Sailing was convicted before Judge
Hoffman, and sent 70 the pcniten

Holt, and IL IL understood that ac-
cordng TO the terms Of his parole. he
was to complete his sentence should
he enter pottawatome county during
Mr. Holt's term OF office
However there are still two cases
against Sailing here, one in the su-
perior court and one in the county
court. Wnen the superior court case
was called, Sailing Is said to have
gone before Governor Cruee and ask

Attorney Holt SAYS that he will then

Thus Sailing is between the devil
