GRANT AND EBB.
The Former IS Sentenced to Seven
Years at Hard Labor In .
Saltwater.
While Watson will LanguiSh in
the Nicol1et Jail For
Sixty Days.

AS soon as court was called to order
Monday morning US. Grant, convict
ed of forgery, was called to the bar
and sworn. By occupation he said
that he was thresher and had never
learned any trade, although he had
practiced at machine work for five
years. He had nothing to say why
sentence should be passed upon him
at that time, and then Judge Webber
sentenced him to seven years at hard
labor in the penitentiary at Saltwater.
He was given stay of proceedings
until Oct. I'd, for the purpose of Civ
ing his attorneys an opportunity to ap-
ply for new trial. Bail was fixed at
SIS 1000, in default of which Grant was
committed to the Brown county Jail.
Ebb Watson, convicted of malicious
mischief, was called to the bar, and
when asked whether he had anything
to say why sentence should be passed
upon him, replied, "Well, really, ] have
not" Judge Baldwin asked for elem
ency, however, and wanted sentence
deferred until the next term of court
in order to give Watson an opportun-
ity to prepare for winter, but Judge
Webber refused the request. County
Attorney Pierce wanted the court to
understand that the extreme penalty
provided by law was inadequate, but
Judge Webber said that he considered
the condition of Watson's family and
his conduct since the indictment was
returned. and would not give him the
extreme punishment. He then SEN
fenced Watson to confinement in the
Nicollet county Jail for two months,
and Watson left for st. Peter the same
day.

= GRANTS STORY.
He Tells 1t to the Jury Without
Hesitdtlng.

The special term of court for the
purpose of trying and ferreting out
the criminal gang which has been
operating in and around Redwood
Falls for the last three or four years
has been productive of a great deal of
good. With U. S. Grant convicted Of
forgery in the first degree, a crime
having maximum penalty of 20 years
in the penitentiary, and Ebenzer Wat
son convicted of sowing wild mustard
on the farm of Judge Bowers, an Of
fense so heinous that the legislature
has never provided for the punish
ment, County Attorney Pierce may
we'll rest on his laurels, and the peo-
pie of the county must at least say
"well done,good and faithful servant"
Mr.. Pierce,of course, has done nothing
more than his duty, but he has been
careful in preparing his chains of evi-
dence, and since the trials numerous
Republicans, as we'll as Democrats
have suggested that he stand for
county attorney this fall.
The jury in the case of U. S. Grant
was we'll selected, an honest, t,conscient-
ious lot of farmers and business men,
and they weighed the case carefully.
The case was given to them about 10
o'clock Friday morning and after an
all night session they returned YER
dict Saturday morning of guilty as
charged in the indictment. Grant
meyer moved as the word "guilty" was
pronounced. He was as if marble.
His eyes were fixed in their sockets.
His face held it's natural color. His
attorneys, Messrs. Hughes and Bald
win secured a 30 day stay, and Grant
was placed in charge of Sheriff BE
then, sentence being deferred until
Monday morning.
II am rs years OLD, SAID Grant, IN
relating his tale of the forgery to the
jury. 81 am married and have one
child. During the latter part of 1898
James Dufield came to my house
with this alleged forged deed. Be-
tore this time, however, cattle buyer
named John Black came to my house
with Duffield and said that he wanted
me to transfer some land for him and
gave me the power of attorney. He
told me to transfer the land to Duff
field, saying that he had to be in Du-
buque the next day, and couldn't
possibly remain to transfer it. I have

ium dark colored suit of clothes, oc-
casionally wearing an over-coat.
"The next morning after the two
appeared Dufield came to me and
wanted me to copy the deed. I copied
it as near as I could and gave it back
to him. don't know who witnessed
the original deed. It is not in my
writing. I did not put the notarial
seal on the deed. I never had such a
seal. On this same day we went to
Morton and it was transferred from
John Black to James Duffeld. I
represented myself as John Black, be-
cause Attorney Madigan had prev
iously told me that it was alright
that I should represent myself as
Black and sign his name. Black
previously gave Dufield the money
for the tranfer, and the next day Duff
field gave me $3.50 for my work. I
never had any idea that the deed was
going to be used for any fraudulent
purpose, and / never had any under
standing with any one that I was to
receive vecuniary consideration, other
than the $3.50. 1 never talked with
Madigan or Duffield on the matter be-
fore l saw Black. I never admitted
to Geo. Welch that had forged the
deed, and the only talk we had on the
same was that Welch told me that
Duffeld said that there was job to
pass forged deed on the Citizens
Bank.
On cross-examination Grant said
that he saw Black before the day on
which Black and Duf6eld came to his
house. It was on the streets of this
city. He did not tell any one that he
was Mrs. Wylie's son by former
marriage, Mrs. Wylie being one of the
parties to the deed. He was not in
the habit of drawing up and copying
deeds of that kind, but secured work
wherever and whenever he could.
Black was stranger to him. He
never had any business dealing with
Black before. He never told George
Welch that he had sent for Henne-
pin county seal, but admitted having
written letter for Black for such q
seal. Here the State produced the
letter written by Grant to the North
western Stamp Works for the seal, and
Grant thought it was the same letter
he wrote for Black. 1t was on paper
of the Commercial Hotel, S. E.
Bailey, Proprietor" and referred to
an enclosure of $3 to pay for the seal.
With this the cross-examination closed,
and Grant left the stand.

