The account I sent last Thursday
of the “Scandal was iucorrect in one
particular—the minister’s wife is not
dead. I gave the rumor as 1 heard
it on the street. As no effort has
been niado by any one to keep this
affair a secret, I will say that the
“minister” is the Rev. J.M. Binkley,
pastor of the M. E. Church, and his
wife’s name was Barr at the time of
their marriugo on the 12th of last
May. Her maiden name was Stead-
man, and her parents and brothers,
highly lospoctablo and influential,
reside in Sherman. When the Rev.
Binkley lcarnod his w ife’s “condi-

of Tuosday last, he immediately
sent for her father and brothers to
