No. 1774—Mary Lindsay vs. John F. Lindsay. Suit for the possession of real estate. This case was tried a year and a half ago before Judge Hanna, and ever since that time a motion for a new trial has been pending. The motion was overruled, whereupon the plaintiff prayed an appeal to the Supreme Court, which was granted.

No. 318—Amor Abden vs. Clarissa Daniels and John Daniels. Cause dismissed by agreement of parties, each to pay the costs made by them respectively.

No. 734—State vs. Mary Madigan. Information for selling intoxicating liquor to a minor, one Warren Watts, the information being found under the Baxter Liquor Law. The defendant pleaded guilty on which the court assessed a fine of $10.

Lorenzo D. Pelton vs. W. W. Gold, wife and son. This is an action by plaintiffs to set aside, as fraudulent, a conveyance of real estate by Gold and wife to their son. The case came here from Franklin county, on change of venue. The trial began before a jury on Wednesday of last week, and continued until Tuesday evening, a night session being held to hear the conclusion of the argument. We will give the result next week.

P. S. During the progress of the trial, Mr. Barrow, one of the plaintiffs died at Harrison, O., of lung fever.

AURORA SEWING SCHOOL.
Organization of an Important Benevolent Enterprise.

Last Saturday afternoon quite a number of ladies, in response to an invitation given last week, met and organized under the auspices of the Y.M.C.A., a Sewing Society, for the benefit of the Mission Sabbath School. The object of this society is to learn little girls how to cut and make their own garments. The scholars will be allowed to keep each garment they make. When they can furnish their own material they will be expected to do so, but for those in destitute circumstances an effort will be made to support their wants. The school will meet every Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock. In order that the enterprise may be made a success it must have friends among the business men of the city and it is to be hoped that all will enter heartily into this work. Donations of half worn clothing, calicoes, muslins or money, may be handed to the Receiving Committee or to Mr. J. N. Milburn, Chairman of the Association Relief Committee. The following persons were elected officers of the society.

President—Mrs. H. C. Taylor.
Vice Presidents—Mrs. Freeman and Mrs. Mary Stratton.
Secretary—Miss L. Bush.
Assistant Secretary—Miss Jennie Stafford.
Treasurer—Miss Mary Clark.
Soliciting Committee—Mrs. Belle Murphy, Miss Mary Trester, Mrs. Louden, Miss Lucy Stedman.
