(Found Guilty On
Whiskey Charge,
Defendant Appeals
Dissatisfied with the verdict
reached by Judge W. W. Taylor in
Recorder's court on Monday morning,
Throdora Lockman, white man
charged with operating an automobile
while under the influence of
whikey, gave notice of appeal to the
higher tribunal and was placed
under bond of $150 for his appearance
at the September term of Superior
court.
Lockman was brought into the
Temple of Justice as the aftermath
of an automobile accident which
occurred Saturday night, May 30,
while riding on the old Macon road
with Mrs. Ella Ellis. As the couple
sped along the old road the car
landed in a ditch, turning part the
way over afRJ "pinning Mrs. Ellis
beneath the running board. Neither
of the occupants was seriously injured.
Shortly alter it naa Deen reported
at Warrenton that the car had
turned over and some people were
in need of help; Night Policeman
E. C. Lovell, Chief of Police M. M.
Drake and Magistrate Macy Pridgen
drove to the scene to render
assistance. Arriving there they
found Mrs. Ellis pinned beneath the
vehicle and Lockman in a groggy
state of mind, according to evidence
given in court on Monday morning.
Chief Drake said that when he
reached the scene of the accident,
Lockman was sitting in the car
drunk and Mrs. Ellis was beneath
it in a similar condition. Magistrate
Pridgen and Night Policeman Lovell
returned to town for help in removing
the car, Chief Drake said, but
while they were gone another car
came by with six passengers and
the overturned vehicle was lifted off
of Mrs. Ellis. Lockman was brought
to town and locked up when Mi-.
Pridgen and Mr. Lovell came for
assistance to remove the car.
Mrs. Ellis testified that she was
operating the automobile and that
all the blame was hers. She said
that Lockman was out with her to
teach her to shift the geats and
A,--i ? Jfhn fVirno

mile branch on the old Macon road
the car got from under her control.
A Mrs. Billings testified that Mrs.
Ellis was under the wheel when the
car left the store which she was
keeping for Mrs. Ellis but that she
did not know who was operating it
at the time it overturned. On cross
examination she testified that she
saw Lockman take a drink before
starting out with Mrs. Ellis to teach
her to shift gears. Andrew Smiley,
a witness for the state, testified that
he saw Lockman and Mrs. Ellis
riding together the night of the accident
and at that time Lockman
was driving. The defendant did not
testify in the action.
Pronouncing Lockman guilty of
the charge. Judge Taylor gave him
the minimum fine of $50 and costs
and suspended his driving privilege
for a period of 90 days. In the
event that he failed to pay his fine
and court costs he was sentenced to
serve on the roads for 60 days.
Lockman gave notice of appeal and
the case was set for Superior court.
Although this was the first week
that a session of Recorder's court
- t A J..n J.A
has been held since May it uue tui
the fact that Superior court has
been in session here for two weeks,
there was only one case on docket
for trial this week. j

visitors in Richmond last week.

Rehabilitation Farm
Ma3r Be Obtained By
Warren County
Warren county has a chance cf
> getting one of the Rehabilitation
I Farms which are being set up in
the state by the Federal Govern:
ment for the purpose of taking care
j of destitute families which are on
. relief roles and making them selfsupporting
in the future, it was
L learned yesterday from Jesse Gard,
ner, relief administrator for War\
ren county. I
Mr. Gardner said that ten of
; these farms are to bet set-up in
i North Carolina and according to
information that he had received
; from headquarters at Kaieign tne
. farms will be located in the coun.
ties that present the best proposi.
tion.
It is not known yet what kind of
> proposition the county of Warren
i will be in a position to offer, Mr.
' Gardner said, stating that he had
s just received his information in regard
to the establishment of these
( farms in North Carolina and that
f he had not had an opportunity to
take the matter up with the com
missioners or to discuss it with
many of the citizens of the county.
The government will finance the
farming colony, and it is possible
that the government would be willing
to pay something for the land,
1 but Mr. Gardner is inclined to believe
that most of the counties of
the state will be anxious to have
one of the farms and as an inducement
to the government will contribute
the land free of charge.
It is understood here that a track
of land of around 1000 acres or
more is desired for carrying on such
farming operations as the government
contemplates carrying on In
the state. The thought was expressed
that in the event one of the
farms is set up in this county and
livinor nn it become self-sup
U11VUV A* ?
porting, that the track could be
divided up into small farms and
sold to those who had been living
on it and had learned to gain a
livelihood for themselves.
Mr. Gardner said at present the
government was farming 125 fami1
lies through his office, not including
those who had received aid in
raising gardens from seed and
: other aid coming through his of-1
fice. He looked with favor upon
; the idea of putting all these inI
competent people in one section
i where they could be properly lopk-j
i ed after and instructed in farming j
by a suiiervisor, which, it is under-,
stood, the government will put in
, charge of the colonies wherever established.

Veteran John W. Allen of Warrenton
lias but one objection to

made by Mr. Allen here on Monday
i on the eve of departing with Mr.

"The trouble with Charue," Mr.
