Two vagrants from Chicago face jail or exile for westward escape
Eddie Graham and A B Cowling, two dark skinned men, were arrested by the sheriff after entering several houses west of the city and frightening farm women. They faced vagrancy charges in front of Justice Shute, who ordered a fine of 90 dollars or 30 days in jail, but suspended the sentence if the pair left town within an hour. As the hearing ended, one suspect grabbed his shoes and fled, shouting goodbye as the other followed westward, hoping to avoid custody.
