Jury Could Not Reach Verdict in Parkis War Farm Suit
The Gordon Parkis jury failed to decide Saturday afternoon on whether Parkis owes Gordon $60 for farm work in Fredonia while Gordon was an inmate. Witnesses testified Gordon did manual labor, while Parkis argued he acted for Gordon’s best interests and noted Gordon’s spending habits. The jury deliberated briefly and could not agree. a new trial is planned. Also a Waterloo preacher endorses Dr Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin for dyspepsia and is selling it locally.
