ALLEGED CRIMEIN CHERRY VALLEY
Observation-Disclosures, II TRUE.-.On
Friday last the citizens of this portion
of Lake county were startled ut the in
telligence of the crime of incest having
been committed by James NJ. Avcry,a
well known citizen of Cherry Valley
township, upon the person of his own
daughter-Miss Nettie M. Avery, aged
about nineteen years.
On the day above mentioned, the
girl came to Baldwin and made affida-
Wit to the facts in the case, stating that
the crime had first been committed i'm
1871, when she was about fourteen
years of age; that it was repeated, or
an attempt made to do SO, last Spring.
A warrant was issued, and it was served
by Sheriff Grant, who arrested Avery
and brought him to town. On being
arraigned before the Justice, for pre-
liminary examination, he waived that
right and was bound over in the sum
of 81, 900 for appearance ut the next
term of Circuit Court, there to answer
to the charge. Avery was allowed to
go in charge of F. Hibner, of Cherry
Valley township, until Monday noon,
when he appeared and offered as bonds
men Mr.. Swayne and son, of Nirvana;
Jas. /. Parks, Pleasant Plains township,
and +. Hibner. After some delay, the
bond was accepted, and the accused al
lowed to go home.
1T is said that the girl swcars posi-
lively to the alleged facts i'm the case.
If she will testify as positively in Cir
cult Court; we can see no hope of es-
cape for the accused. There are rumOIs
current that she will not appear OH the
day of trial, but that she will be absent
from the county. 1t is very easy for
people to imagine such situation of
afIljrs, without foundation i'm fact; yet
there may be truth i'm the story, and
it would he well enough for our officials
70 look toit, that there bc no compound
iDg OF felony i'm the matter. II Mr..
Avery is guilty of the sickcning crime,
as charged, he certainly deserves Sc
we're punishment. If he is not guilty,
1t is very strange state of affairs in
deed which would lead his daughter to
make such terrible charge against
him. So far as our knowledge of Mr..
Avcry's character up to the time of the
present trouble, extends, he wasa man
generally respected as u citizen. That
he should commit such an act, almost
exceeds belief, and yet, how could his
own child make such charge without
the truth being in 1t? We believe Mr..
Avery denies the charge, and would
have the public believe that the whole
thing is the result of sort of conspi-
racy against him. Whatever the case
may be, let us hope that the trial may
come off rs intended, and that the
whole truth may be discovered, to the
end that justice may bc done.
