Statement Explaining the
Robbery Of Sam Horton
While He Was Incarcer-
ated in Jail, in the Parish
Of st. Mary, Dec. q, 1909.

| On the above named day Horton
was arrested by City Marshal Alberas
and placed in Jail. Mr.. Alberas was
told by Horton while he was search
ing him that the pocket containing an
envelope. as it developed afterwards
was tobacco, consequently Mr. Al
beras looked no further. Horton was
very drunk while in Jail, he was al
lowed to remain in the corridor up
stairs as is usual in the case with
town prisoners, while there he made
the acquaintance with one Victor Eos
ter who is now confined in the con-
demmed cell charged with murder.
On the 18th of January, 1910, the
District Attorney and Deputy Sheriff
Martel had business over at the Jail
and while on their way to attend to 1T
met Mr.. James Il. Parkerson. attorney
for Victor Foster. Mr.. Parkerson
stated to Mr.. Milling that his client,
Victor Foster had just given him five
ten dollar bills as a retainer's fee in
his case, Mr.. Martel who heard this
remark and knowing positively that
Foster had no money for the reason
that when he was placed in Jail, as is
usually the case, he was carefully
searched, in addition to this all mall
or communications received by Foster
was carefully looked into. Mr.. Mar
tel had heard on the streets that Sam
Horton had stated after his release
that he had been robbed OF one hum
bred and forty dollars while in Jail:
he paid very little attention to this
rumor, yesterday afternoon an in
vestigatiOn was begun, and when
questioned, Foster stated that Boga-
lusa had taken the one hundred and
forty dollars from Horton. and hand
ed to him seventy dollars for the pur-
pose of hiring a lawyer and that
Bogalusa had retained the balance.
or seventy dollars, and departed with
it, he having been released on that day,
the 9th of December. Joe. Walker
negro serving time, in jail was then in
terested in the case and learned that
Victor Foster secreted the seventy
dollars in a pamphlet and sent it to
Mary Morris in the cell overhead, he
secured the seven ten dollar bills from
Mary Morris last night and turned
same over to the Sheriff. Mr. Parker
son returned the fifty dollars fee given
him to the Sheriff also, and he, the
Sheriff, now has in hand one hundred
and twenty dollars, Foster having
spent the balance in small amounts
for various articles. All of the above
will be confirmed by statements OF Mr..
Martel, Victor Foster, Joe. Walker,
Bogalusa, Mary Morris. and others.
Mr.. Parkerson Immediately returned
this amount on learning that it had
been stolen from Mr. Horton. Upon
Mr.. Horton becoming duly sober, the
Sheriff will return it to him.
