Bob Skaggs was acquitted by the
jury yesterday because the state was
not able to prove that the gun he
pulled on Mr.. Burke was loaded. As
Bob is not a buffer one would natur-
ally think that when he pulled d
double barrelled shotgun with both
hammers cooked ready to fire, took
aim and threatened to blow Burke's
and Graham's heads off he meant
business. At any rate, they did not
stop to examine the gun to see
whether or not it was loaded. Per-
haps, if they had, they would not
have been in our yesterday to tcs-
tify. Such law looks to the ordin-
AIRY man as the refinement of non
