Counterfeiter Takes His Case
to the Court Of Appeals
at Richmond.

Just before federal court adjourn-
cd Thursday evening Judge Dayton
directed the jury to return verdict
for the defendant in the $4,000 dam
age suit Of Nora Merrifield, admins
tratrix of William Merrifeld. against
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad COM
paty, he-evidencc showing that Will
liam Merrifield was killed by his
own negligence and not by that OF the
railroad company.
Merrifield's death occurred in a
spectacular manner at CASTOR juno
ton on the NJ. r. railroad a few years
ago. He was yard brakeman and
was in the cab of an engine which
was pulling cars of coal from the
coal mine to the main line of the Bal
timore & Ohio down the river. Hang
ing out of the cab window looking
back and crying out to one standing
near the track, he came in contact
with telegraph pole, was dragged
out of the cab and killed.
The damage suit resulted, but the
evidence did not show the railroad
company to blame. On the other
hand 1t showed that he came to his
death through his own negligence.
The jury failed to agree in the case
of James Thorndell, Of West Union,
charged with an internal revenue vio
lation.
Roe Dove of Randolph county, was
acquitted by jury of similar charge.
Dove was acquitted on the ground
that the point where the sale was
made is in Randolph county. which ii

ern district. ,n3i
John NJ. Hanger. convicted and sen-,
fenced one year for counterfeiting was

decision of the court OF appeals In
his case, when rendered. The bond,
vas fixed at $4,000 and his wife ana
l;harles, S. Fuller are his sureties
The jurors for the term were dis
charged. Friday morning.
After looking after a few minor
matters Judge Dayton adjourned the
term Friday morning sine die.
