Court overruled as to ANDERSON and ESTES, but discharged HUTCHINSON and admitted the other two to bail in the sum of $500 each, which was readily given without trouble. Defense then asked for continuance, which was granted to Jan. 28th. The four remaining defendants, B. ORNER, J.LEACH, Rounds CHASE and Sam MINTON, are kept here in Liberal under the care of Sheriff GUYMON and deputies and are boarded at the Rock Island Hotel. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/seward/newspapers/justiceg238nw.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.5 Kb
