The La Cygne Weekly Journal Linn County Saturday December 3, 1881 Some time ago Harry B. MILLER, missed a cow and did not know what had become of her. Subsequently while in the neighborhood of New Lancaster he espied the animal on the premises of P. JACKSON. Inquiring into the matter he found that Mr. Jackson had purchased her from George FAULKNER, a boy under twenty years of age, who lived with his father and brothers in this township. Mr. Miller obtained possession of the cow and had young Faulkner arrested on the charge of stealing. His preliminary examination was set for Monday, Thomas J. Faulkner and his son Alexander R., becoming bondsmen for George in the sum of $300. Monday morning the case was called by Justice J.V. DONALDSON, but the defendent had jumped his bail and consquently failed to appear. The bondsmen promptly paid the $300, which goes into the county treasury.
