Defendants Warned in Local Hearings
Two local Negroes who threatened lives faced grim warnings from Magistrate Alton Y. Bennett. Harry Hall was jailed five days after a drunken plea to be locked up. David Brown received 25 days for peace disturbance. Sammy Thompson, a repeater, got a 60 day term with suspended sentence amid new charges. William Brightwell and Claude Gardner faced further jail terms on other charges. A York County suspect, William C. Gembell, held on $500 bond for larceny. Additional traffic fines were levied and a not guilty verdict returned for loitering.
