WHOLLY insufficient
Proof To Sustain
Contempt Charge" Says
States Highest Court
Reprinted from Jackson Dolly News

Reprinted from Jackson Dolly News
Miss Hazel Brannon, courageous
Holmes county newspaperwoman,
won full exoneration from Holmes
circuit court charge of contempt in
decision handed down Monday by
the Mississippi Supreme Court. The
court reversed the Holmes circuit
court an6 o~1ered her immediate re-

trial last October of five Holmes CO.
