Arson Case Bound Over After Cocaine Influence
Perry Albert Little, arrested on arson charges, appeared in Perry Superior Court where Judge Shortley bound him over to the grand jury with a 3000 dollar bond. Little confessed to fire at Fred Osborne’s barn and blamed cocaine for his actions, noting he was sober only when not under the drug’s influence. The case ties him to several other barn fires in the north part of the city. In Tama County, a new church of the Progressive Brethren near Carlton is to be dedicated soon, costing 3500 dollars. Rev. N. W. Jennings of Pittsburgh will deliver the dedicatory sermon.
