Winder Discharged in Demoss Concert Case at Knoxville
The State case against Winder, charged by his father in law L H Griffith with threats to take his life, was dismissed by Justice Wallace for lack of evidence. Winder and wife plan to reconcile, and Mrs Winder's divorce petition will be withdrawn. A separate suit for $10,000 damages for slander may proceed against Griffith. The McConnel case was argued, with Judge Willard presiding. A critical review condemns the DeMoss Lyric Bards of America concert as musically poor and theatrically weak, noting the performers’ flaws and poor audience satisfaction. A piece on flexible pens endorses Spencerian Vertical Pens No 87, with samples offered by Spencerian Pen Co. at 450 Broome St, NY. Knoxville June 27 Special reports a 250-person reception for Mr and Mrs T G Gilson celebrating their 25th anniversary, following their 1874 marriage.
