Romance of a Ring.
Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle.
Judge Roney delivered his decision
yesterday in a case based upon pecu
liar fads and uot without romautic
interest. The names of the parties
are not necessary to the recital of the
case. Suffice to say T that an attractive
young lady of our county was sued in
a justice court in this city by a young
man, equally well known, forthepos
session of a ring. Owing to some im
perfection in the service of the notice
upon the young lady she paid no at
tention to it, and made no defense in
the justice court. Judgment was
therefore entered against her, and the
justice construing it in the nature of a
Dail trover prcceedure, a constable
was sent to secure the ring. The young
lady had the ring upan her finger, and
refused pointedly and positively to
surrender it.
