ONE GAVE BOND, ONE DID NOT

Newton County Men File Charges Against One Another. James Parmley of near Enos, Newton county, was brought here Friday evening by Sheriff Spinney and placed in jail. On complaint of his son-in-law, Robert M. Neeves, with whom he lived, he was charged with incest, and after being arrested could not give bond Parmley had just previously filed an affidavit against Neeves for hitting him over the head with a shot gun and then shooting him, and he still carries several of the shot in his body. It appears that both men were drinking and got into a fight. Neeves used a gun and Parmley had him arrested for it. Neeves gave bond with M. E. Graves of Morocco as surety, and then charged parmley with having had illicit relations with Mrs. Neeves four years ago, and he was arrested. Being unable to give bond he was brought here to await trial.
