chronicled the fact that a young
man from Washington had been
fined 500 and costs for assaulting

not wish to be included in a group
picture which was to be taken."
The Washington man waited a
week, then journeyed to Etchison,
entered the schoolroom while school
was in session, gave the principal
a cowhiding, "then left, but re-
turned at the noon recess and again
attacked the teacher" When pass
ing sentence, the judge character
lied the assault as an outrage and
stated that If he were not the sole
support of his mother and sister
he would sentence him to a term
