j cept a second degree plea.
The Court directed Rev. Cronenwett
; who was in Court to engage Mrs. Mil
j ler in conversation and find out if she
1 knew where she was and what her att'ys
proposed doing. She knew well enough
and protested some, but signed the plea,
and after some more dickering the
Court fixed her term at twelve years,
and the Sheriff took hei to the pen, that
| evening. She was gentle as a lamb go
[ ing down and asked the Sheriff t
plead for a rocking chair for her. whie
' he did.
Forquer was feeling good after the
affair was over, he was the only mar
concerned that got a "'puff" out of it.
