SMITH DENIES INTET TO
DEFRAUD
Charged With Obtaining Mon
CIV Under False PretenSe

Harry H. Smith, Rising Sun
Md, live stock dealer, denied
on the witness stand in Rock
ingham Circuit Court, Harri-
sonburg, Va, on Monday, that
he had any intention of de-
frauding Hirsch Brothers and
S. F. Topping, of Harrison
burg, out of $3,112 for a car
load of milk COWS which he
purchased in that locality last
November and has been unable
to pay for.
The two checks Smith ten
dered in payment for the COWS
were returned by the Cecil
National Bank, of Port Deposit,
Md, because of insufficient
funds in the Smith account.
Smith admitted on the stand
that he owes the Harrisonburg
dealers $1,000 for the carload
of cows, which he has been I'M
able to pay because of unfavor-
able business conditions. He
testified that he has been deal
ing with Hirsch and Topping
for more than a year and al
ways rendered pre-dated checks
in payment of the cows he pur-
chased there. He said that he
has done approximately $4,000
worth of business with those
dealers over this period.
Smith was indicted last De-
cember for violation of the Vir-
ginia Bad Check law, but these
indictments were nolle pressed
and Smith reindicted on two
counts of obtaining money I'M
der false pretenses.

FOREST FIRES RAGE
Hundrers OF Acres Are Burned
Over In Different Sections

|
Forest fires have been of al
most daily occurrence in var
lious sections of our county thu
past two weeks, as well al
throughout the country, raging
over large areas and causing
great loss. The continued dry
weather has made woods anG
field like finder, needing only
some smoker with the deadly
cigarette, or some other care
lessness, to start cOnaagra-
ton.
The Community Fire Co. of
Rising Sun was called to
Haines Station, across the line
in Pennsylvania, Sunday after
noon, to fight woods fire that
was caused by cigarette toss
ed from an auto into the dry
leaves and grass at the road
side. A large area was burned
over before the firemen reach
ed the scene and checked fur
ter spread by back-firing.
Again on Monday afternoon
the firemen were called across
the line, into Pennsylvania,
where the burning out of fence
rows on the Frank Scotch
farm, was the cause of a fire.
The high wind whipped the fire
out of control soon after it was
started, and the Community
Fire Co. was called, and after a
hard fight prevented it's further
spread.
Fires have ragged in Elk Neck
section requiring lage numbers
to fight them, between 600 and
700 acres of woodland being
burned.
About 400 acres in the Sec
ton of Childs, Leeds and Union
were swept by forest fire.
A large area along the 3. &
o. railroad in the Leslie Sec
ton was burned over.
Another section visited by
forest fires was Plum Point,
along the Elk river.
