Public Utility Damage Hearing Delayed for Legal Aid
In Common Pleas Court Salem two men John Miller and Willard Miller faced continued hearing on felony damaging public utilities after confessing petty larceny. Judge Bolin delayed again to Saturday to allow court appointed attorney access as the pair were held without bond. They had earlier pleaded guilty to petty larceny in Municipal Court and faced possible penalties up to three years and fines if convicted on the felony charge. The case arose from missing copper cable near Pomeroy and Little Hocking during the July weekend, with 150 feet of wire recovered from a cave. The judge cited reformatories as a concern in delaying proceedings.
