was sentenced by the court to pay a
fine of '*200 and to serve four months
imprisonment. The defendant began
to bemoan his "little farm."
"Sure, and there will be nobody to

phasized the fact that Mike had been
up in the courts for similar offenses
three times and had been found on the

"It is peculiar that an old man like
you should come repeatedly before

have always been fnll of promises to

The defendant agaiji said someone

would let jhim go he would leave the
country and go to a brother in Ohio.
Asked what he had on his 'far-r-rm'
Tobin said he had an acre of potatoes,

court was not satisfied and told him
