as a sort Of martyr to his cause, refused.
saying that he did not want to do any
thing which would in any way tend to COM
prOLniS his cause.
Mccain was fined si0O in the First Dis

Judge Thomas II. Peabody for failure to
take out a real estate license. Mccain was
told that his case would be dismissed if he

was sustained. McCann was arrested on
July l6 and sent to the Worihouse three
