Eighteenth Year - Number 30
Marlin, Texas, Wednesday, September 4, 1907

     Monroe Brady, a negro living in the bottom, is in the toils of the law on a charge of whipping his wife.  The woman alleges that the negro beat her with a china pole.  When arrested, Brady was taking it easy, sitting under a big umbrella while the women folks were doing the work.
