htm In a criminal prosecution before a
Jury la Circuit Judge Kavanaugh's
court yesterday. Nathan Gage was
served with papers tn two separate
civil suirs started against blm and his
wife. Vlda Gift. In which he Is charged
with fraud and deception In connection
wlirt other transactions.

. aeered. In which he la charged with

obtaining Price's signature to a bill of
sale by false pretenses. He Is alleged
to have represented to Price that the
bouse and lot were unencumbered ex
cept for small property assessments not
' exceeding U00. when, as a matter of
fact, records later disclosed that the
property was subject to a lien of more
than 11700.

waa started during the afternoon, but
the case probably will not reach the
Jury until tomorrow noon or some time

court found that Price had been de-1
frauded and ordered the confKtlonery
store returned to him.
