Miller and Goodman cases in Mayor's Court end in dismissals
In the Mayor's Court yesterday Dr. Miller faced a charge of running a show without a license and S Goodman for interference. Miller's case was dismissed after testimony suggested a revenue dispute. Goodman’s case was also dismissed as the resistance did not meet legal criteria. The proceeding lasted about two hours. Also, Deputy Sheriff Carmine received a wanted circular for a black suspect in Kaufman Texas offering a $100 reward. A man matching the description appeared in Huntersville and was arrested and jailed pending further authority.

The North Carolina crop bulletin reports little change in conditions with drought lingering in many areas as rain failed to distribute well. Cotton is largely past improvement while corn and hay show mixed yields.
