The defendants in the case of
Robert Hughes against the board of

order to show cause for temporary

upon the grounds that the papers

in that it did not contain the sigma

1t is evident that some error was
made in Attorney Regan's office
when the papers were gotten out.
This matter was taken under advise.
ment by the court and whatever the
decision of the court was on this par
ticular question, it does not have
any effect upon the suit proper. This
motion was in reference merely to q
question of having the defendants
restrained from reading the Bible
while the action was pending, and
in the absence of such an order
which cannot now be made without
another application therefore, If the
court should hold the defendants are
correct in their claim that the pa
pers served were not an order, the
school board may continue to read
the Bible if they so desire until
after this trial
The defendants will be required to
file their answer to the complaint
which will probably be done in the
near future, and then the action will
be put on the calendar later to be
tried upon it's merits.
Attorney A. r. Pau, Jr., has been
retained as counsel for the plaintiff
in the case and he stated tins after
noon that the plaintiff maintained
that the papers were correctly made
out and nothing further would be
done by them concerning Inc order
to show cause.
Judge A. r. Pau Sr., stated that
it was necessary to have the copy of
the order signed, but that he be
lieved that nothing would ,e done
further in the matter of the tenn
porary restraining order. He also
stated that he would probably cal
in another Judge when the case
comes up for trial.
