Mercer County Magistrate hear cases including theft charges

Chief Mercer County Magistrate Ernest R. Six heard multiple cases. Joseph Borick Jr and David Alan Schulte, both of Bluefield and Princeton respectively, faced break in and transferring stolen goods charges tied to Austin Powder. Bonds set at 6000 and 3000 dollars, with trooper Adams and Belcher as arresting officers. Several shoplifting and worthless check cases resulted in dismissals after payments of amounts plus costs. Other defendants faced guilty pleas for defective equipment and minor releases on bond. The West Virginia University Foundation received 2622536 dollars in private gifts during 1980, including 137800 from a Florida estate and 171000 in stock from Morgantown sources.
