A trial of some Impor anee to school teach
ers, directors, pupils and parents, took place
before Esquire YOUNG yesterday. M. E.
ELLIOTT, of Home, was employed to teach
the Pail Factory school, in North Towanda |
township, the past winter. Among the pupils
was a H years old son of Jon X BKNNP.IT.
A few weeks ago, just before the end of tlie
term, the teacher punished young"BKXNKI T
severely; indeed it was alleged by the hoy, j
and other scholars, that he was bandit d very
roughly—that he was thrown upon the floor j
and brutally kicked. Mr. ELLIOTT admitted j
tho punishing, but denied that the chastise-i
nient was unreasonably severe. The father j
of the boy caused the arrest of I'LI.IOTT for j
assault and battery, and the defendant elected j
to be tried by a justice jury. The following i
named genilemon were selected: Judge Urs
-Bix, T. C. DF.LANO, S. M. LAPOUTI:, IUA B.
HUMPIIKKY, IIAUUY GUAY, and J. P. VAN
FLI:I:T.
Gen. M AIHI.L appeared as counsel for EL
LIOTT, and S. W. Lin LI: for Buxxirrr.
A large number of witnesses were examin
ed, and the ease was ably argued by the legal
gentlemen.
The jury returned a verdict of not guilty, I
but ili fondant to pay the costs.
MAUY Km I n WAKD died in Wysox, on
Friday last. The Klmira Free ] } reas prints
this sketch of the young lady's life:
"Miss Ward was the daughter of J. Osborn
Ward, of Brookli n. X. Y., a grand-daughter of
Samuel Owen, of Wysifx, at whose residence
she died, having been removed thither from
her home in Brooklyn about two weeks before
her death. It was hoped by friend* that the
change of air would bring temporary relief
at least, and perhaps permanent reovery; but
the disease (catarrhal consumption) under
which she had languished for nearly six
months, had taken too deep a hold upon her.
She sank from day to day, and at 12 o'clock
on Fiiday quietly passed away.
Miss Ward was well knowii and appreciat
ed bv a large circle of personal friends, both
in Brooklyn and in Wvso.x, to whom she
was endeared by her traits of genial frank
ness, sincerity and her warm-hearted devotion
to those whom she loved. Nor was she un
known to that large circle vaguely known as
the reading public. She had marked out for
herself a literary career, and her education
was directed to that end. Notwithstanding
many and serious interruptions by illness,
had made a fair beginning as a writer, and
her racy articles of local description, character
sketches, and short stories have elicited
favorable notice and nppreciateive comment,
as indicating gifts of more than ordinary
promise, ami have even been widely copied by
i other periodicals than those in which they
originally appeared. To this work she
brought an enthusiastic nature, quick aiul
dear insight, am! a keen sense of humor,
which, adkliled to a natural ft rtility in the
resources of racy expression, form a combin
ation in kind not unlike those which have
made "Oil" Summer*' and "Earnest Trifler*'
famous. Very many beyond the circle of
mourning friends will profoundly regret that
the career of "Kitty Conway" has been cut
oil" at its very beginning.
The engine at the nail mill broke
down on Saturday, and the establishment
will be Idle for several days—until the damage
can be rapairv d.
The officers of Bradford Encampment will
be installed at the regular meeting this e\eu
ieg by District Deputy KOCKWKI.L.
The students of tlic Graded School will give
a public entertainment at Mereur Hall on
Eriday evening, April 2. The exercises will
consist of dialogues, declamations, music, Ac.
As every one is intcreefod in the school, there
will undoubtedly be a largo attendance.
Tickets will lie issued to-morrow, and offered
for sale by the scholars. Encourage them by
purchasing enough for your family. The
proceeds will be. appropriated to the library
fund.
