TWO ITALIANS ARE RELEASED
Angelo Granata and Mike MarebelIi
Freed In Justice Of Peace Court

Mike Marebelli, charged with
assault with deadly weapon, was
given a preliminary hearing in
Justice of Peace O'Callaghan S
court Saturday morning and the
case was dismissed. A similar
case against Angelo Granata was
dismissed without a hearing in
court Monday morning. Both
men were charged with having
made an assault upon the person
of Joseph Lateano on Christmas
eve near the Great Northern sec
ton house. The evidence intro
duced at the preliminary hearing
Saturday showed plainly the intent
of the accused but did not estab-
lish their guilt sufficiently concern
ing the specific charge made
against them.
