Being Ridley Released

Some excitement was furnished this
morning at police court when a large
colored man was brought in by Off
Ger Joe Hawkins from a nearby bar
ber shop thought to be Joe Ridley
wanted for shooting Jim Bridges now
in the City hospital. The man was
questioned closely as he wore the
same clothes reported to have been
on the back Of the negro when he
escaped. A card bearing the name
w. L. Slother was exhibited by the
colored man while he, denied ever
carrying a gun or knowing anything
about the shooting.
Someone reported to Hawkins thai
this person had gun. He kept one
hand in his poke. and appeared sus.
picious so Hawkins approached him
and asked to see the hand. Chief
Moran searched him thoroughly ant
feeling sure the man was the wrong
party he was released, The negro
was very good natured about the mat,
ter and claimed to be from Point Ma.
rion where he worked.
