YOUNG MAN HAS
 TUSSLE WITH LAW Arrested on Charge of Forging
 Express Money Orders.
BIRMINGHAM BANK VIClIM
Homer c. Ligon Was Caught in Dawson, Ga., and Availed Himself of Every Point to Avoid Going to CoIum-
 bus, Georgia-WeIl Known

Columbus, Ga., January 9.-The Colum- bus authorities have been having quite a time of it getting to this city one Homer C. Ligon, a young man who is charged with forgery.
 The specific charge is forging express money orders and cashing them. He is said to have cashed orders amounting to $2O on the Third National Bank of Colum- bus and orders amounting to $50 on the First National Bank of Birmingham.
 Ligon has been in jail in Dawson, and thereby hangs a tale. The arrest of Ligon occurred Sunday at his home at Brown wood, near Dawson. Ligon refused to leave Dawson. He employed attorneys and habe- as corpus proceedings were resorted to.
 The case was argued before the ordinary and the effect of the ordinary's decision was that Ligon remained in Dawson.
 In the meantime Attorney Charles Will Hams, representing the Third National Bank of Columbus, appeared at Dawson. He got Judge Sheffield, of the Superior Court, to turn over Ligon to Deputy Sher- if McMichael of Columbus.
 Ligon' refused to go and it is said fought furiously. It is understood that in the scuffle he was knocked down once or twice by Officer McMichael An officer after ward placed Mr McMichael under arrest. It seems that a warrant for assault and battery had beenS sworn out against him. MT. McMidhael telephoned to Sheriff Roberts about the new turn in the affair and the sheriff arranged at once for his bond. MT. McMiehael was then released. Ligon is known by number of persons in Columbus. His father ran a bowling alley on Broad street number of months ago. Ligon had been in Terrell County only a short time He is a bridegroom of only few weeks, having married young lady at Bronwood.
 Ligon We'll Known.
 Ligon began his work in an Alabama town and it is said that he palmed himself off in that section as a deaf and dumb man and solicited aims.
 Detective Burns has been on Ligon's track for some time. The alleged Colum- bus crime occurred about two weeks ago. It is understood that Ligon slept in the eX- press office in an Alabama town one night and it is thought that he stole some eX- press money order blanks there. It is sur missed that he is old express man,as only one familiar with the matter coupld have filled out the blanks properly and forged the signature In a way to deceive a bank official. Officer McMichael left Dawson for Columbus with Lgon tonight.
