DODGES PISTON RING.

A fine of $25 and costs was impos-
ed upon Edward G. Butler, of Mount
Airy. on an assault and battery
charge preferred by James E. Solt, OF
Frederick. The hearing was held be-
fore Justice J. Grahame Johnson,
Frederick, Friday morning. The trou-
BILE occurred at Solt's Garage on No
vember %. An appeal from the decis-
ion was taken by the counsel for the
defendant The original warrant
charged Butler with assault with in
tent to KILL" but was later amended
to read assault and battery.
The testimony of the various wit
nesses was conflicting in every detail.
Both men used profane language and
each called the other "a dirty liar
but the testimony on this point varied.
William Solt and Emory Leatherman
both testified that Butler called SOlt
a liar first while Butler stated that
he used no profant language until
after SOlt had cursed him. Mrs. But
Ter testified that Solt called her hus-
band vile name when the two men
were standing near the machine on
the outside of the garage.
The testimony showed that Butler
had brought n casting to the repair
shop to be welded and the contention
arose over the question whether
the casting had been burned. Solt
contended that it was impossible to
do the work while Butler testified
that he >.maintained that the casting
could be welded. Harsh words fol-
lowed and the two men called each
other liars"
Butler said he then went out of the
door into the passage-way lead
ing into the garage and when
near the car a heavy piston was
thrown at him which struck the wall
and rebounded Mrs. Butler also tes-
tilted TO this effect Butler said that
Solt ran and picked up the piston and
then struck at him the second time.
Butler lodged the blow but the piston
struck him on the back of the should
er. Dr. A T. Cronk, of Mt. Airy, stated
that Butler came to his Office the day
after the trouble and received medi-
cal attention for a bruise on his left
shoulder. The doctor stated that to the
best of his Judgment the bruise was
caused from a blow with blunt in
strument.
Mrs. Butler stated that Solt, after
throwing the piston at her husband
picked I'D the heavy piece of steel
and swung the second time, striking
Butler on the back of the shoulder.
BTtler then hit Solt on top of the
head with one of the pieces of the
broken casting he was carrying. Ac-
cording to the testimony of the de-
fense, both Butler and his wife went
back into the garage to ascertain if
they could be of any assistance to the
injured man. Fhen then left the gar
age in their machine.
States's Attorney Aaron A. Anders
and Samuel a. Lewis. were attorneys
for the plaintiff. while Alban NJ. Wood
and Guv w. Steele, of Westminster,
represented Butler.
