LIQUOR CASES. Wilbert A. Stevens of Knox
was indicted at the September term of court
1909, for having made two sales of Intoxicating
liquor and for being a common seller. These
were hard cider cases, so-called. He was
rested at the time and a verbal agreement
made with him and his attorney to be ready
for trial at that term of court without the for
mality of being placed under bond. When the
time for trial arrived, however, Stevens could
not be found though he had been seen in the
court room by the sheriff during the forenoon
of the day of trial, apparently waiting for his
case to be called. Since that time Stevens has
been lodging the officer, for he could not be
heard from except from time to time, having
been o4t of the State large part of the time
until July 18th, when he was!arrested in Belfast
by the sheriff and taken before James S. Har
riman, bail commissioner, who admitted him to
bail for his appearance at the next September
