mended, however, since the present
sheriff and a deputy were related

He then called the attorneys to
the bar and announced that an un.
interested party would be placed
in charge OF the jury. This action,
he explained, was no reflection
upon the present sheriff and his
deputies, but was precaution.
The person to have charge of the
Jury during the trials, he said, must
be "level.headed."
More than 200 union miners Of
Pennsylvania were indicted in con.
pectlon with tho battle. The state
charges that these men gathered
at Avalla, Pa, marched across the
West Virginia line into Brooke
County, and attacked the nof.union

named 10 succeed his father the
day after the battle occurred.
Young Duyall took. part in the
