DOG DEFENDER
WAS ALLOWED
PROBATION

John Clayton in the district court this
morning pleaded guilty to assauting
Harold Mustapha Capt Whipple of Sta
ton told the cotrt that Clayton might
have thought himself justified In strik-
Ing Mustapha. as he had reasons to think
that Mustapha was trying to steal one of
his dogs, and that he was worked up over
the fact that two of his valuable dogs
had been stolen recently
Mustapha, said the captain, admitted
having snapped his fingers at the dog
Mr. Clayton told the court that since
his dogs were stolen last June he was
suspicious of every one. and the night OF
the assault he saw Mustapha standing at
the gate. but left when he approached,
and that when his wife told him that the
man had been calling one OF the dogs he
followed to learn what the object OF the
man was, that Mustapha threatened to
hit him with brick, and he supposed
that he struck him.
At the request OF Probation Officer
Wallace Mr.. Clayton was placed on pro-
baton. Mr.. Wallace in making his re-
quest sais that he seldom asked proba-
ton in assault cases. but that as Mr..
Clayton is a respectable business man,
and doubtless thought he was justified,
he would make the request in this case.
