STORY FOR TO-DAY. 1 A Western Story. I — ¡ One day in July, while we wore oa the north fork of the Canadian River, and about twenty miles below Shawneetown, one of the horses in our team was bitten by a rattle- 'scake. I was driving, and I gaw the snake as it lifted itself from the grass and bit the horae twice on the Ie?. It was a hot day. the horses well heated up, and the poison took effect very soon. To make cur team whole one of us must take the other horse and ride off and make a purchase. I had been over the route before, and I knew that the nearest ranch was twelve miles up the riYer. It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and we were within half a mi!e of tHestr'am and in a wild and lonely district of country. We had with us in a tin box in the wagon over 4.0CO doMara in gold, and the misfortune to our horse naturally increased our anxieties. My partner insisted that I should be the one to remain with the wagon, and he had no sooner mo,-eù away than I began to make things secure. There was no use in expecting Paton, my partner, back before eight o'clock or later. He would doabtlesa nnd a suitable horse at, the nrst ranch, but the ranchman might be away, or there were a. dozen other reasons) to ca.11 for delay. We carried provisions with us, and at about six o'clock I built a Sre and pr(}pared my <,npper, and was about to begin eating when I caught sight of a horse and rider approaching camp from the north- west. The ground was open for three or four miles, and aa I had a glass with me I made out, white the horse was yet a mile and a half away, that he bore a woman on his back. Had she been a squaw the sight would not have occasioned surprise, but the iirst look proved that she was white, and that her horse was jaded and coming slowly. As I held the glass on her I saw her turn and look back, as one pursued, and long before she reaohed me I had become greatly interested in her case. She rode straight for the wagon, and when she unaUy came up her horse was very much blown, and the woman's face seemed to betray both hope and fear by turns. I was the nrst to speak, saying: "Well, are you in trouble?" "In great.trouble, sir,' she replied. "I have been living with my brother on a small ranch, about fifteen miles distant. Two hours ago a dozen drunken Kickapoo Indians visited the place, wounded my brother, and set nre to the house, and would have assaulted me had I not iied on this horse. They pursued me for several miles, and—I Here she broke down and began to cry and sob. What could I do but to aek her to dismount, give her my promise of protection, and say that when my partner returned we would drive straight to the ranch and sacrince our lives, if need be, to rescue her brother, and teach the Indians a lesson ? She did not come down without considerable palaver, seeming to be very sensitive about getting me into trouble, and when she did take a seat on the blankets prepared for her, she continued to cry and lament, and would not touch a mouthful of food. About half-past nine o'clock I heard the gallop of horses, and was ready to welcome my partner, but before they had come in sight the widow sprang up in. great terror, and cried out— Oh, sir, they are the Indians who 11:ne been on my trail Don't let them take me away Let me hide in the wagon "In with you quick, and they will have to kill me before they lay hands on you." I replied, and she disappeared beneath the cover with astonishing celerity. The gallop came nearer and near2r "nd nearer, and presently a voice hailed me— The camp thar—hello Who ia it ?" Friends." Come in." With that a half-breed and a Kickapoo came riding into camp on horses which had neither saddle nor blanket. Both men looked savage and sullen, and were well armed. The half-breed could speak very good English, and when he had come to a halt and looked round he said— We are after the woman who came into your camp a. couple of hours ago. I see her "By what authority do you demand her!" None of your business. We have come for her, and we mean to have her." "Do you mean that you will take her by force?" "I do: and let me give you a piece of advice. I see you are a. tenderfoot. Don't put on too many airs in this country; it's a great place to have one's wings clipped iu a. hurry. Dont attempt any foolishness with us, or you'll never know what hurt you." If the woman chooses to go with you, well and good," I answered as I looked the fellow over by the light of the camp nre. If she does not you cannot take her." "Oh, we can t, eh ? You crow loud for a spring chicken. Well, let the wench make a choice." The wagon was about ten paces from the Sre. and in the shadow, although not so much so that I could see it pretty plainly. I had made a, step toward it when I saw a. Mack object under the wheels, and supposing it to be a wolf, I raised my gun and took a snap shot, earing only to send a bullet near enough to drive it away. The object dis- appeared with the echoes of the report, and as I walked along to the wagon the two men, who had not ( amounted, accompanied me. Standing within nve feet of the vehicle, I called to the woman and asked if she desired to go with the men. and she replied— Ob, sir, save me from them, even if you have to shoot me." But you've got to come shouted the half-breed. "She shall not go!" I shouted at him. "I give you two villains sixty seconds in which to leave camp. Now go!" They were close together, and my ri9e covered both. They looked straight at me for nfteen or twenty seconds, and then turned and rode away into the darkness. I followed them for a hundred yards, when they urged their horses to a gallop, and rode to the north without looking back. When I returned to the &re the woman was beside it, her face betraying fear and distress, and aa soon as I came up, she cbsped her hands, and tearfully exclaimed— Oh, you will not let them take me away —you will not." I assured her that they had been driven ofF, and that she was safe, and her gratitude was unbounded. It was now ten o'clock and after, and Paton had not yet returned. It was useless to expect him until morning, and I set about preparing the camp for the night. As there was a strong probability that the two men driven oS would secure reinforcements and rctura during the night, I tied the horse to the wagoo, told the woman that she could occupy the vehicle, and prepared to spend the might on guard. By that tune I was very tired and sleepy. I dared not stretch out for a. regular sleep, knowing that the danger waa not yet passed, but I sat down on a knoll about 40 feet north of the wagon to nap a. little, knowing that any noise of account would instantly arouse me. It was, perhaps, a quarter of an hour before I actually fell asleep, and almost instantly I began to dream. I dreamed that I was tied to a. tree on the plains and that a rattlesnake was crawling towards me. The snake was coming to bite me. and I was helpless. Every movement of the reptile was as vivid as if the dream had been a. reality. and my mind wa. as ciea r as a bell. The serpent came very slowly, halting every two or three feet to rear its head and look about. and when it waa wittun ten feet i!s form changed. It was yet a serpent, but it had a. smaU brown hacd< and the hand clutched a. bulldog pistol pointed full at me, and I saw that the hammer was up. Vhizz went a shadow before my face. and then I saw behind me. The snake waa no longer in front, but creeping up in my rear, and yet I saw hitn as plainly as before. He came on slowly—cautiously—always a little nearer. When within three feet of my heels the pistol was raised to the back of my head, and I said to myself: So I am to be shot. It is a large bullet, and it will go clean through my head. I wonder why he didn t bite me If I was loose I would make a Scree light for my life." "Clugi' It was the sound of a pistol hammer striking on the centre of a cartridge —a cartridge which had failed to explode. lu the same second I was on my feet. A human figure stood before me. I gave my heavy r.ne a half sweep,and the Sgure sank down with a stiHed shriek. Then I was fully awake, and I bent over a stranger, to find it was the woman who should have been asleep in the wagon. She was uncon- scious. but clutched nrmly in her right hand was a bulldog pistol. I wrenched it away and carried her to the embers of the fire. and wheu I had secured a blaze I saw that I had struck her on the head and given her a bad hurt. I examined the pistol, and when I found that the cartridge had been tried by the hammer, it did not take me long to unravel the plot against my life. I bound the woman baud aúd foot, and then kept vUigant watch until daybreak. She recovered consciousness long enough before this, but the only aid I extended was to loosen her hands and place a dish of water beside her. She did not, address me, and I had no word for her. When day broke there was another surprise for me. A Kickapoo Indian lay dead under the wagon, shat through the heart. It was a great mystery to me. but the woman was ready to clear it up. I untied her, washed the blood oil her face and head, and then she gave the whole plot away. Paton had been made a prisoner by a gang of outlaws in order that I might be robbed. These men knew of the tin box in the wagon. The woman had been sent into camp with the story she told knowing that she would get into the wagon. The two men came to distract my attention, and the Kickapoo crept up to receive the box. The woman couldn't Had it, and I mistook the Indian for a wolf and killed him. Then the woman concluded that I had the money on me, and while I napped she crept up to shoot me and secure it. She told the particulars as coolly as I related them to you. and when she had finished she asked what I was going to do about it. Paton had by that time returned, having raised such a row that his captors feared to detain him longer, and he answered the question by picking up a rope and starting for the nearest tree. This broke the woman down, and she begged and pleaded so abjectly that we left her free to go where she would when we drove on. To have taken her to Ockmulgee. Kickapoo, or any other town as a prisoner, would have been to cause us great delay and inconvenience, and it was some consolation to know that the blow I gave her caused a wound from which she would not recover for many days. She was penitent enough as we drove away, but six weeks later was killed with her husband, a ha-lf-brecd, while stealing stock from the Creek Indians. I

