swore out a warrant for me before Judge
Abernethy, charging that am fugitive

up his bluff that I am wanted in Atlanta.
He wants to railroad me back to Georgia,
but unless he manages with the aid of his
friends in Birmingham to kidnap me to-
night my lawyers will show up his game
in the morning"
Hargrove's face was badly bruised and
he presented a pitiable sight. Detective