WILD MUSTARD EBB.
The Testimony That Sent Him to
the NiCollet County Jail.

Owing to the intense interest taken
by the farming community in the case
against Grant, Watson and Rohrer, in
dicted for sowing wild mustard on
Judge Bowers farm that case is given
the bulk of court space in the GAZETTE
this week. Early last Friday morning
County Attorney Pierce, who has made
favorable impression as prosecutor,
moved that the case against Grant be
dismissed for certain legal reasons,
and when the State rested Friday ev-
ening Mr.. Hughes, who has been as
sisting Judge Baldwin in the defense,
moved that the case against John
Rohrer be dismissed, as there was no
evidence tending to criminate him.
County Attorney Pierce consented to
the dismissal, young Rohrer, who is a
mere boy, breathing free air, and leav-
ing Watson the only defendant in this
celebrated criminal case. All of Fri
day forenoon was occupied in securing
a jury, and in the afternoon Judge
Bowers was the first witness called.
Judge Bowers, who owns the farm
on which the wild mustard was sown,
was the first witness called. He was
in possession of the land up to last
March, he said, on direct examination.
The land had little or no mustard pri-
or to this year, except here and there
scattering stalk, which was always
pulled. In February or March of this
year, he, together with Starin, went
on to the farm and found mustard
seed on both the plowed land as well
as the stubble. The mustard came up
in the spring, together with the corn
planted on the tract. I found q great
deal of it, and occasionally stalks al
ready blossomed. Stalks were also
coming up in the rye adjoining.
went out last Saturday evening and
found more stalks blossoming. Rohr-
er told me last March that all he had
to do with the sowing was to drive the
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1894-08-30

team out. He said they got the mus
tard seed at Watson's house.
Asked whether he was practical
farmer the Judge said that he could
not safely answer the question. Mus
tard, he said, was an obnoxious weed,
which depreciates the value of land
and interferes with the growing Of
crops. Mustard growing makes land
hard to sell, and depreciates it from
81 to SIS. On this 80 on which the
mustard was sown, the value has de-
creased $16O.
On cross-examination Mr.. Bowers
stated that he leased the farm on
March 1st last to Mr.. Reed, the tenant.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1894-08-30

He was sure that no mustard ever
went to seed upon that land that could
have seeded it the way it was seeded.
Prior to last October there was very
little mustard growing on the farm.
We put the tract in corn and kept it
plowed SO that the mustard has not
interfered with the growing of the
crop.
On redirect examination Judge Bow
ers stated that the land had heretofore
been sown to wheat and oats. Watson
expressed feelings of hostility in my
presence some eight or ten years ago
and once last winter. It was abusive
both times. He called me s. of q
b or words to that effect, when I de-
Tended an action which his mother
brohght some ten years since, and I
had no conversation with him since
until last winter.
D. w. Whttat was the next witness
called. He testified that the land was
quite clear of mustard last and prior
years, but in February or March OF
this year I found seed on the farm.
He knew it was mustard seed from
the taste. The mustard was found
just on this 2O-acre tract, and did not
grow from the seed of mustard grown
on the farm.
Here Mr.. Whittet produced some OF
the mustard seed found on the farm
last May ,and it was offered in evidence,
and exhibited to the jury.
On cross-examination Mr.. Hughes
attempted to prove that the mustard
had not been properly picked from
the farm last year, and that it was i'm
possible to see all of the mustard
growing on any farm. He called Judge
Bowers to the stand and asked him
whether W. B. King had not request
ed him to pull the mustard from his
farm last year, but Mr.. Bowers merely
replied: He may have told me of a
few stalks being on the farm, but they
were pulled at once.
U. S. Reed, the tenant, was called
and confirmed the previous statements
regarding the finding of mustard seed.
Archibald Milloy was called. and
stated that in March, 1898, he prom
ised to save Watson some mustard
seed when he cleaned his wheat with
the tanning mill. Watson claimed
that he wanted it for the purpose of
seeding it around his door, the bios