MR. EVAN0 ROBERTSI STILL CONFINED TO HIS ROOM. Newcastie Em!yn Congregation I Disappomted Mr. Evan Roberts w;M confrned to his room at Newcastle Ernlyn nearly the whole of Sun- day. and was unable to say wbcthpr be would hold a, meeting at Bethel in the evening. Nevertheless, people flocked ea.r)y in the a.fter- nooa into the town by conveyances from '-il.r- cJigan, Ciigerra-n. LIandyssul. &c<l other places for miips around. Bethel Methodist Chapel waa almost filled soon after three o'clock, and the doors had to be locked..A large crowd congregated outside, while those inside were singing revival hymns. inter- spersed with prayers. A few minutes before five o'clock again the doors were thrown open and the Kpacioua edincp w)8 quickly Sllod, I while scores were outaide unable to ga.in admittance. Remarkable scenes of enthusiasm and I emotion were displayed. and there was hardly a break in the sinking and praying. Fervent prayers were offered on behalf of the evan- gelist. "Milwyr fydduwn lesn, ym)aen, ymlaen. a. chwi" was sta.rted by a, young man a.nd waa sung with 'enthusiasm. At 6.16 the lady c7:Mis;elists arrived, and it wa.s with the greate&-t difnculty that they Micoeeded in wending th<'ir way thronshtttepf-cked crowds. Afterwards a ma.n announced iu the lobby that Mr. Roberts would not attend the meet- ing, and ?reat disappointment was felt. As the congregation showed signs of leaving the edifice, a middle-aged nM,n in a. ausnt address implored them to stay. This was followed by an earnest appeal by Misa Roberta, the evan- gelist's sister, to obey the dictates of the Spirit. Fervent supplications were then to be heard from all parta of the chapel simultaneously. One Englishman praying for his brothers and sisters completely broke down. In the meantime the crowd had assembled outside the Rev. Evan Phillips's residence, but there was no response from Mr. Roberts. Shortly afterwards Mr. Pbillipa appeared on behalf of the evangeHst, and said that Mr. Roberts could not address them that even- ing'. Th'a rneftin.- at Bethel Chapel was tested by Mr. Evans, a student at the Ernlyn Grammar School. All confessed with the exception of one young man from the neigh- bourhood of Cardigan. Miss Annie Da vies went to him and prayed that he should be saved. Miss Roberts asked all the congrega- tion .to pray for him, and after the expira- tion of about half-an-hour The young man accepted con version. Pressing invitations by letter and telegram are being received by the evangelist to go to Liverpool, and he is showing signs of yield- ing, and proceeding there at an early date. Messrs. Dan Roberts and Sydney Evans Mr. Sydney Evans is taking a rest au Han- over, and is feeling much better. He will probably resume his work Sunday, March 26. Mr. Dan Roberts, though much stronger now than when be opened his mission at Ynys- hir, is going home for a few days' rest. Incidents at Abergavenny I As a result of the visit of Messrs.

