has been arrested for assault and
battery and damage suit will be
instituted against all the officers
concerned in the high handed af-
fair. Hearing of the habeas corpus
case will be had Thursday. Hall
sold patent rights for the county
and parties claim they only signed
a contract, but it proved to be ne
gotiable paper. Hall says the
notes were given him in payment
and that some of them were not
paid after he transferred them and
that he had to make them good.

for the murder of Annie Maledon.
