Massey to Push Walker's Case in County Clash
Liberil L. OC Massey will press County Commissioner Henry A Walter to return to the county treasury funds the sheriff alleges were overcharged for county prisoners between 1929 and 1924. A suit for 91 143 was filed after claims of rehanging feeding costs for released prisoners. The sheriff later settled by paying one third of 4142 to the court. The Walker case was dismissed after the plaintiff’s attorneys failed to file a declaration. Massey did not rule out renewing the suit and will confer with his counsel. The dispute widens political feuding within the Republican ranks.
