Levi Walters Cleared of Charge Made by Niece.

The ease of Clara Walters vs. Levi Walters, on a charge of paternity, was tried in Pulaski county the past week. The principals lived near Francesville and the plaintiff is a niece of the defendant. Two Rensselaer attorneys, W. H. Parkinson and J. A. Dunlap, were in the ease, Parkinson being for the defendant and Dunlap for the plaintiff. The case was tried in the Pulaski circuit court at Winamac before a jury, who returned a verdict for the defendant, who is a married man. The jury did not find a father for the plaintiff’s child, apparently going on the theory that it “just grew.”
