when found, was prostrate and un
conscious. The daughter was car
ried home in this condition.
In the meantime Mr, Shaw wa
sending word to all who had bought
any of the meat not to eat it, but
when the news arrived at each place
he found all who had eaten any of
the meat in a serious condition.
Every doctor was out of town.
Dr. L. C. Allen was first to return
at 7 p. m. He at once attended to
all the sufferers and relieved them.
Those poisoned were: Mrs. W. T.
Shaw, Miss Lola Blalock, Charlie

All of the affected ones are now
considered out of danger.

VIEWS Of A WINK RITE.
It is strange, yet not surprising,
to see how many of the best citi

they are unaware of in it’s truest
sense. That is notoriety.
It is more or less natural that a
