PRESS
With Libel Suit by Rohn,
Who Failed to Sell His
Horse Here.

A. {. Rohn writes from Sentinel Butte
that unless the PRESS apologies and
takes back all it said last week about him
that we will have a lawsuit on our hands,.
That would be too bad
The PRESS last week warned horse
men to shave a care" when buying So
called pure bred stock. We knew what
we were talking about before inserting
the warning and VIZ have received some
additional information since.
Mr.. Mckay and another man came to
Dickinson with a stallion, which was sold,
or b%argained, to L. Scott of Taylor for
$500.
MIR. Mckay guaranteed the pedigree of
the horse, parading a paper in the form
of a certificate with much ribbon embel-
lishment, %purporting to be a pedigree
issued by a bona fde breeders ~associa-
ton. inexperienced horsemen might
have taken this paper for the real thing,
but people who have purchased pure
bred horses of reliable breeders in the
east at once detected that it was not gen.
uine.
Mr.. Scott decided that he was being
bunchocd, and threatened to put some
one behind the bars in short order.
At this stage of the game, A. c. Rohn,
a very smooth gentleman, appeared on
the scene for the first time. The $500
had been deposited in his name in the
First National bank, but it was quickly
turned back to MIR. Scott, and the stran.
gers shipped their horse west.
Now if Rohn was not in the deal, why
was the money placed in the bank to his
credit and why did he give up the $500!
In our opinion, Roln and Mckay were
not a little disappointed last week to find
that the PRESS was generally read in
Billings county.
They should have gone farther ives,
before unloading and trying again to sell

Wedding Bells.

Promptly at 2:3o Thursday afternoon
at the BRIDES home Rev. F. w. Gress
of the Methodist Episcopal church,
joined in holy wedlock Garfield

Hayes; Frank Partridge, brother of the
groom, was best man.
The bride was dressed in a light gray
silk batiste trimmed in white a~ll-over
lace; the brides maid wore a pretty
white silk muslin. while the groom and
best man wore conventional black.
After the ceremony the guests sat
down to a sumptious feast of good
things.
The happy couple are we'll known to
the Dickinson people, especially MI.

some time. The happy couple were
the recipients of many useful presents

friends. Their home will be with
