COURT
ATTRACTS CROWDS
Battle Of Attorneys For Twelve Jurors
In Rape Case

The June term of Circuit Court
opened in this city yesterday, Judge J.
F. Hughes presiding, with a dozen
cases on the criminal calendar.
The cases attracting greatest at
tention, ~presaging an important and
impressive fight of the attorneys, is
the Kramer case, in which three men
are charged with rape on the person
Of Mary Kramer, a thirteen year-old
daughter of John Kramer, of York
twp.
The three men are Terry Walton,
a son of Eliza Walton now of Canning.
He was born and raised in this county,
and worked as a farm hand. Grin
McGill, a farm hand who came to the
county a couple of years ago from
Tennessee or Kentucky, George Pike,
a farmer of York twp, and a pioneer
citizen of the county.
These three men, said to have been
on a drinking arous Sunday, May
9Th, are charged with having broken
into the Kramer home, and attacked
Mary Kramer, a child of thirteen
years, who lived with her father and
a young brother and sister.
The three men were held before
Justice G. C. Briggs for a preliminary
hearing. Walton and McGill waived
examination and were bound over in
the sum of $4,000 each. Pike had a
hearing before Justice Briggs, at
which he offered no testimony and he
also was bound over in $1,000 bonds.
No bonds were obtained by any of the
three, and they were confined to Jail.
The prosecution of this case, or
cases, will va conducted by States At
tOrney F. E, Fisher, assisted by Attor-
ney Harlan Bushfield employed by the
County Commissioners. Attorney
John Pusey is counsel for all three
men, Attorney J. II. Cole who repre-
scented Walton and McGill at the pre-
urinary, having withdrawn volun-
tarily.
The preliminary hearing of Walton
and McGill was separated from that
Of Pike, who, it is reported, will en-
deavor to establish the fact that he
did not himself participate in the
crime of rape on the young girl, al
though the states testimony points to
his association with the other two
mon on the day and night of the
crime.
The complaint includes him with
the others in the charge of RAPE on
the grounds that his automobile was
occupied by all three men who called
at the Kramer home a short time
before the door was broken in and
the crime committed against Mary
Kramer.

ADULTERY CHARGE
AGAINST FARMER
Romance and Adultery Charge Involve
Two Sisters and Young
Farmer

Louis Dee, a young farmer of River.
side twp, and his h~ousekeeper, Nits,
Edith Busse, are before Judge Hughes
on a complaint of adultery, filed by
her husband, August Busse, before
Judge W~aterman's court at Rec
Heights, who held them to circuit
court.
The Dee farm of $50 acres is owned
and operated by the Dee brothers,
three young men, who have been re-
sidents for some eight years. Through
an advertisement Mrs. Edith Busse, a
comfy young woman on the sunny side
of thirty-five years, came from Mime
apolis to keep house for the Dee boys
a couple or three months ago. Being
handsome, bright, neatly dressed, and
a good housekeeper, her report that
she had a younger sister In Minno-
apolis started the development of a
rapid romance with Louis Dee. AS a
result of satisfactory correspondence,
the sister, Miss May Glen, came out
and married Louis. The honeymoon
was as brief as the courtship, for in
three days time Mrs. Dee departed
for Minneapolis with a vow to never,
never return, and Mr.. Dee had suit
started for divorce.
Following this shortly came August
Busse from Minneapolis, claiming to
be the husband of Edith Busse, and
demanded that she go with him. She
refused and he filed complaint as
above stated.
