Three Months For Taking Chicks
Magistrate Bennett fines Joseph Hoffner three months in the Maryland House of Correction for larceny after leaving Mrs. Famous’s farm and taking 175 young chicks valued at 24.50 plus feed. Hoffner faced a possible bigamy warrant, while other local cases include Richard M. Sharret found not guilty of reckless driving and Margaret Louise Boyce Smith fined 15 dollars after pleading guilty to resisting arrest and disturbing the peace.
