The attentiou of Judge N. L. Hutch
ins, who arrived in the eity on Friday,
was taken up all yesterday in bearing
argument in the case of Ballame & Sor
rels et al vs. Hirschfield A Blumethal.
Quite an array of legal talent was on
hand and the argument was very able
on all bands The arguments were de-
lired in the office of Messrs. Barrow A
Thomas beginning at ten o’clock and
lasting most of the day. The question
for decision is the the matter of ap
pointing a receiver to administer the
business. It will be remembered that
Hir8hfteld & Blumenthal were closed
out a few weeks ago upon a mortgage
held by H. B. Challin & Co.
The plaintiffs in the case allege fraud

Augusta, for Dunham, Bucklen & Co.
The plaintiff’s attorneys were Messrs.

d’ew J. Cobb <& T. W. Reed, The de
cision of Jade Hntchius in the case was

this was the kind of love that brought
a happy young couple to Athens yes
terday about 2 o’clock to have the
•ilkes knot tied up.
A happy couple! Forsooth their
hearts wore fairly oveiflowing with
fond passions of love, mingled with a
spirit of gratification and delight and
their unalloyed bliss was uns- eakable.
They were first seen drivin g hurriedly
down Broad street, and something in
their hasty manner of procedure ex-
cited tlie interest of a large crowd Of
citizens who assembled on the sidewalk
In front of Chns. Stern A Co.’s store.
The young people alighted from the
buggy at this p ace and tripped liihtly
up tne stairway into Dr. Lowry’s of
fice where they awaited the arrival of
Mr. Bose Mathews, tlie groom's best
man, who had gone for Cap*. D Cran
Oliver to officiate at the solemn cere-
moid.-s calculated to make them man
and tvifo. Tliia waa not long.
When Copt. Oliver appeared, all oat
of breath from his hurry, the couple
took their places on tlie floor and in ode
brief moment were prouounccd one aud
inseparable.
WHO THEY ARK.
The groom ia Mr. John C. Morris, a
promising yonug man about twenty-
one or two years old, who lives about
six miles from Athens in Madison coun
ty-
The bride is Miss Texie C. Phillips, a
daughter of Mr. W. F. Phillips, one of
Madison county’s most estimable citi
zens. Tlie br.de is only fourteen years
old and for tuis reason was forbidden to
marry Mr. Morris by her parents.
The manner of her elopement was
told a Baxnkk reporter by Mr. Bose
Mathews, who acted as be«t man. He
summoned tho bride to meet him at the
orchard gate where he had a buggy
awaiting her. Her father being off at
tending court she easily escaped his
uspal watchfulness and met Mr. Math
ews, who carried her to Mr. Morris.
The three drove hurriedly to Athens
and proceeded as just told.
