COTTON CROP ABOUT
FORTY PERCENT GATHERED

In making the rounds for news,
several farmers from over the coun-
~ were interviewed and the general
opinion from each is that the cotton
crop of the county could not all be
rafhared and marketed for another
month, or much before the first Of
December. allowing for the present
weather conditions 70 continue, which
has been an ideal fall for the cotton
farmer.
The Yield is much better than
It was thought TO be at the beginning
of the season, being estimated now,
with only about 40 per cent marketed
that the average yield throughout the
county will be at least one-third Of
a bale per acre. The staple is said
% be the best in the state. Pickers
are plentiful and farmers having no
trouble in getting il gathered.

Last Norfleet
Swindler Brought
To Justice Sat.
Here's Mr.. Hamlin. ="

ntTth MI. ihTuiln.
II was j. Frank Norfleet Of Hale
Center. Texas, speaking. Beside him
was a prisoner-Reno Hamlin.
Just like he brought back Joe
Furey from Jacksonville, Fla, Nor
fleet came into Sheriff Smiths office
Saturday afternoon with Hamlin, al
legged accomplice in the fake stock
market scheme in which Norfleet lost
1000.
Tarrant County officers practical
ly had given up hope Of having Ham
| lin brought here from Oklahoma City
where he was arrested, until after he
had faced similar charges in Allan
Ia, Georgia officers offered 500
reward for Hamlin, while there was
no reward from this county.
As soon as Norfleet got news Of
Hamlin's arrest he took the first
train to Oklahoma City. He identi-
fled Hamlin, but he didn't stop his
negotiations until he had procured
Hamlin's release.
Not So Spectacular.
Just as Norfleet was the captor Of
Joe Furey, ringleader Of the swind-
lie, he caused Hamlin's apprehension,
although the arrest Of the latter was
not as spectacular as Furey's cap
ture,
Norfleet devoted months to the
Furey search. Having lost his mon
ey, he toured fourteen States and
went into Mexico searching for the
man who had tricked him. In a gun
play at Jacksonville, Furey failed TO
escape. He later made a leap from
fast moving train, but was recaught
and brought here.
Recently Norfleet heard that Ham
lin was in Oklahoma City. He OBJ
tanned photos Of the man for identi-
fication purposes. He Hamlin's pho
TO TO Flynn formerly sheriff in
Lubbock County, but who since
has been made police official Of
Oklahoma City. Norfleet sent the
request that he watch for Hamlin.
A few days ago Hamlin was ar
rested on a misdemeanor charge.
Flynn identified him by his picture
and wired for Norfleet. Flynn ac-
companied Norfleet and the prisoner
TO the Tarrant County jail. Their
arrival was a surprise TO officers here.
Hamlin insisted on every word Of
I the indictment being read when Dep
uty Sheriff Jim Hardcastle took
/ charge Of him here
"And your bond has been set AT
/ $4,000" Hardcastle said 20 him.
/ Hamlin gasped at the large bond.
The bail is one Of the largest set in
I criminal case here in months.
/ With Hamlin's arrest, four Of the
men who are supposed 20 have ne
gotiated the stock market swindle
have been brought 10 Justice
I +. j. Ward and Charles Gerber
were the first TO be convicted Of the
offense. They got ten years each.
Gerber went to the State peniten-
tiary. Ward, transferred to Wash
ington on a similar charge, killed
himself
Then came the arrest Of Furey. He
pleaded guilty in two cases and got
ten years each. Judge Hosey re-
fused TO run the sentences concur
rently, giving him total Of twenty
years.

here. His trial probably will take
