him and that he did not know whether
he was dead or not. When the police
arrived on the scene, Garrett was
found lying on the floor. but was not

by the witness, the DIRECTORS claim
that $40 of the names he secured are
invalidated. Sheet after sheet of the
petition was shown to him and he was
asked as to who had filed in the dates
after the names. He admitted hav-
ing written in the dates on a dozen or
so Of the papers, claiming for the
most part that the signers had author
lied him to do so. One sheet he CON
fessed having filled in without any
authorization whatever. The statute
pronounces this forgery.
This afternoon Judge Graves issued
a warning TO witnesses who are at
tending court as the result of sub
poenas served on them. advising them
not to leave court without permission
of the lawyers who had summoned
them. The warning is the result Of
information which is being circulated
among the witnesses to the effect that
the subpoenas are not valid and mat
witnesses can leave court when thew
please.
For two days the judge and cir
cult clerk have been beseiged by wit
nesses wanting to know if they had
to remain in court and who was going
to pay them their witness fees.
