more he procured his release on 81 900

more he procured his release on 81 900
bail. AS late as last night he was noti-
fed by the power that was pushing the
prosecution that there were still other
cases to come. Still, he had not at
tempted to leave. If it was his purpose
to avoid the prosecution he would have
left when under 81 900 bonds only. He
felt that he was being pursued
into the county jail and all he
asked for was his liberty.
He deeply felt the knowledge that he
had lost hundreds and thousands of
his friends, as he had spent seven years
of his life here, and during that time he
had striven to the best of his ability to
discharge his duty fearlessly. He had
raised a family during that time, and
they were now anxiously awaiting his
return at their apartments in the Hol-
lenbeck across the street. In conclud-
ing his appeal Mr.. Damron, in a voice
choked with emotion, said "Keep the
iron clutches of your cursed jail off my
already overburdened shoulders, and I'll
meet you and your charges face to face,
as Greek meets Creek" 2
The court, in fixing the amount
of bail, said that in the first
case it had considered the sum
of 81 900 as sufficient; but that when the
defendant came up again on the second
charge it was moved by a feeling of hes
itancy and doubt. 1t finally, however,
had resolved to favor the defendant once
more, and had again required but 1000
bail. 1t felt this time that there was
something in the demand of the district
attorney to increase the bail, as the case
had much more serious aspect now.
Bail would therefore be required in the
sum of 81, 800.
Shortly after 4 o'clock Mr.. Damron
procured his release, Mrs. Perret and
Thomas M. McCracken having justified
as his sureties in the required sum.

terials as shall be discovered in this