I ATTACKED BY A MONKEY "How would you like this for a baby?" said Mrs. Skipp to Mrs. Chapman, opening her shawl, whereupon a large monkey sprang at the latter lady, clawing her neck, destroying her bonnet and damaging her cape. Caroline Skipp. being charged at Clerken- wcll with having "unlawfully set on or urged a certain animal to attack or put the com-1 plainant in fear," stated that she was the mother of twelve, and her husband kt'pt the monkey as a pet.

I PtNK EYE OUTBREAK AT ETON Pink eye, or conjunctitis ophthalmia, now prevalent at Eton College, was almost un- known amongst human belnga until recently. It is, of course, quite common in horses, and will sometimes cause great ravages amongst them. Pink eye is really a kind of influenza of the eye. As soon as the patient is attacked the eyes become inflamed and irritate greatly, similar to the Australian sandy blight." The disease broke out in one of the college houses about a month ago, and soon many of the students were laid up. As the infec- tion spread rapidly it was found necessary to isolate the boys. The attack lasts from two to fourteen days, and, as one student observed, It's beastly if you want to take part in some sports, but topping as a respite from lessons." Many football and othsr events have had to be cancelled.

CHtLD'S BODY FOUND IN A TRAIN Whilst cleaning a train in the sidings at King's Norton on Saturday afternoon a rail- way servant discovered under the seat of a nrst-claaa compartment- the body of a newly- born female child.

The carriage in which the body was found formed part of the 6.30 train from Birmingham to King's Norton on Friday night, and bad remained in the siding since. The body was handed over to the police.

