BEFORE ESQUIRE EMERY.77J i'm,
Sherwood, the notorious irrepressible
never-to- be-forgotten jim, is again in
limbo. The minions of the law have
again swooped down on him, and this
time he is in fair way to be sent
to Jacksonville to represent this
city. 1t seems that Jim, got short Of
funds, and he adopted new method
to raise fresh supply of the Chase
portraits done up in green.
He went to Mike Hot, who had
some fees standing against him in the
Criminal Court, and told him that
Ed. Martin had sent him after nine
dollars. Hof gave Jim five dollars
and in a day or so Sherwood went
back after more money. Hof had hi,
suspicious aroused, and proceeded t.
investigate, and the result proved t.
be that Ed. Martin had not sent hin
after the money.
A warrant was issued against jim
for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses, and he had a preliminary exam
ination before Justice Emery, whC
sent him to the County Jail in de
fault Of 5000 bail.
