A FIRE SCARE
A special to the Oregonian from
Oregon City last Saturday said that
for the first time in many months
I an officer of the county is made de
fendant in the circuit couit in a
damage suit on the grounds of al
leged false arrest. T. Nicoli, an
Italian has brought an action
against Ben Patton, deputy game
warden of Estacada, for the arrest
made on Nov 17 on the charge
that he, an unnaturalized person,
was walking through a county high
way carrying a weapon.
He was
tried before Judge Givens on Dec.
3, and was acquited by the jury.
Nicoli now asks $5000 damages
from the warden and $200 attorney
fees, which he is alleged to have
paid for his defense.
His reputa
tion among his neighbors of Esta
cada be holds, is worth $5000.