REVIVAL MOVEMENT I ————— ————— FRENCH AND SWISS VISITORS I IN THE RHONDDA. I An "Intepnational" Service He!d at Ton. Considerable interest was taken in Ponty- pridd and the Rhondda. on Sunday in ser- vices which were held in the morning a.t Pontypridd, and in the evening at Ton Pontre, owing mainly to the presence of a. deputation <yf well-known ladies and gentle- men from France and Switzerland. In the morning the party, conducted by "Awstin," visited Temple Enr,lish Ba-p.ti.st Cha-pei. where a; revival service was being conducted by the pastor (the Rev. F. J. Gurston\ assisted, by Mr. Clement Palser, of London The visitors were keenly interested m the English aspect of the revival, and at the etoae a bnef English address was delivered by Paetor Emerie, of Neuchatel, Switzer- land. Subsequently the party went to see a- Welsh Sunday School at Peauel Calvinistic Methodist Cha.Twl and Sardis "'ebh Congre- gational Chapel. At the nrst-named place they were received by Alderman Richard rwig, J.P., and conducted to the school. where the methods of the Welsh Sunday School were explained to them. They subsequently visited the infante' depart- ment of the school. and were there received by Mrs. Lewis, the wife of the pastor. MdUe. D'Aubigne, of Geneva. delivered a. brief addreas, and the several members of the party, after hearing the Weigh f-inging. sang themselves a. Preach hymn. They afterwards, accompanied again by "Awstin." visited 8a.rdis Sunday School, where they were received by the superinten- dent (Mr. W. Daviee) and Mr. George Williams. Here, also, brief addresses were delivered in Engli8h by Mr. Pinkerton. of Pa.ns, and Pastor Emerie. and a French address by the secre- tary of the Continental Sunday Observance oociety, his remarks being interpreted into English by Pastor Emerie. The Rev. Mr. Breckenridge, of Glasgow, also spoke. The visitors manifested very great interest in the methods of the Welsh Sunday School, and were particularly struck, as Mdlle. D'Aubigne afterwards declared, with the fact that- not only were children present, but that their fathers and mothers, grandfathers and grandmothers were also there. In the evening what may be described as an international revival service was conducted by Awstin" at Hebron Welsh Baptist Chapel, Ton. The earlier portion of the service was almost exclusively in Welsh, and the visitors were able to gee the Welsh aspect of the revival, which they have come over to this country to witness, and they hope to take away with them some of the nre of the revival to their own country. Awstin" was assisted by the Bev. B. Davies (Perth) and Miss 0. A. Jones and Miss Edith Jones, both well known revival singers. Testimonies were given by scores, mainly in Welsh, and the prayers were numerous and fervent. An English address waa delivered by Pastor Emerie, describing the yearning of Switzerland for the biasing of the revival, and Mr. Pinkerton described how there had been a movement already .affected in Paris by the four ministers who recently visited Pontypridd and Nantymoel. Mdlle. D'Aubigne next spoke, and it will be interesting to state that 8he is the daughter of M. Merle D'Aubigne, historian of the Pro- t'esta.nt Reformation in Europe, and that her mother was an Irishwoman, who was the founder of the nrst Sunday School in Geneva. Mdlle. D'Aubigne in her address dwelt espe- cially on religion and irreligion among the miners of Belgium. Prayers were offered for the spread of the revival to Fra-nee. Switzer- land, Scotland, &nd. indeed, the whole world. Among others who gave a. very cordial wel- come to the visitors at Ton may be men- tioned Mr. Ben Davies, miners' agent, and Mrs. Da,vies. The visitors will remain for some time. They are a.ccompan;ed by several others eent over on behalf of the I Churches and Christian akwociationsinfrauce and Switzerland in order to see the revival.

ST. PATR!CK'S MEMORY. Michael ullha.n, a genial personage who figured on Sa-turday at Marylebone Police- court. might, as a patriotic Irishman. hare felt aggrieved a.t the magisterial suggestion that he oou!d possibly forget St. Patrick's Da.y, but as his good memory cleared him from a penalty for too loyally celebrating the day he overlooked another injustice." "WeU. I supple you aje Irish?" said Mr. Plowden. The accused, treating the question as super- Suous, replied, Ah, and I met some friends I hadn't seen for a long time." Do you know what it was yesterday?" "St. Patrick's Day, to be sure." I ooly wanted to know if you remembered it. Now go awa-y til! next yea-r." In another case where a, man and his wife were charged with drunkenness, the lady ,loud!y proclaimed that she was Irish. Mr. Ptowden: I suppose you got drunk beca,uso you were Irish, and your husband because he wasn't? Go away this time. St. Patrick is beoommg a cosmopolitan sort of ba-int, for a number of young Englishmen who shouted Hooroo and otherwise created "diversions" in Piccadilly were nned 10s. 6d. each.

