nounced that he would not testify, and practically detled the court. The court
thereupon announced mat it would take the matter under advisement.
This would not be so serious if the sam? performance had not been so suc
cessfully engaged in ? few weeks ago. The sfiue witness refused to testify,
defied the court and was sentenced to an indefinite period in jail. In jail he en
joyed a wide rings of liberty and priv!leg**, and after a few weeks of nominal
confinement was released.

BI.ENNERHASSET ISLAND
| The appeal made by J. >1. Hickman
In ilio .School Journal anil TMucntor that
the state of West Viri;ini:i. sbollfd oven
I Bletinerba^set Island and ete''t some
suitable memorial to its importance in
the early history of the state should
not be ignored. \s .Mr. Hiekinttn say*.
Hlctini rh.isset Island is the outstnnd
( in^ spot ,n the romantic story of West
Virginia's early settlement. It was the
home of Herman Hlennerhitssot and his
wife, who was also his own niece. They
' had eloped from Ktigland and estab

country surrounding was yet a wi 1'.wi

tails of which are fresh in the minds,
?of every scho.d child. Iilenn?-rhasset
Island Is filled with historic interest and
romantic legends, vet it lies in the Ohio
river practically unnoticed. The stale

causes than buying this islanil and
erecting a memorial fitting to lis im
portance |n the state's early history.
it is reported that the nation's larg

"The origin nf the custom of granting
the freedom of the ?? 1 t^y" to aliens is \ 1 r

The early Hutch settlers of N'ew Am

"freedom of the city was provided for
