persons. Jake Hicks was put6n trial first
After exhausting nearly three panels
jury was obtained. One witress swore
that the prisoner stated there would be
hot times in the future; that there would
be fighting, and that he would hold his gun
level. There was some proof that the pris
oner said that the lands would be
divided and each colored man would
get his forty acres and mule.
