BRACKEN GRAND
JURY REFUSES TO IN.
DICT MAYSVILLE man
sKirk" Stlckley Is Released BY Brack-
en- County Grand Jury When Seri-
GUS Charges Made Against
Him Are Unwarranted.

Lycurges ]. Stickley, local painter
and paper hanger, arrived in Mays
vills> Tuesday, evening from Brooks
Vile where he had been confined in
the Bracken county Jail for the past
two months awaiting hearing before
the grand jury Of that county on a
most serious charge supposed to have
been made by little girl.
After thorough investigation of
the charge against the Maysville man,
the Bracken county grand jury re-
fused to bring an indictment against
him and dismissed him. 1t Is learned
that there was no foundation in fact
for the charges against Mr.. Stickley
who always heretofore has been a
most exemplary gentleman in his
home city.
At the time of the charge being
made, Mr.. Stickley's many friends re.
fused to believe MIN guilty OF SO serl'
Gus a charge and the only thing done
to shake their faith in him was his
leaving this section. He says, how
ever, that he was frightened by re-
ports brought to him of the feeling
against him in Bracken county. HI
says he never at any time feared
trial on the charge and would hav'
surrendered himself for trial but To-
the rumors he received from Brackel
county.
Mr.. Stickley says he was treated IL
a splendid manner by the Brackei
county authorities during his incar
ceration.
