Innd jury at Rome by mean, of a de
toy prisoner, who managed to get him'
pelf arrested and locked In the Atlanta
nitre station and was then bought out
ly an agent of the concern now under

Company. The evidence further show

The Atlanta witnesses were unable to
throw any tight on the question at

unusual Interest Is being heard In civil
court here this week, n suit against the

and asked that tho man bo removed:
that Hie conductor refused to take
tlon, and that soon thereafter the ob
jectionable individual placed ills arm
around her nnd proceeded to annoy hor,
alleging finally that the outcome of
the excitement occasioned by tho man's
action caused her untold physical nnd
mental agony.
The first trial of the suit was heard
In Greenville Just a year ago, when
Mrs. Franklin was awarded damages
to the extent of $25,000. The attorneys
for the railroad appealed the case to
flic supremo court and that tribunal
has sent the case back on a writ of er
ror to be heard again.here.
There are more than a half hundred
witnesses in the cose, including two
physicians from Atlanta.
Mrs. Franklin is the wife of a mem
ber of the police force in Newberry.
