beating hini severely. Then the boy
picked up ii stick to defend himself
with—just as he had 11 right to do, in
school or out—and then a scuttle ensued, wherein the boy wns roughly
handled. At sometime iu the melee,
the boy's eye was blackened, and bis
throat scratched. The school was
broken up of course. The verdict
was a just one. Air, Pencil was ably
defended by Messrs. Perry, of Clare,
Cummins, of Farwell, and Trumbull,
of Evart. Prosecuting Attorney Casterlin, und J. 15. Judkins, of Osceola,

The defense immediately moved
for a new trial, with a prospect of getting it. We regard this case as unfortunate in every particular, und as
wrong op the part of every one of thc
principals—the boy, the teacher, and
tlie boy's father. It has resulted in a
costly litigation, and from the peculiar position of the contestants, the
teacher, even if he wins, must suger

tho wrong is with the State. The
State never ought to give any teacher

iug account ofthe organization ofthe
society.
The society was organized ns long
ago ns the spring of IH72, and was
made part of the Farwell circuit. A^
no records were kept until within
two years inst past, it is difficult to
ascertain wbo were the original ioem«
bers. As far as can be learned the
first members were the fnmily of John
Uaker, Mrs. Hubcn Smith, Mr. and
Mrs. Harvey Itoorn, nnd Mrs. G. K.
Tucker. They met nt the residence
of G. W. Hoorn, and at tlie little
building now used by Mr, Hubcn
Smith as an office, whore also was
organized the first Union Sunday
School, by Hev. L. Piper, still .1 resident of Ciare. Itev. Mr. Keilly was
the first pastor. Next came Hev. Mr.
Cogshnll, in '72 and '"il, followed by
Hev. Mr. Flomniing, in '73 ancl '74.
Rev. Geo. Donaldson came in Sept.
1H71, nnd was the first resident minister, staying two years, when he was
succeeded by Hev. J. F. McKinley,
and him by Itev. AV. II. Ware, the
present pastor. Hev. McKinley found
the charge poor and small, but built
it up to usefulness f.nd prosporlty, being aided therein by able workers
and fervent christians.
Tho first record dates from the
spring of 1877, when J. C. Hockafollow, «. W. Jetreries, Goo. F. Holbrook, J. W. Calkins, E. ITnicum, E.
II, Bradley and John Past-wore olcct-
ed a board of trustees, with Mr. Holbrook as chairman, Mr. JefTeries, secretary, and Mr. Koekafcllow, treasurer. The trustee* elected tbo first
