BANDIT BOUND OVER
10 THE ERAND JURY
Solicitor Clay Wins First
Point. Judge Greer Set
Bond et £4OOO.
James Nolan, the man arrested in
Atlanta, and suspected of holding up
the N. C. and St. L. passenger train
about two weeks ago, was brought
to Marietta on Monday night and
given a preliminary hearing before
Judge B. V. Greer on Tuesday af
ternoon. His attorney waived exami
nation and asked that Nolan be al
lowed to give bond. Solicitor Gen
eral Clay did not object to bond but
asked that the sum be made large
enough to afford security for the
State. Nolan’s attorney argued that
the bond be made reasonable and
express the opinion that two thous
and dollars would be about right.
(Chas. H. Griffin, assisting Solicitor
General Clay, asked for the sum of
five thousand dollars with the result
that Judge Greer assessed the sum
of four thousand dollars. No effort
was made by the prisoner to make
the bond and he was taken back to
jail by deputy sheriff Hicks.
No witnesses were put up by eith
er side but each side declared its
ability to.substantiate its contention.
The State’s attorney’s declared
three witnesses would make positive
identification and the defense ar
gued that they could prove a posi
tive alibi.
Nolan will remain in jail in Mar
ietta until his case is tried. It will
be placed before the March Term
Grand Jury.
The men who were arrested in At
lanta last week are being held for
other crimes until Nolan can be giv
en an examination.
