GRAND JURY REPORT
SUBMITTED MONDAY
(Continued from page one).
commended,for “the fine work he is
doing” as chairman and as County
Warden.
The grand jury recommends that
the Sheriff and other law enforce
ment officers strictly enforce the
vagrancy laws and see that every
able-bodied man “go to work, go to
war or go to jail.”
Judge Crow’s reference in his
charge last week to strikes in essen
tial war industries drew from the
grand jury a recommendation to the
two Georgia Senators and the Con
gressman from this district that they
lend their support to legislation
seeking to curb strikes, absenteeism
or any slowing up of the war effort.
The grand jury also elected four
Notaries Public and ex-officio Jus
tices of the Peace and two members
of the County Board of Education.
Henry Hester, Sr. was elected to
succeed S. P. Cain on the County
Board of Education and G. B. Tru
lock was named to succeed himself.
When the criminal docket was
sounded Monday the first pleas of
guilty w r ere those of John Thomas
and James Powell, Negroes, charged
with the theft of a truck belonging
to Rufus Harper, a well-known far
mer, here back in May, 1941. They
were sentenced to serve three to
four years, each, in the penitentiary.
They were both returned here re
cently by Sheriff Strickland from
Florida, where they had completed
serving sentences for breaking into
j a filling station at Live Oak soon
after the truck was stolen here.
Dave Youmas, 43, a Negro, charg
ed with first-degree murder as a
j result of the fatal shooting of his
; wife, Carrie, 40, at their home on
the S. P. Perkins farm last Nov.
14th, was about to go on trial when
defense counsel reached an agree
| ment with Solicitor-General Maston
O’Neal, of Bainbridge, for a plea
of guilty to a charge of voluntary
manslaughter, which was entered.
Judge Crow sentenced Youmas to
i serve five to six years in the pen
‘
front of the American line in Tu
nisia. Their leader in the_ rear is
Pvt. Andrew S. Pogedince, of Pitts
burgh, Pa.
THE CAIRO MESSENGER. FRIDAY. MARCH 12TH, 1943.
itentiary.
Evie Scott, another Negro, had
been charged with assault with in
tent to murder in a warrant as a
result of a crash involving a log
truck owned and driven by him
and a wagon driven and occupied
by C. King Brinson, a well-known
!aimer, last Nov. 2ith on State
Route 93 about 2 1-2 miles north
of Cairo. Mr. Brinson sustained a
fractured leg and collar bone as
well as a skull injury in the crash
but has been able to be out. again,
after treatment for several days at
Cairo Hospital. The grand jury re
turned a “no bill” on the warrant
charge and indicted Scott for
ating a motor vehicle without ser
viceable brakes. A jury was drawn
to try the case when the Solicitor
General found that it would be nec
essary to nol prosse the case.
Mergy Jenkins was indicted on
two charges, burglary and public
drunkenness, but the Solicitor found
it would be necessary to nol prosse
the burglary case and the defendant
entered charge. a He plea of guilty to the other j s
was sentenced to serve
a year on the public works and six'
months in jail, to be served on pro-j
bation on payment of a $40 fine.
J. E. Connell, indicted for carry-!
ing a pistol concealed, entered
plea ^of guilty. He was sentenced to j
serve 18 months on the public
works, to be served on probation
upon payment of a $50 fine. Under
the terms of his probation sentence,
however, he was ordered to turn
his pistol over to the Sheriff, his li
cense to carry a pistol was revoked
and he cannot own or have in his
possession either a pistol or a pock
et knife during the 18-months per
iod. He was told, also, that if he
takes even one drink of any intox
icating beverage during the term of
his probation he must serve the re- j
mainder of the time on the public
works.
The remaining criminal case % is
that charging Marshall T. Burney,
of Macon, with bigamy. He is al
leged to have married in this coun
ty but it is understood the wife he
married here was not from this
county. A motion was made for
continuance of the case for the term
on a showing that the defendant
was in a hospital in Macon Monday j
undergoing treatment for a strep- j
tococcic throat. Judge Crow over- ;
ruled the motion for continuance i
and ordered issued a new bench
warrant for the defendant to be
brought before him by Sheriff
Strickland as soon as he becomes I
able to leave the hospital. Trial of
his case here today, Friday, was
entioned as a possibility. Arthur G.
Lewis, of Macon, is chief counsel for
the defendant but he has associated
R. A. Bell, of Cairo, in the defense.
