KEPT
FROM CURRITUCk
Fearing Violence to Youthful 6anots'
Currituck Sheriff Brings Them
To This City

Lacked i'm a cell of the Elizabeth City
iail are the four alleged boy DahuitS
who are said to have committed series
of daring robberies in CurrItuck county
cuIminating in the sensational hold up
of 4 4. Snowden. prominent Currl-
tnck farmer. near Maple on the night OF
Docembor 18th last. Brought tn Shaw
boro from the Norfolk city Jail. they
waived Il preliminary hearing there, ana
were taken for safe keeping to this clt!'
where. they are being held for the spring
term of Superior Court III Currltuck
county. which is scheduled TO convene
March 1St Their case is the first on
the docket. and the boys say that when
they are brought up for trial, the peo-
nle of this section will be given one OF
the biggest sensations IN the hlStor! oi
the criminal courts of North 'aroilha.
They fail to indicate the nature OF the
sensation Their attorneys are Judge
7. s. Barron of Norfolk, and Meeklns
and Mcmillan of this city. The boys
were brought to Elizabeth City because
| feeling was running high in CurrltucR
and trouble was feared.
The four alleged desperadoes are
James Pope Nixon. "a years Old L. "
Pennington. just 10, Edward farr, =
veare of age, and w. Il. Saunders, aset
20 wears. Perhaps the most picture
soue member of the quartette Is MlAoh
who claims that he was formerly re
norter on the staff of the Brooklyn Ea
gle. one of the largest and most mfiu
antiaI dailies in the East, .and that in
.identally he was for some time NOV
lie actor in the Fitagraph studios
Rrooklvn. He says that he has serVe'
min wears in the United State navy
heing for three years heavyweight boX
ing champion of the navy; that he wa
tornedond twice during the world war
and that he is a member of promlnen
Louisiana family owning thousands Q
acres of valuable oil land in that State
In commenting on his arrest and lmprls
onment. he stated to a reporter OF tn
newspaper: "When you take out til
sunshine and put in the 'moonshln
: something usually happens.''
Edward Parr. also of the bunch, say
that he. too. is an ex-servlce man. LIZ
father of Parr has lor IL years bee
superintendent of the Norfolk city nom
r and is said to be we'll known and high
respectpd sin that city. L. w. Pennin'
ron. who has passed his 10Th birthds
:. since he became a temporary reslde1
of Elizabeth City, has nothing whatev'
, to say concerning himself. He was TO
r merly a resident of Columbia, Tyre
= county. w. T. Saunders, the fourth,
: 20 years old, and married. He is tt
- third ex-service man of the crowd, al
s. likewise has little to say about his pa
i life. Taken all in all, the appearance
= the four alleged desperadoes does n
mark them as being other than avera
Young men, \and/ this fact, together wi
the evident youthfulness of them
], might count to a degree in their fav
l. at their trial in Currituck but for
, -
desperate nature of their crimes

his own IDEAS about how Il town should

FIGHT STARTS OVER
$5O,OOO,OOO ESTATE

Salem, Mass, Oct. THE legal
battle for the millions of Edward f.
Searles, the recluse millionaire of Me-
thuen and New York, who died re-
Gently, was opened in the probate court
here yesterday. It was indicated the
attempt by Victor Albert Searles. n
Boston artist, who was a nephew of
the testator, would be based on a CON
tention that the aged millionaire was
not fit physically or mentally at the
time the will was drawn to understand
or to make such an intricate instru-
ment as that offered for probate.
BY this will, Arthur T. Walker of
New York, clerk, was made residuary
legatee of the estate. which is estimat-
ed at between $3O,O0O,OOO and $780,
100000, and the nephew was left $780,
600. Victor Albert Searles has already
forfeited this legacy.
