Poplar Bluff Citizen: "Last Monday
morning Marshal Miles was notified
that one John Woods had in his pos
session watch that had been stolen
from one James Davis about six months
ago. Mr.. Miles hunted Woods up and
telling that him he would like to ex-
anime watch he carried ran his hand
down in his pocket and pulled it out
before Woods had time to offer any OBJ
jections. The watch was found in the
pocket of his pants, without any chain
to show that he carried such an article.
The watch was readily identified as
the one lost by Mr.. Davis, and Mr..
Woods was taken to Jail and held over
until Monday, when he was taken be-
fore Squire Johnson for trial. Here
he proved that he had bought a check
for the watch which had been placed
in pawn in Cairo, and the witness, who
was railroad man, further testified
that he had taken the check to Cairo
and redeemed the watch for Woods.
The watch was turned over to Davis,
and Woods was discharged"
