opponents owe them something like

4 Just Verdict. At the recent
tenn Of the Juneau Circuit Court.
Mrs +. 4 Buedick. of Wausau. wa,
awarded judgment against Marshal
il. CASH, Of New Lisbon, for s. see
the same being for damages for false
imprisonment and outrageous treat
ment on the occasion OF her arrest up
on charge Of forgery upon the com
plant Of T. +. IIurd, a merchant Of
New lisbon We gave, at the time
an account of the affair which revealed
wickedness on the part Of the off
cials which wall merited punishment.
and we are glad to chronicle the fact
that, though slow in coming, it has
come at last, and in way that will
make the parties who seemed to IL,
more every attribute Of mercy, realize
that even an alleged criminal has rights
that even Marshal is bound to re
spect. We understand that Mr..
Cash's bondsmen are good, and the
amount will be collected, in Cash.
We hear that when Frank HURD how
the ease was like to go, he very wise
ly made an Orcr to her for a settlement.
ond compromised his little bill for
$500. which was business as far as
Hurd from. Frank is a good boy,
but he was little fast, and the pill he
has taken will probably put a chech, on
his 'positiveness" in the future The
case was tried before Judge Stuart, G.
T. Eldred, of Wausau, and John
Turner, of MauSton, appearing for
Mrs. BurdIck, and Hon. Geo. Graham
of Tomah, aud r. Smith, Of New Lis
bon, for Mr.. Cash. An effort was
made, we understand, to have the YER
diet set aside, but t he effort was fruit
less, the Judge stating, as we are in
ormed, that the verdict met with his
hearty approval.
