He Is Discharged on Motion by State
 Attorney.

The production of an express receipt by the attorneys for Henry Coon, who was on trial in the superior court on the charge of theft of money last July while he was taking care of the late Edwin F. Warrington of Lantern Hill had much to do with a motion made by State Attorney Hull to nolle the case when court came in here on Wed nesday morning The receipt showed that some mattresses had been ship ped a week earlier than the prose- cution had supposed and this disposed of the attempt to show what time Coon had had opportunity to get the money that was kept fin a shot bag between the mattresses
 The court granted the motion for A nolle and Coon was given his free dom. His attorneys were Brown a Perkins.
 After the Coon case was disposed of a fury was selected to try the case of William Gudeahn. accused of steal ing one fowl at the farm of w. N, Wheeler in Preston. near Greeneville on Aug. 1e.
