Our lawyers fought on every point
they could think of, but is was no
60. They 'overrulcd the notion
for new trial. our lawyesr are 20
ing TO carry our case 70 the supreme
court, and if We are granted it, we
can get our witnesses and we can
beat it. Allen if YOU want a lawyer,
employ Judge Abernathey, for he
will fight until there is not hair
left To fight it on; that is, if they
don't ''overrulc the motion"
