the Case.


Justice Furry fined Frank Oliver $25
and costs today for assaulting A. A.
Townsend The assault occurred at Sill
yer Lake, and Townsend took three front
teeth from his pocket and showed them
to the court as an evidence that he
had been assaulted. The row had
not been altogether one sided,
however, for a scar on divers forehead,
where Townsend had hi: him, had not
entirely healed After the assault Oil
yer went to Squire West of Silver Lake,
told him what he done, and paid a fine
of 81 and costs; total $3.50. He
hoped in this way to avoid fur
ther prosecution. Justice Furry held
that this did not constitute
a prosecution within the meaning of the
law, inasmuch as the complaining wit
ness was not notified. Oliver appealed
the case to the district court. The trou-
BILE is the result of long standing feud.

cept it and pay the claim, but was deter
