at New Castle, and we'll known in

Jail in Henry county for beating a
board bill in this city, Burr and his

Burr, have been made defendants in a
damage suit filed in the Henry circuit
court for false imprisonment. The
amount of the balm asked is $4,000.
Adams was arraigned before Squire
Burr for defrauding a boarding house
keeper in Richmond and was found
guilty, fined and sent him to Jail, when
Adams failed to pay. An execution
was then issued on the wages of Ad.
ans at a New Castle factory. the
amount of the fine obtained, and Ad.
ans released after being confined a
few hours.
In the civil action just filed, Adams
alleges that Burr failed to take into &C.
count that the law does not permit
the trial authorities of one county
judging an accused man on an offense
which is alleged to have been com
mitted in another county. Mr.. Burr
is q graduate of DePauw university
and prominent in literary circles in
Henry county. His father. who is
his bondsman is one of the wealthiest