The last. time the schoolmis- tress was organist she played a wrong Psalm and was the only person who knew what to sing. while on several occasions she played "Amens" in the wrong places. l Boarded Up the Windows The windows of the cottage opposite the old school-house, which Miss Aspinall now occupies, have been boarded up. avowing little or no light to enter. There is about two inches at the top, through which she watches the rustics' antics. The latest trick of the villagers has been dropping a brick down the chimney. Unfor- tunately the schoolmistress had a saucepan on. the nre at the time, containing meat and potatoes for her dinner. The brick knocked the saucepan Hying, the meat fell among the ashes, and the potatoes were scattered in all directions. In spite of this she says the vil- lagers are only tn love with her. The school managers have carted the school coal away, but the wary schoolmis- tress got scent of their intentions, and laid in a good stock in her cottage, which Colonel Vere Wright has allowed her to have for a few shilling? weekly rental. On Sunday Miss Aspinall gladly con- F,ented to be photograpned, and she declares her intention of retaining the school keys until the ejectment comes into operation. Mrs. West, the new schoolmistress, has; obtained a duplicate ,key for the schoolroom, and commenced teaching the children to-day.. The ejectment orGer was missing from the schoolbouse door yesterday morning.

TWO GOOD STORIES. I Among the best of many good things in a lecture delivered by Dr. Macnamara, M.P., to the London district of the Institute of Journalists on Saturday were the following anecdotes :— On one occasion he was to address a con- versazione of a South London teachers' asso- ciation. On his arrival, not more late than usual, he found the doorway thronged with people. Just in front of him was a young lady leaning on the arm of a fine young fellow, and he could not help overhearing their conversation as he pushed his way into the meeting. Whose going to speak?" asked the young lady. Oh," replied the young man, "it's Macna- mara; he is going to talk about the school board." Let's go back to ome of the dark class- rooms," waa tJhe coaling reply of the young lady. It was said the old London vestries some- times conducted their business in a festive fashion, but they hardly came up to the pro- ceedings of an Irish board, where, according ¡..to one member, long before the meeting was over the clerk was drinking the ink and sign- ing the cheques with whisky.

I FOUR DAYS IN A CAVE I .Reginald Linnekcr, a mining student, nine- teen years of age, left his home at Creswell a week ago to attend mining classes at Shefneld. He did not return at ni?ht. and two days later his parents received a letter saying that he was about to disappear, and would never be discovered except by the merest chance. The boy's father instituted a search in the neighbourhood of Shenield. but for several days he was unsuccessful. Eventually, the lad was found in a cave. prostrate with star- vation. He said he had lived there for four days without food. It is supposed that close study ha.d affected his brain.

j k)LLED BY FALLING HOUSE James Gallahpr, aged thirteen, was killed. and two other lads injured, by the collapse of an empty house at Ranley on Saturday. The lads were playing near a block of con- demned houses recently sold for .510 each, when the roof of one collapsed. Two of the boys were buried in the debris, and the third was struck by a piece of the falling masonry. The bodies were soon recovered, but it was found that Gallaher had been killed. His companion waa badly hurt about the head.

I EMtGRANTS MUTtNY IN PORT I According to a telegram from St. Michael, Azores, to the Exchange Telegraph Company, the steamer Montreal is delayed there under extraordinary circumstances. She bad on board 900 emigrants from New York, but owing to bad weather put into St. Michael, to obtain further provisions. The emigrants, however, prevented the vessel leaving port. The steamer Lafayette has been armed and sent to take the emi- grants from the Montreal.

I THREE PEOPLE FALL DEAD I On his way to Market at Cowea on Satur. day an elderly man fell dead while telling a. friend about a. political meeting which he had attended the evening before. While pushing her bicycle up an incline at Christchurch yesterday. Mrs. Leonard Peck, of Boscombe, fell and died. As Harry Collins, a. sta,Mema,n, was waJk- ing towards his bunk at the Salvation Army shelter in Ldsson-grove. London, he fell, and when picked up was dead.

