o hou 10 for Col. G W. Carr near CRYSTAL
Spring was placed under bond OF 5000
TO keep the peace until to morrow, and
also impressed on him that he had no
legal right to interfere with the owners
possession OF he property, but that his
wrongs, If any, should be righted by law
The particulars OF the affair seem 10
be as follows: Mr.. Moore was to COM
plete the house for Colonel Carr during
the year 1893, but III case Moore did not
use proper material or do the work &C
cording to the specifications the con-
tract would be null and the work should
be taken in charge by the architt CT, G.
G. Wilson.
The work hal been so delayed that
Colonel Carr went TO the house last
Sunday evening and took peaceable
possession and asked the architects to
proceed with the work.
VIZ. Wilson's employees claim thew
were several times attacked by Mr..
Moore and the last named gentlem an
WAS brought before Justice Gregory,
who did not require him to give bond to
keep the peace as was desired, but
sent MIN on to the grand jury. He was
tried then on warrant before Justice
Williams, who required him 10 give a
bond If $500 to appear before the police
court 10 morrow.
Since Justice Williams d, cision it
WAS claimed that Moore again went TO
Colonel Carr's house, broke in and took
forciole possession. 1t was Tor this
la;rer ffvnse that the case was tried in
TIE bustings Court yesterday, with the
result given above.
Colonel Carr was represented by WAL
