Mrs. Htekey's evidence was read next and she said that when the rifle went off it was pressed against her head, and on the next morning when the man left home he told her and the rest to prepare for "'to- night," as he was coming home to murder them all. That day the wife walked twelve miles to Clarendon to see the constable. Mr. Rigney said things were in bad shape and it was diflienlt to say any- thing in justification of such action, but 'they were present to mete out punishment to stop such things. 'It 'seemed that the prisoner has been a drinking man," said Mr. Rigney, "and il his character is as the evi- dence shows, he should have been brought up before." "He had been on a bad spree, and the question is whe- ther the accused and his family will benefit by his being locked up or whe- .| house, North A hon to please every purse. ther he has got cnough."

The judgo then left the court room with the family to sco what he would do about tho prisoner, or if they wanted him back. One son and one daughter were willing to have him home, but the wife would not agree. . "TI have done everything to im- prove your condition, that Iipossibly could," said the judge in sentencing the prisoner.
