February 5. 1932," recovery of $lO,.
000 for Wimmer is nought. The

was committed under color of offise. |
The shooting of Wimmer and the !
fatal shooting of Leonard are alleg-'
ed to have followed a colloquy l>e. i

the automobile in which the sheriff
and E, T. Brlnkley, Lexington, at.'
torney, and George A. Younce, then
solicitor of the Twelfth Judicial 1
district, were traveling overturned '
