Private Kurtz Able to be at Hearing;
Bond at $500
Joseph Lenneville, the Forest
rove blacksmith, charged with
assaulting Priyat Kurtz, a sol
dier with the U. S. surveying
corps, at Forest Grove, a few
days ago, was held to answer to
he grand jury at the coming
session of circuit court, his hear
ing having been held last Friday
before Judge Smith. Two wit
nesses swore that when Kurtz
truck Lenneville's dog with a
small whip (Kurtz thought the
dog was his own) Lenneville
struck him a heavy blow, felling
the soldier. Kurtz was uncon
scious for a short time, and was
ater taken to the hospital.
Lenneville went on the stand
and said that he merely shoved
he private, in contradiction to
he evidence of the others.
Henry Hamilton swore that he
alked up the street behind the
soldiers just before they passed
he Lenneville shop, and that
from all indications the soldier
was not intoxicated. Hamilton
helped pick the young man up.

he private S50, or the law would
be invoked. He stated that he
did this, however, on his own in
itiative, and Kurtz was not in a
condition to know that the offer
had been made.
