VERDICT OF GUILTY.
Case 0ses Against Father Of Girl Who
Married Against His Will.

Otturnwa, Sept. 22.-Guilty Of as
eault and battery was the verdict of
the jury in the case of the state of
Iowa VS. George w. Halstead, charged
with assault with intent to kill. The
court will sentence Halstead Saturday
morniniy. The jury's verdict is a
climax to q series of complications
concerning John IS. Farmer, Alora,
Farmer, nee Haktead, and George w.
sHalstead. Upon December 20, 1904,
John s. Farmer, and Miss Alora Hal
stead were married. Following the
ceremony the girl returned to the home
of her father. who then knew nothing
Of her marriage. Upon finding that
the girl had married, he refused her
the privilege Of returning to her hus-
band. This provoked a lhabeas corpus
proceeding by Farmer, which after
several days, trial resulted in Farmer
being denied the custody of his wife.
"A week elapsed and the girl rejoined
her husband at the home of Mrs. En-
ma j. Pumroy, south Of the city. This
home was the scene of the shooting
affair in which Farmer lost the sight
OF one eye and for which Halstead has
just finished trial.

an old time friend of George Girls
void, the murdered man, and had adj
vanced him money on number of oc-
casions, it is said. Griswold main
tanned an account with him. Three
days before Griswold disappeared at
Des Mttines he drew on Federson for
$500, ard the money was furnished as
requested. In his message to FEEDER
son, Gl'iswold assured him that the
next letter would bring a deposit to
cover the amount requested. Instead,
the next mail brought request for
s1,300 more. and Federson promptly
telegraphed a refusal.
Get Rich Quick Deals.
It seems that Griswold and Steve
Essex Of Des Moines were mixed up
An a number Of Exiting" or "get-rich-
quick financial transactions. Girls
void gave Essex worthless check for
$4,000 and the latter deposited 1t with
d country bank at Sandyville, check
ing against 1t until he received some
thing like $1,000. When the Sandy
vile bank discovered Griswo1d's check
was worthless, they sought to recover
from Essex. but he escaped on the
claim Anat his transaction had been in
good faith and in his capacity as an
officer>o Of corporation and not in his
personal capacity. It is supposed that
\ the two men maintained accounts in
different small banks to assist them in
these Exiting" transactions.
Il Theory Of the Murder.
The theory of Griswold's murder is
said to depend largely upon revela-
sfions regarding the transaction with
the local bank. Griswold endeavored
ito send an express package to Feder-
: son the day he disappeared. but failed,
and it is supposed he was killed by
some one who sought to secure possess
sion Of the papers in this package.
+ The suggestion of suicide is not cred
tied, because Griswold's hands were
n tied behind his back when the body
was found in the river, four days after
his disappearance,