I TWO FONTS FOR FARMERS I l.—To keep the flocks <md herds of the country free from disease. 2.—To stop adulteration.. These are the two things in which fanners aje specially interested, said the Hon. Ailwyn Fellowes, the r.ew President of the Board of Agriculture, at Peterborong-h on ,qa,turda,y. He promised to devote his atten- tion to them, and to so about the country in order to leajn the exact needa of agricul- turists.

LOST IN THE FORESTI STRUGGLE FOR A CAPE FOUNDLING. The Attorney-Genera,! of Cape Colony, the Ron. Victor Sa/mpson, has just had to decide a sad and singular claim. In 1902 a European family, named Ka.pp, living in the Yknysna. district, one of the poorest ac d wildest parts of the country, lost a little boy, aged about seven years. Some months ago a boy was found in one of the vast forests of the district. His description answered generally to that of the lost child, and Mr. and Mrs. Kapp picked him out from a number of children. But a local Kamr, named Jan Zulu. also claimed him, a.nd. when it was pointed out to him that the child was white, he said the boy was the illegitimate oS'sprin? of his daughter by a white man in the district. This claim was inquired into by three local resident magistrates, and afterwards the case was sent to the Attorney-General, who has decided in favour of the black man. The body of another boy has been found in the district, washed up on the sea coast, which is terribly cruel thereabouts. The body is bartered beyond recognition, but the Kapps say that the clothes are not those which their son wore. There the mystery remains.

"P!Q8 IN CLOVER." I Latest Extravagance of U.S.' Society. During a. masquerade ball at the fashion- able Union Club, in St. Louis (says the "New York Times ") a drove of little pink pigs was turned loose. At nrst there was some excite- ments as the pigs squealed. Finally the women became somewhat accustomed to the spectacle of the pigs in a ballroom, and the little animals became so uncomfortable and out of place on the slippery noor of the room that they were affectionately petted by perfumed hands and jewelled lingers. The pigs romped about everywhere, tripping up dancers when they were not in the arms of some young woman or other. The pigs were not the only novelty. Six big Injuns" danced in single file about the room, emitting shrill war whoops. The committee of entertainments, dressed as rubes," furnished to all the guests confetti. Another feature was an animal circus. Maskers representing every animal gave an exhibition of trained animal. performances. Bears operated typewriters, dogs talked, and roosters worked, while horses outdid Jim Key.

A HAWAHAN tDOL Seized for the Hono!u!u Zoo I A brute between a, zebra and a jackass is the god which is worshipped by the, natives in the mountains of Hualalai, Ha.wa.ii, according to mail advices from Honolulu. The creature has the dark-grey body of the burro and the atripes of the zebra. Chester Doyle, Official Interpreter at Hono- lulu, and Charles Shillingwortb, High Sheriif, entered a cave set apart for the wor- ship of the beast god. Native priests tried to nght them back with spears, but a dis- charge of firearms by the white men frightened the natives into retreat. The beast was captured by the white men and was taken by them to Honolulu, where it was placed in the zoological gardens. The cave in which it was worshipped is described by the men as being like an ancient temple. Spears and rare tapas were suspended from the walls, while an altar of stone was at one end. In front of the altar was a bed for the zebrula. evidently made by human hands. The god had been regarded with superstitious awe by the natives, who had never seen so curious a creature before, and decided that it had been sent to them as a god.

PASTOR'S CLAiM FOR SALARY The county-court juctg.e for Suffolk heard a peculiar case at JIa,dleigh, near Ipswich, on Saturday, when the Rev. George Wallaoa Moriey, pastor of the Baptist chapel of that town, claimed from 'his deacons the sum of JEZ4 139. 8d. Plaintiff was appointed pastor of the Bap- tist obapel a't Hadleigh, at a, sa.!a.ry of 25a. per week, and subject to three months' notice. The agreement was signed by the defendants. Su.bs-9<iuently considerabte tHs&ension ajose between plaintiff a,nd some of the congrega- tion, and there were 5ome unpleasant scenes. Ultimately plaintiff v.-as caviled upon to reaign. He reused, contending that there was not a majority of the congregation who desrrpd his resignation. He afterwards re- oeived three mouths' notice. The ba.la.nce now claimed was for sa.la.ry due, but there were no chapel funds to pay it. Defendants denied that they were person- ally reaponsiblo, and the judge, upholdm? this view, gave judgment for defendants with costs, but stayed execution for a fortnight upon notice of a-ppeal.
