It should be remembered by all that hogs cannot be kept in pens within half a mile of the court house at this season of tho year. Bill Dotson, after paying a fine of $15 and cost last week for dis turbing Docia Beck, went over that night and rocked the woman’s house and she and her little chil dren had to leave home, so she stated to the city marshal. Bill had belter quit this way of doing before his case gets into a higher court. Another thing, he might kill one of those little children and then the “jig” would be up with him and he would hate it when it is too late. There is a man who married a woman in this county three years ago. He took her to he a Chris tian he says because she would vis it various Baptist churches at night and shout and hollow till she could be heard a mile. But when the husband carries home a sack full of grub of all kinds of good things, she refuses to cook them and calls him every thing he says, except a white man. So ho has decided to live under a differ enl roof and these persons will not beat as one any longer.
