of the moil horrible crimes ever

while the two were in a buggy go
ing to their home ftom Raines lust
September. Both of the Bundricks
made their escape but Andrew was
captured in a few weeks in Craw
ford county and brought here and
placed in jail to await trial.
When Judge.Littlejohn mounted
the stand and wrapped for order
the court house was crowded to its
seating capacity. The first case
called was that of the State vs An

1 ithetic scene took place in the coutt

‘ assisted to the witness stand on a
crutch by relatives. She had been
examined by the Solicitor and was
being questioned by Col. G. W.
Busbee for the defense when she
was seized with a feinting spell and
had to be removed from the court
room.
A motion was then made by
Col. Busbee to declare a mistrial
which wus refused and Mrs.
Shrouder was brought back to the
stand on an inclined chair. Col
Busbee however, refused to ques
tion her further on account of her
condition.
Thecourt then took a recess un
* - til 1:30. The Solicitor only ex
J umined a few witnesses upon the
v reconvening of court when be an
nounced that the State would rest
for awhile.
Col. Busbee then put up a num
ber of witnesses for the defense
and the defendant then made bit
statement which lusted several min-
utes. Several witnesses in rebut
tal were then put up by (he Solic
itor and ull of the evidence was
-concluded about 4:30 o'clock.

noon and tbe charge of the court
wus then delivered. The jury went
to their room a. few minutes after
4 o’clock.

town of UnadiUa have had civil cases
in court this suasion, but they have
suffered very little, as in nearly every

We ate glad to see Vienna taking the
lead for, a county fair, and we trust
that it will be a success Let all parts
of the county Join in and make it a
success, and let the management re
member the public schools in working
out the premium list. Give a premium
to the school that make* the best ex
hibit, also one to the pupil that makes
tbe best individual, exhibit of work
done. This,.-we believe, would be a
great, stimulus to our schools. What
you say, managers of the Dooly County
Fair Association?
