The excitement at Moorefeld on
Monday was the preliminary examina-
ton of NJ. o. Gray, ofSmyrna, charged
with forging the name of William
Cash to two notes of $500 each. The
examination was held before NJ. Har-
vey, Esq, who bound him over to
Court, fixing the bail at $1,000 in each
case. Young Gray claims that the sig
nature of Cash is genuine, and that he
seeks to avoid the, loss by claiming
them to be forgeries. Gray is now in
the custody of the Sheriff, and an eff
fort was made Wednesday to have the
bail reduced, with what success we
have not learned. nHsih s'i'- t''
