Jay 2. Davis, the ex- deputy OF the
district court, was sentenced to Still
water prison for six years at hard labor
by Judge Kerr. DAVIS had defrauded
the county out of about$20, 900 by issuing
false Jury certificates. It don't seem
possible that $500 could be thus paid Out
by the treasurer in one month on forged
certificates, but such is the fact. In
passiug sentence Judge Kerr said: l
think this is the most painful duty L
have ever had to perform. You, MIR.
Davis, have been trusted officer OF
this court. You were educated in the
law, and knew the enormltY OF the
crime YOU were committing much better
than many like offenders. l. have lis.
tened carefully to the remarks OF your
counsel, and they have excited nv sym
pathy for YOUR unfortunate family and
your own unhappy position. But you
were in a position of trust-in charge
of grave interests. It was aot q case of
rare and overpowerin% temptation.
yielded to in moment of pressure, but
a case where your larceny extended over
period of years and was carried with
in the very halls Of justice by you, an
attorney aud officer of this court. 1t is
therefore, impossible for this court to
allow it's sympathy to bias it's judgment
by imposing a light sentence on you
The Judgment Of this court is that YOU
be taken to the state prison at Still
water and there confined at haru labor
for the period OF six years. Davis did
not once finch during the judges talk,
and walked calmly away with deputy
at it's conclusion.
