The lasted nearly two weeks, jury was drawn from a vmii of^20O men from Union county. Sunday that jury returned a ver*| diet of Not Guilty. A majority] of peopie'believe that C(fie didn't] get justice. Ormond and Mine Elizabeth Cole, a daughter of W. B. Cole, had been sweethearts, and the father objected to the match, but had said nothing until after the daughter bad informed her father that she bad broken with Ormond because of defects she had discovered. When Ormond persisted in bis attentions. Cole both spoke to him and wrote to him asking him to desist Letters conveying threats passed both ways, and in one a slander of Miss Cole Was conveyed. Through bis attorney Cole had Ormond to sign an agreement to play quits. He lived up to this agreement, except he came to Rockingham occasionally and seemed to Have acted challengiugly toward Csie. Pleas of temporary insanity and seifdefense were offered by the defense, but we believe that jury acted on the unwritten law. No other trial in this state baa ever attracted so much attention. The newspapers have been filled with accounts of it, and every - one every day in every mention played on the "wealthy manu facturer'’ string. Why, do^ not know. But they ov^rdi^thaA ^ we think.

It is hoped that the men responsible for the mischief will be made to answer for their acts, and that the way of the crook will be made harder in this state in the future. —Laurin- burg Exchange. n ^YT^ut they cmioi it ' is No midway nor gambling:.
