MOORE COUNTY RECORDER'S COURT
Failure To Pay Off on Mortgaged
Crop Lands Tenant Farmer in Court
on charges preferred by J. K. Rea,
III, pre..ident of the Carthage
Junior Chamber of Commerce,
who said Denning drove through
a gate, smashing it, into the fair
grounds during the Jaycee-spon-
sored county fair, and then drove
A tenant farmer, who mortgag
ed his crop to get his farm sup
plies, then failed to pay off when
the crop was sold, faced Judge
J. Vance Rowe in Moore County
Recorder’s Court Monday on a
charge of unlawfully disposing of
mortgaged property.
R. L. Newman, 43, of Carthage
muttered, “I just couldn t sell for
enough to pay out,” as his only
defense. He was not represented
by counsel.
Roy Burt of the Carthage
Farmers Supply said Newman
had executed the chattel mort
gage for more than $200 last June
on the tobacco, corn, watermelons
and sweet potatoes he was rais
ing on the farm of S. S. Crissman.
Later difficulties arose between
Newman and his landlord and it
looked as though the tobacco
wouldn’t get harvested. To help
the man out and get the debt
paid, Burt said he had part of
the crop harvested for him, and
even took a load to market and
sold it for him, while lending him
extra money when his wife was
in the hospital. The debt was
never paid.
Judge Rowe, a veteran farmer
himself, spoke with sympathy to
the defendant, noting that “It’s
hard to make a living farming
these days. Everything costs too
much. When you have nothing to
start with and so much is neeued,
it’s a hard situation.
“But it’s no crime to be poor
and not have anything. It’s hard
but no crime as long as you act
honestly toward others. It looks
to me as though Mr. Burt tried to
help you all he could but you
didn’t play fair.
“It is the painful duty of this
court to find you guilty.
The defendant was sentenced
to 90 days on the roads, suspend-
pended on payment of $100, the
debt of $208.39, plus costs of the
court action. He was allowed to
pay off the balance at the rate of
$20 per week, starting January
10.
Two Negro defendants arrested
in non-fatal shootings in tbs Vass
area over the Thanksgiving week
end were in court, both charged
v/ith assault with deadly weapon
(shotgun). Both pleaded not guil
ty. Alton McCrimmon of Vass,
Route 2, drew four months sus
pended for two years on payment
of $100 and costs and on condi
tion he commit no similar crime,
for the shooting of Herbert
Thomas Thanksgiving Day in Lit
tle River township. Willie Mc
Allister of Vass was released
when a motion for non-suit was
allowed in the shooting of his sis
ter, Glossie Mae Pollard, in the
kitchen of her home during a fam
ily argument the day, after
Thanksgiving.
A Carthage youth, George Eld-
ridge Denning, was found guilty
through the crowds in the en
closure in a careless and reckless
manner. In addition to the charges
of trespass and of careless and
reckless driving, Denning was
charged with speeding in another
".ase. On both counts, consolidated
for judgment, he drew 60 days
suspended for 12 months on pay
ment of $50 and costs, not to drive
for 60 days and not to violate the
speed or reckless-driving laws
during the 12-months period.
Junior Jordan, 18-year-old Rob
bins youth who had been in court
before for assaulting members of
his family, was back Monday un
der another charge of assault on
his mother, also disorderly con-
auct. Found guilty of contempt,
the youth was sent to Moore
County jail for the next 30 days,
with the charges against him
continued until this sentence has
been served.
James Robinson, Negro, of Rob
bins, Route 2, charged by Don
Brower with larceny of $300
worth of household goods and
personal belongings, was releas
ed when no probable cause was
found.
