The LaGrange Standard says: “A case that is apt to be interesting and possibly hotly contested is the one involving a suit for damages filed by Mr. and Mrs. George L. King of Ligonier against Dr. J. C. Fleming of that city. The matter which was carried over from the November term after being venueed to this county from Goshen has to do with the claim of Mr. and Mrs. King that the health of their daughter was seriously impaired foldowing an operation performed by Dr. Fleming in 1916.” 3 The case is set down for trial next Monday.

To Do More Time. President Coolidge has informed the friends of Gov. McCray that if he is to be pardoned, his petition must contain a plea of ill health, There has been a good deal of news in circulation for the past few months to the effect that McCray had to give up the apartments. He suffered a second forthe reason that his health was badly broken, and it is surprising that this was not mentioned in the petition for pardon. It is evident that Coolidge feels that the prisoner has not yet been punished sufficiently for the crimes he has ¢ommitted and unless it can be made certain that his health is being badly undermined he will have to remain in Atlanta some time S 0 far as Coolidge is concerned. :
