Charges Are
Reduced In
Brown Case

Charges of assault with in
tent to commit rape, which had
been brought against Chester
Hollister Brown, Roanoke Rap
ids produce dealer by Frances
Aston, Littleton Negro girl, were
dismissed in hearing here last
night before Magistrate W.. o.
Thompson.
Brown, however, was charged
with assault on a female and
the case was pound over to tn
November 9 term of Halifax
County recorders court in Hal
flax. Brown, who had been in
the local Jail since his arrest
here Tuesday afternoon, had the
$1,000 bond under which he had
been jailed reduced to $1,000 on
the lesser charge.
Magistrate Thompson, after
hearing evidence presented by
the Aston girl and a Negro man
who said he had come into the
Littleton store about the time of
the alleged assault, ruled that
the evidence as to the rape at
tempt was not sufficient to bear
out the charge. He said, how
ever, that there was probable
cause for an assault on a fe-
male charge from the evidence
heard here last night.
Brown was represented by the
firms of Allsbrcok and Benton
and Crew and Crew.
In swearing out the warrant
for Browns arrest, Frances Al
ston, 81, had told Magistrate j.
w. Harvey of Littleton that
Brown had come into her uncle's
place of business on the outskirt
Of Littleton where she was tend
ing the store and had made i'm
proper advances.
The Roanoke Rapids man, who
is in the produce dealer with
his brother, denied the charges
levied against him from the time
he was first taken into custody
by the Roanoke Rapids police.
This morning police officials
said he was still in the local
Jail pending the posting of the
required bond in the misdem-
eanor charge.
