case against May Culbertson and
George lie Gage reached an agreement
and brought i'm a verdict of not guilty,
the jury being to 4.
The defense began its inning with the

tive that the teacher did not use her
revolver in any threatening manner.

She simply took it out of her dress
pocket and kept it in her lap as a sort
of object lesson to Mick, and the argu-
ment proved so convincing that he
signed up.
This was not until he had called Miss
Culbertson "a liar" 1t was when this
epithet was applied that the nervy
teacher pulled the gun.
James Perry and A. r. LeGaye also
swore that Miss Culbertson did not
point the weapon at Mick.
Miss Culbertson admitted at the pre-
linminary hearing that she said she
was going to make her own fight
