GOING OYER THE TOP
EFFORTS TO SURPASS THE QUOTA
IN LIBERTY BONDS.
Committees and Individuals Hard
At Work and Results Are
Very Encouraging.
All efforts are being exerted in an
endeavor to reach the county’s allotment
in the sale of Liberty Bonds and to sui-
pass that amount if possible. The banks
of the county, ladies committee in Gold-
thwaite, Boy Scouts of Goldthwaite,
committees and individuals in the various
c*MHM»ities m the county are working
BBceasiagly and it can be stated with
certainty that all who will or can buy
one or more bonds will be given an
opportunity to do so and it is not be-
lieved a ‘ slacker” will be found.
The Eagle hoped to be able to give a
list of the bond buyers this week, but
has been unable to secure a complete
and correct list. We have, therefore,
decided to wait until the next issue to
make the publication. Those who have
lists of bond purchasers in any part of
the county are urged to send a copy to
this office as early in the week as possi-
ble, in order that the information may be
given and the public may know the
names of the bond buyers and the
ameuat sold in the county.
Meetings are yet to be held in some
of the communities and where such
meetings have been held the results have
been highly satisfactory. A meeting
was to have been held at Bethel Thursday
night, but on account of the stormy
weather it was postponed until next for sorneithmg to read.
Thursday night.
The Santa Fe railroad employes are
100 per cent bond buyers, Every mem-
ber of the depot force at this place ind
every section man at Goldthwaite and
Scallorn bought one or more bonds. No
report has been received here from Mul-
lin, but it is supposed the same condition
exists at that place.
Among the most successful sellers of
bonds are the Boy Scouts, who reported
the sale of $6200 up to yesterday morn-
ing and they are still busy.

Weatherby Acquitted
The trial of J. N, Weatherby, chargod
with killing Ross Dean in San Saba last
June, took place Wednesday at San Saba
and resulted in his complete vindication-
After all the evidence was heard the dis-
trict attorney requested the judge to in-
struct the jury to report a verdict of
acquittal, stating that he could not ask
for a verdict against a man whom the ev-
idence showed had acted wholly in defense
of his own life and that the state of Texas
did not want a verdict of conviction. The
judge accepted the suggestion and the
verdict of acquittal was signed by the
jurors without leaving their seats. The
evidence showed that Mr. Weatherby was
attacked while in his car and that he en-
deavored to avoid the difficulty with Dean,
whom he had never seen and whose only
reason for anger .was that Weatherby did
not comply with his request to be taken
for a ride. He had an open knife and
reaching into the car, caught hold of
Weatherby stating his intention of cutting
his head off. There was no possible way
for Mr. Weatherby to have avoided the
shooting without losing his life. A
large number of Mr. Weatherby’s friends
of this place attended the trial.
