to
include the words land heirs" or

basis of the suit.
