The COURIER has been informed by

He was arrested Monday morning by |
Constable Evans of Ebensburg.
The prosecutors allege that Nov. 13,
1905, they were summoned to Ebens-
burg, as witnesses in a case. Jackson
was supposed to draw their costs for
them, it is alleged. When they went
to him for the money, it is alleged he
told them that he had not received it.
When they went to the commissioners’
office they found that the money had
been drawn by Jackson. The charge
of perjury followed.
