Negro Under 500 Bond In Store Theft
A preliminary hearing before Judge Saxon P. Poyner bound Jasper Haddon over to the grand jury with a $500 bond for allegedly helping steal a cash register from a downtown store on June 21. Haddon was identified by a salesgirl as the man who entered with J. B. Peg Barnes, who later faced an assault to murder charge after a knife attack on store assistant manager Douglas Horne during the逃追捕. Barnes fled but was captured after a pursuer fired a birdshot. Horne was wounded in the throat. Barnes was captured and later jailed. The case stems from the cash register entry and about $16 taken.
