“yes, he did, he gave me 6 long

Mrs. PEGGY HAYNES of
4371 Saxon Drive in
Hephzibah, says the snow of
two weeks ago brought people
together. The snow prevented
her from going to work so she
and her little one were in the
front yard making a snowman
when her neighbor also came
out and they met for the first
time. Peggy said she spent two
and a half years in Germany,
but she never saw as much
snow at one time, as here in
Augusta.

19-year-old Gary L. Jones
of 2758 Royal Street has been
bound over to Superior Court
to stand trial for one charge of
rape, and two charges of armed
robbery.
One of these assaults has led
to the senseless killing of a
crippled 78-year-old
grandmother and the
unmerciful beating of her
“grandson. Serviceman Joseph
D. Byrne was shotgunned in
the October 29 armed robbery
at the Holiday Inn (according
to reports, Mr. Byrne has been
in intensive care at a local
hospital ever since.) However,
no one condones injustice with
sanity either and some of the
contradictions, unsurety, and
memory lapses at the Jones
hearing do not imply fairness.
Certainly extenuating
circumstances are prevalant in
the particular case that
certainly need clearing up.
This is not to say Gary L.
Jones is innocent or guilty,
that’s for the courts to decide.
My contention centers around
an identification by two
witnesses who invariably claim
their attacker had no beard or
moustache. Jones has both
moustache and goatee of a
growth impossibe to acquire in
the nine days of the alleged
assault and time of the hearing.
