Jasper County Democrat, Volume 5, Number 49, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 14 March 1903 — MR. DOOLEY. [ARTICLE]
MR. DOOLEY.
Mr. Dooley, alias John Bowie editor of the Roee-Lawn-Thayer-Shelby-News-Review, was down from the north end Tuesday. Along last spring John acted as arbitrator in a dispute up in his bailiwick, and his decision was that one of the parties should have so much money from the other. This was paid to John but his man refused to abide by the decision and wouldn’t have the dough. Mr. Bowie deposited the money in the Rose Lawn bank subject to the man’s order, but he has never taken it. One day recently he called at John’s house and a dispute arose and the man beat the editor up quite badly. The assailant will settle with the state in the Newton circuit court.
