ACQUITTED
Fred Nicola who was charged by the coroner's jury with having caused the death of Zach Padgett by striking his horse and causing him to run off, was before Judge Bailey yesterday, but there was not sufficient evidence to support the charge and was discharged.

LOTS OF LUCRE -
When old man Zach Padgett was killed his people were very much surprised as well as hurt not to be able to find the money he claimed to have had. There was suspicion of foul play and search was instigated for the missing lucre. It was finally rewarded a few days ago by the finding of $2,670 in lots of $100 or so in various and sundry places, some in old cans, under rocks etc. It is thought that it was hid by one who hoped to get it unsuspected after the excitement over its loss had subsided.
