complete sold TO man named Parker, an
Oregon farmer, certain real estate in this
city TO which they had no title. Parker
did not examine the title, but gave them
5000 cash and his farm in Oregon, worth
$1,000. When recently the title TO the
city property was found to be defective,
Hamberg entered plea that he had sold
under belief that the title was perfect,
but he would not refund the money. Later
Hamberg' saccomplice confessed that Ham,
berg had deliberately planned 10 rob
Parker OF his money. The Jury then found
Ilamberg guilty. and the court, In sem
fencing the prisoner, regretted that the
crime OF which he was guilty was only a
misdemcanor in California. The Judge
then sentenced him TO imprisonment In the
county jail for one year, and that he pay q
fine equal 10 double the amount OF money
he fraudulently obtained from Parker
namely, fine Of $40, 900, and that in do.
