Browns, accomplices face bonds in calf theft case
Magistrate William M. Bower set $5,000 bonds for Mrs Brown and her husband on armed robbery and kidnapping charges. In Kingwood, magistrate Frank W. Pritt set $25,000 bonds after waiving preliminary hearing. Mrs Brown was released on $1,000 bond. The trio is accused of transferring veal calves from a truck to a Preston county field while the driver, Frank Lewis, was held in a car nearby. Lewis was later released on a lonely country road. The husband also confessed to a 1946 bank robbery in which 600,000 yen were stolen. Mitigating circumstances were cited for Mrs Brown’s light bond due to a four-month-old son.
