He turned suddenly and looked at me- then thrust his hand in his trousers pocket I thought he was after a pistoY and grabbed his wrist with both hands, asking him what he wanted. He replied nothing but money. I then pulled the hand from the pocket and searched him for pistol He had none, but found the bunch of good money and $3S0 in counterfeit. I carried him to jail and locked him up on a charge of passing counterfeit coins He told me he was from the East and had been working through Alabama.
