 A watch of no great value figured in the court proceedings. Various wit nesses attempted to identify it as Pen nery's. Pennery said he bought his watch from Leon Pierce, who runs a grocery store over in the wilds of Foster, and sells about everything from | beer to bicycles.
 Mrs. Pennery's watch was said to have been more valuable than her hus- bands. It was high grade make and was in good condition excepting that | it's crystal was smashed and one of | the hands was broken off.
