ING OVER TWO 0A's-rHRTy.THREE WITNESSES CALLED BY
BOTH soEs-LEoMRD kRcHoFF, co-DEFENDANr, DIS
CHARGED TO TESTIFY FOR sTArE-D,sAcReeMENT LOOKED


In making his opening statement to
the jury County Attorney Chas. A.
Taylor of Yellowstone county, who
assisted County Attorney Desmond J.
O'Neil in the prosecution, briefly went
over the points that the state would
attempt to prove. The defendants
were charged with grand larceny or
cattle stealing in that they had some
time in 1910 killed and appropriated
to their own use beef belonging to
Handel Bros. Of Musselshell and bear
ing their brand. The state showed
that the hide of the beef after it had
been killed was mutilated and the
parts bearing the brand concealed.
These pieces were afterwards found
and pieced together disclosing the
brand II Bar Handel Bros brand
Horseshoe imprints found near the
scene OF the killing were identified as
beiag similar to those made by the
shoes worn by a horse owned and
used by the defendant Wright Harvey.
BY evidence introduced the defense
showed that the defendant believed
that he was the rightful owner of the
animal in question.
The defense introduced evidence
that someone other than the defendant
concealed the pieces of hide, and other
testimony tending to offset the states
side of the case.
