Court lnstructs Jury In Dris-
coll Case at Weiser to
To Acquit Him.

In the district court at Weiser on
Tuesday night Judge Stewart gave the
jury in the case Of Timothy Driscoll,
who was accused Of stealing 100 sheep.
peremptory instruction to render yer.
diet for the defendant for the reason
that the evidence was insufficient to
place Driscoll on the defense. The in
struction was given to the jury on mo-
ton of James II. Hawley who, with Lot
L. Feltham, was counsel for DriscolI.
The case has attracted a great deal OF
interest on account of the prominence
OF the parties involved. Driscoll, who il
well known rheepman, was charged
with grand larceny. The complaint
stated that he had appropriated 100
sheep belonging to Jasper Griffith.
The evidence proved that Driscoll had
not been at the sheep camp where the
theft was alleged to have been commit
ted FOR four weeks prior and one week
subsequent to the date on which the
sheep were stolen. Mr.. Hawley main
tained that his client could not com
nit larceny by proxy and he, therefore
moved the court to instruct the jury tc
find for the defenre which was done.
A Number of prominent men, includ
ing General Joseph Perrault and II. B
Eastman OF Boise and W. A. Coughan
our and A. B. Moss of Payette, wer'
called to testify to the good character 0
Driscoll.
Mr.. Driscoll's many friends in thi
section are glad to know that he ha
been fully exonerated in this case
There has never been a doubt in thei
minds as to his innocence, and the con
clusion OF the case fully iustifies tn
high opinion OF his character.
