Pagan Scott Begins Serv-
ing Out Fine.
AMOUNTS TO $45I.40 IN ALL
Question of Ownership Of $500 Cash
Bond Promises to Be Point Of
Issue in Garnishment Suit.

Pagan Scott, convicted Of assault
with a deadly weapon on the person
of George Ortell at the last session OF
the superior court and sentenced to
pay a fine of $500 and costs amounting
to $451.4O, yesterday went to jail to
serve out the fine. The question OF
the ownership of the $500 cash bond
which Scott put up to insure his ap-
pearance at the trial promises to be
the point at issue in the garnishment
suit instituted by Prosecuting Attor-
ney Wilson against Clerk Hauerbach
to satisfy the judgment out of the
bond held by the clerk.
At the time his bonds were placed
at $500 Scott did not have the re-
quired amount and it was furnished
by relatives and a close friend. In
stead of putting it up themselves the
money was turned over to Scott. The
claim of the state will probably be
resisted on the ground that it was
not SCOTS money that was put up
and also that inasmuch as he is in
iail at present serving out the fine
that the bond is imperative. A count
er suit for the recovery of the money
may be instituted by the owners.
Scott will spend 141 days in Jail if
he serves out the full amount of the
fine imposed.
