Prominent Citizen Charged With Trifling • With A Widow's Affections. For some time, it is alleged, one of our prominent citizens has paid more or le ss attention to a young and beautiful widow of this town, forgetting or at least not heeding the advice of the •im- mortal Mr. Weller to his son Samuel to "beware of the vidders. He now claims that he was not serious in his intentions and t she was not attached to him, and as he seems to have lost interest in he matter she has attached his prope y, which is a form of attachment th he does not enjoy. The result is, at he finds himself defendant in a first class Breach of Promise Ca d his questionable atti- tude toward the widow will be given an airing in he near future. The parties in the case are so prom- inent that it is feared 110 court room will hold the vast crowd desirous of at- tending the trial, so it will be held in the Town Hall, on Thursday evening, March 13th, under the auspices of Lord Charles Beresford's Troop Canadian Boy Scouts, for whose benefit the proceed will be devoted. In other words, it will be a Mock Court Trial, and it promises to be one of the.most enjoyable affairs of many years, as a large number of our leading people will participate in the proceed- mThe committee having the trial in charge have engaged Col. A. V. New- ton, the well-known lawyer -lecturer of Worcestor, Mass. to attend to the de- tails and personally conduct the enter- tainment. Col. Newton has had remarkable suc- cess in conducting similar entertain- mente and without doubt the Breath of Promise Trial will be here, as elsewhere an event long to be remember with plea- sure.
