New Trial Sought for John C Parr in Swindling Case
John C Parr, found guilty of swindling operations, was sentenced to two to 14 years for perjury by Judge McCray. His attorneys filed a motion for a new trial. Parr had bought a drug store on East Washington Street from A M Calkins and shortly after sold it back. Flo placed a mortgage on the property and claimed it was unencumbered.
