Mr. Chirgwin left Townsend on Monday afternoon for Raders- burg at 2:15, going direct to Mr. pen Smith's ranch. Before enter- ing the house, he watered and fed his horse and put in the barn. This was at 445 p. m., at 7:00 he drove up again to church and tied his horse at 7:20 in the most sheltered spot of the town. It was covered with a blanket,which weighed 12% lbs., more than dou- ble the weight of any ordinary horse blanket. As soon as Mr. Chirgwin pronounced the bens- dietiop in the church he was ar- rested by the deputy sheriff, this being at 9 o'clock. The horse had already been taken away and put in a arn. Mr. Chirgwin, thinkieg this was a joke, moved over to the stove to get warm, hut he was again told that it was real business. He was then taken before the Justice of the Peace, who asked for $100 bond and while one man in particular offered to put up a $1,000 bond for the -minister, he declared his innocence and consented to be taken to jail. The temperature at this time was 6 above. At 12 o'clock that night the deputy sheriff felt he was not doingright in keeping the minister in a cold jail all night on such a charge, therefore, took him into his own home. The trial came off Tues- day evening before Justice Par- ker and the following jurors: Thomas Williams, Winslow Wil- liams, B. Williams, Virgil Patter- son, -Jas. Wood, Sr. and J. C. Blacker, Sr. Lawyer Schmitz, of Townsend; defended the minister and Chas. Cotter, county attor- ney, represented the state. Mr. C. R. Stevenson was first to take the witness stand and in a very few words said that he did not know but that the horse had beeu tierrthere since Mr. Chirg- win arrived in town in the after- noon up to the time that he made the complaint, showing positively that Mr. Stevenson had not learned the facts :of the case before arresting the minis- ter, who has a good character in this state. Dr. Holgate testified positively that the horse when it arrived in Radersburg in the afternoen 'from' Townsend was as dry di/could be and that Mr. Chirgwia is a man that is excep- .tionally careful of his horse.
