The Green Forest tribune., 1893-08-31


in Green Forest of late than we
have ever before known here. On
last Friday night an attempt was
made to burglarize the residence
OF W. G. Russell, and and on Sat
urday night similar job was tried
on the home of George Sheppard.
Each instance theperpetrators were
driven away only by the discharge
OF firearms. Not many nights ago
some parties visited the post Office
at late hour and acted very sus-
piciously. 1t is a mere accident
that these burglars have not al
ready received their just deserts,
and we hope our citizens will loose
no time in fixing for them should
they call again. In the meant me
we hope our Deputy Sheriff will
look after those fellows who have
been making the nights otherwise
hideous. Order is said to be heav-
ems first law, butt is the last thing
observed by some Of our people.
Circuit Court wound up its work
in one week, and adjourned Satur-
day afternoon. The trial of Fl. II.
COPELAND, for the murder of Fanch-
er, was given change of venue to
Madison county, and was set for
trial at Huntsville next Monday
week. Lee Boles was given five
years in the pen for the robbery
of Rev. r. A. Martin of Denver. 1t
will be remembered that Boles was
convicted of this crime six months
ago at Huntsville, and was senten-
ced to three years, but he appealed
to the Supreme Court and on some
technicality he was granted new
hearing. These were the only very
important cases disposed of this
term. The Grand Jury returned
fifty true bills of indictment involv-
ing sixty-three defendants.
