In writing up the 'Bailey case last
weeic we unintentionally wronged a
prominent-citizen of this county by
saying that he had been subpoenaed
as a witness but had failed to appear.
Investigation shows that Mr. Ladely
was a witness in the preliminary trial
but not in the last one. It is always
onr intention to get the news right ,
but in this case our informant , who is
thoroughly reliable , was mistaken.
Under the heading''Church Notes , "
the Stuart Ledger saj-s : "We see by
the Valentine papers that Clarence
Sageser has been installed as leader
of a ladies' brass band at that place.
Clarence understands music quite
well , but we predict that his knowl
edge will avail him naught in his
present situation. Just wait till the
"green-eyed monster" begins to get
in its work in that band.and Clarence
will have more business on his hands
than he ever dreamed of.5
