In the Tabor section last week j there was u serious difficulty bo- |( tween Garfield Grainger and John 1 Grainger, two brothers, and a son of the latter. The matter goes back to J a law suit over a piece of land belonging to Bruce Grainger who is ' now in the United States army. John Grainger claimed to have leas- { ed it from Bruce Grainger, and there is a dispute about the line between < this land and a tract conveyed to Gar field Grainger. John Grainger got i an injunction against Garfield Grainger and at the time Garfield \ Grainger had some beds in a house 1 on the disputed land, and after the order of injunction had been served in the case, he left the things there. Last week Garfield Grainger alleges that John Graniger went to breaking 1 up the beds with an axe and throwing the pieces over the fence into the woods. When Garfield Grainger protested against this a serious difficulty ensued and the son of John Grainger shot a bullet through the fleshy part of the thigh of Garfield Grainger inflicting a flesh wound fortunately. Warrants have been issued from the magistrate court as a result of this act and It .ill doubtless come up in court for settlement later on at the Septciabet te rm. o ( ASK POSITONKl). II. J.
