Tom Marshall was engaged in the trial of a case in thn interior of Kel lucky, when a decision of the Ju Igo struck him so bad that ho rut a and said: There never was such a ruling as that since Pontius Pilato presided on the trial of Christ. Mr Clerk, responded the Judge, fine Mr Marshall $lO for contempt of court, I confess your Honor, continued Tom, that what I said was a liltl® hard on Pontius Pilate, but it is the first time in tho history of Ken tucky jurisprudence lhat il s held that to speak disresp.ctfullv of Pon tius Pilato is contempt of court.

That residence and the farm upon which it sat belonged to a Mr McLean. That gentleman owned and lived on a farm on Bull Run Creek at the beginning of the war. At bis residence Gen B nregnard established his headquarters and ou his farms fought most of the first battle of the war, ‘Bull Run,' To escape the perplexities of the army he moved to anew place n ar Ap. pomattox. Ou the morning of the ! surrender the last fight look place {on his uew farm. It may therefore Ibe said the first and last battle of j the bloodiest picture in the book | nf time was fought on his land, the first a triumph, the last the dowu i fall of the Confederacy.
