UNDER BONDS OF SI5O EACH
Frederick Syngton and Robert Stevens Bound Over to Superior Court = Hearing Was Held Before Justice
 William Smiddy in Montvile Accused of Binding Hy-
 man Bass and Leaving Him in the Woods.

out with a box, as if they were to deliver groceries, but they seized Bass and put him into the machine ana drove of into side road near the Pleasant View farm of Jacob Siegal in the town of Montvflle. On the way one of them struck him, he said.
 When the automobile stopped the two tied up his hands and feet with wire. His hands were tied behind his back, but his feet were tied so that he had a little motion and they told him that he could probably walk home in time for supper. This was after they had asked him if he had had any dinner and had been answered in the negative.
 When the binding operation was completed, Symington gave him a punch in the jaw, the witness said. and then they left him by the side of the road near stone wall. The witness showed to the court a swell ing on his face that he said was the effect of the punch in the jaw that he got.
 After the two young men in the automobile had gone away, young Bass said he climbed over the stone wall and by working the wire around his feet against some stones was able to get it loose, so that he could walk. Then he walked to the farm house of Jacob Siegal, where he told his story and the wire that bound his hands was taken off with pliers. He kicked on the door when he arrived there about the middle of the after noon and Jim Pouneh let him in and took the wire off his hands. After resting on a couch for some time Bass walked the five miles to his home in Thamesville
 He testified that the reason for the way he had been treated was because he had taken away some of the cus- toners to whom Symington and Ste vens had been selling papers, and he said that on Saturday he was invited
 to come into the store at Thamesville
 and when he>got there his face was
 creased with/p and pork was jam med into his mouth
 Other witnesses who testified were Jacob Siegal and his son, Julius Sic gal, Jim Pounch, Constable Meyer Blumenthal and Jack Sadinsky.
