AGED WOMAN IS Freed

A touching scene took place in the
Hastings Court here this morning
monday, July 12th) when Margaret
Eldridge, better known in her neigh
borhood, as Aunt Marguerite ap-
pearad before Judge w. Kirk Ma
thews to answer to an indictment
found against her July 6. 1926 and
balled July 7th with Melvin e.
White as her bondsman in the sum
of $500.U0. A jury had just found
a verdict of guilty in another whis-
key case, when Aunt Margarets
case was called The warrant against
her was sworn out by Officer ID. W.
Du ing and charged the storing at
10 w. Clay Street of six full half
gallon jars and one half gallon jar
of whisky, the latter being one
eighth full, the same being desig-
nated as ardent spirits.
LIQUOR ON BACK PORCH.
A g ass was found beside it. Aunt
Margaret was sitting on the back
porch, where the liquor was found.
Commemorative Attorney David E..
Satterfield quietly arose and inform
ed His Honor that this case was diff
ferent from the one that had pre-
ceded it. He did not believe the
woman was guilty and that he would
not ask for a conviction. He re-
quested permission from Judge Ma
thews ITO ask the jury to acquit her.
Judge Mathews, with evident feeling
gazed upon the colored woman and
asked her age. She replied that she
was seventy-seven years old.
WHITE ATTORNEY COUNSEL.
Attorney George v. Oliver (white)
was her attorney. Ee had dwe.t
upon the fact that she was of good
character, never having been inside
Of a courthouse before, not even as
a witness, in her life. 1t was then
after directing verdict of acquittal
that Judge Mathews called her be-
fore the bar and told, her to go home
and tell all of her people of the
value of doing right and living
right. He wanted 1t understood that
peope of her type and character
would find no trouble in that Court.
Those, who have frequented the
courtroom say that no such scene
had been witnessed there in a de-
cade. Aunt Margaret went out in a
most pleasant frame of mind and
she is delivering the judges mes

No Desire to Run.
After this, no one else showed
any desire to run for office. Eff
forts were made too to have Mr..
John Mitchell, Jr., to address the
Grand Lodge for half an hour. 1t
is noised around here that in a
conference with Sir Crowell he was
told that he would be required to
virtually submit to censorship, even
under a motion of personal priv
ilege. He was also told that he
would be parmitted TO speak upon
the report of the Committee hav-
ing in charge the report of the
Grand Attorney.
That Verbal Report.
MitchelPs friends considered this
trick for the reason that the
Grand Attorney made only a verbal
report. 1t was not in writing and
the committee accordingly never
made any report When the Grand
Attorney was asked about his right
to practice law and accordingly to
be Grand Attorney for the Grand
Lodge, he stated that he had his
license in his satchel to practice.
He had paid his tax in April and he
smilingly turned to Attorney Jos.
X. Pollard and is reported to have
said that he thought he was earlier
IN doing this than his associate.
Cannot Legally Practice Law.
The subject was dismissed with a
smile. Mr.. Mitchell was outspoken
in his statement that Attorney w.
H. G. Brown had no legal authority
to practice his profession in Vir-
giDia or to receive compensation for
such practice. This was why his
name never appeared on any of the
court documents with the name of
Jos. X. Pollard, who is a recognized
attorney in this State. Consultation
with attorneys and the examination
of the law brought out the fact that

BRITISH QUEEN
VISITS FAMOUS
CHILD CLINIC

LONDON, Feb. "a. = Queen Mary
heard more cockney today probably
than on any other day of her career
during her visit to Poplar, in the
east end. The occasion was the
queens inspection of the baby clinic
at ST. Katharine's college, the Oldest
philanthropic foundation in the king
dom.
Democratic Poplar is populated by
workers and did not appear disposed
at first to show enthusiasm about
royalty, but when the queen stepped
from her automobile into the street
with a friendly smile and began talk
ing to the mothers and children, the
GOODNESS soon disappeared.
AS the queen passed from one group
of women to another, chatting with
the mothers and chucking the babies
under the chin, she heard such eX-
carnations as faint she lovely" "Bli
me, she's bit of all right, ar'nt she?"
"Give 'er a clap; she's worth it,
followed by cheers as the queen drove
away.
