The attention of the court in the
Hendricks murder case was taken up
yesterday afternoon from the time of
converting at 2 o'clock until $40 o.
clock in hearing arguments of attor-
neys in regard to points involved as
to Rainbolt's right to arrest Oliver,
Hendricks without a warrant. 1t was
proven thai RainboIt was elected a
Constable January 9th, 1899. The com
mission of appointment by Fred Hig-
gins as Deputy sheriff was read in
open court. It was dated January 20.
1899. His bond as an officer approved
by the board of county commissioners
dated January 10, 1901. The Courts
ruling was with the prosecution in
both instances. After the ruling the
defense was willing to concede that
Rainbolt was a deputy sheriff and
constable without proof, but prosecu-
