Letter Which Caused $5,000 Libel Suitto BeFiled.
The following letter is responsible for the filing of a suit in the Jasper circuit court by Jacob Ochs, Jr., against Wm. Zimmerman damages: “Remington, Ind., Sept. 13, T 6. Jacob Ochsy-fe— ■—t ——— Sup. Rural Free Delivery, Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: As a preface to charges I wash to make against one of your employes, I beg to say that on Oct. 3, 1914, I was appointed deputy marshal of the town of Remington. When I took office there were three- or four wide open gambling houses and as much drunkenness as in any town of its size in the state. Since my appointment these gambling-houses have been closed, the keepers fined and all drunks have been taken care of, in fact a’total of 48 men have been fined. On the following paper I wish to state my complaint. I wish to complain against the stand taken in these troubles by one Jacob Ochs, R. R. carrier on R. 2. Mr. Oaks is very violent and insult—law. 2. Mr. Ochs publicly boasted of the money he won gambling. 3. A search of Mr. Ochs’ premises will usually reveal a barrel of beer in bottles. I have seen Mr. Ochs go jntg these gambling houses at 11 p. m. with all the bottles of beer he could carry. What he did with it there I dp not know. 44. Mr. Ochs joins auto parties to Lafayette and returns at midnight, the worse for drink. 5. Mr. Ochs works for the government from 8 a. m. until 12 noon; from ( 1 p. m. until midnight he can usually be found in some bam or pool hall playing cards. Mr. Ochs visits every and there are several. Now I don’t know anything about ,your department and have no suggestions to make but I do thinks a government employe should be a good citizen. • I wish to state further that I would cheerfully take oath that every word of the above statement is true. .►— Yours respectfully, - Wm. Zimmerman. Order your calling card* uere.
