SOLICITOR WILL
PROBE into
KILLING
Of Sim Mason, and il is Possible
Linton will Be Held to
Grand Jury.

The killing of Sim Mason near Bluff
Springs by William Linton some weeks
ago will be given a thorough investiga-
ton Monday by County Solicitor Loftin,
who has summoned the witnesses in this
case to appear. before him. and it de-
ponds upon what develops at this inves-
tigation whether or not Linton will be
tried at the term of the Criminal Court
which convenes next week. He is now
in the county Jail held upon the charge
of manslaughter, but IL the county So
licitor deems 1t advisable after hearing
the statements of the witnesses, he will
not call the case in the criminal court,
but await an investigation at the hands
of the next grand jury.
The case of ]. B. Vaughn may also
come up at this term of court, but as yet
it is not definitely known, for the reason
that the mandate of the supreme court,
which reversed the decision of the lower
court and remanded the case back here
for trial, has not yet been received. If
it should be received Mr.. Vaughn will be
arraigned upon the charge of manslaugh-
ter during the term.
With the exception of these two cases,
which may possibly come before the
court at this term, there are no cases
of any Importance to be tried and the
term will be a short one.

Consequently it is not believed that
