Carey Pleads Guilty After Mistrial In Liquor Case
In Americus a mistrial delayed verdict in the furnishing liquor to a minor case. A. B. Carey, taxi driver, pleaded guilty in Superior court through his attorney on agreed terms to drop two other indictments, receiving eight months on the chain gang or a $100 fine, paid by counsel. The jurors had disagreed after a student accusation and Carey denied supplying liquor, claiming the boys paid him to drive them to Wheatley property where liquor was consumed. Additional cases included Herndon liquor charges and Frances Lee Morgan assault verdicts.

In Superior Court Wednesday, McArthur was discharged after a juror became involved in the case. Bowdin of Macon faced a similar outcome in a peace case. The express shipment theft indictments were unclear as the needed evidence from the Express company was absent.
