Williamston, Oct. 31. - Two sets of burial outfits were procured and two graves dug for the rcmains of Rasscllo Shaw, a well-to-do farmer. Shaw had been marriod four times and had childreu by threc wives. The ohildren and other relatives are all at odds, some of them, with tho widow, insisting that Sliaw should be buried in the Williamston cemetery and the others that he should bo buried at Foute. When the funeral procession was ready to start it looked as if there would be trouble, but au offlcer from Wüliamston persuaded the kiusfolk that the widow should have her way, and the body was interred at Williamston. Relatives are contesting the old man's will. One party had the order appointing an administrator printed in the local paper twenty-four hours before the funeral.
