Subscribed and sworn to before me
this 18th day of September. 1903.
'.WIILTAM CALDWELL
Justice OF Peace, Seattle Precinct. King
County"
Henry Fuhrrnan was seated q. his desk
in his Office in the Sullivan building. with
his feet on the table, when Terry King en-
tered. The constable said:
II have a warrant for you, Mr.. Fuhr-
man"
That gentleman, to whom his visitor was
stranger, turned and replied:
ITO with your warrants; Amt
hnying no warrants"
Constable King briefly explained his
mission.
Well. responded Thurman. "when am
/ to come over"
IL am going TO take you with me now"
was the constable's answer.
WHAT exclaimed Fuhrman. jumping
TO his feet.
Explanations followed. and King read
the warrant charging Mr.. Thurman with
the offense alleged in the information and
ordering his arrest.
Mr.. Thurman readily agreed 10 accom-
pany the constable. but requested the
privilege OF sending for his lawyers,
Hughes, Hastings & Stedman. There
was no objection. and Mr.. Hastings
came Immediately. The party crossed
the street and notified Assistant
Prosecuting Attorney Mcbride that
they were on the way to the
Justice court 10 see about bonds. Mr..
Hastings went direct 10 the court, but
Mr.. Thurman and Constable King made
several stops in the matter of securing
bondsmen. 8. l.. Crawford was the first
one Mr.. Thurman told of the trouble he
was In, and Mr.. Crawford agreed to be-
come one of his sureties. Later Dr. r. b.
NJ. Miller, Jacob Frauenthal. A. w. Price
aud A. b. Stewart agreed 10 assist him to
liberty. All but the first two named came
into court with the prisoner and signed q
paper that had been prepared by Mr..
Hastings, setting forth that they held
themselves liable in the sum of $50, 900
for the appearance OF Mr.. Thurman
before Justice Caldwell at such time
as might be fixed. Mr.. Hastings OBJ
iected streuuously to the amount of bail,
claiming that il was excessive. Assistant
Prosecuting Attorney Mcbride opposed
the idea of lowering it one cent and in this
was sustained by Justice Caldwell. The
bondsmen then signed tho bond and the
hearing was set for next Friday afternoon,
Mr.. Thurman asserting to the time. Mr.
Thurman evidently did not enjoy the pro-
oeedings. although there were few people
in the courtroom. He looked bored, and
as he LEFT the room free man said to
the justice:
You may rest assured that will ap-
pear. ! have no intention of leaving the
city"
