(From the Creston Gazette.)
The trial jurors called for the August term of the district court in
this county appeared this afternoon at 1:30 when court convened and were
dismissed by District Judge Evans until 9:00 A. M. tomorrow.
Immediately after the dismissal of the jurors for the day the equity case
of Reid vs. Ternihan was taken up and at the time of this paper going to
press, was on trial before Judge Evans.
A number of jurors called for service this term asked to be excused from
duty and some were excused.
One juror, a man, asked to be excused.
“What are your reasons for wishing to be excused?” asked Judge Evans.
“I am needed at home,” the juror answered.
“Who did you leave at home?” the judge asked.
“My wife and—and—the hired man,” timidly replied the juror.
He was excused until Thursday morning.
