Judge Albert PEERY'S Trail Justice Court had among a number of very interesting cases one involving a chicken which slipped through a crack in the fence and damaged a neighbor's garden. The neighbor shot the chicken. And then the neighbor threatened to maul a little girl, and threw an iron rod at her. But Judge
PEERY got his dander up when the gunning neighbor sent word in his hog calling voice that if "you will come down in the road I will stamp the stuffin' out of you," referring to an elderly woman who owned the offending chicken. The chicken killer was fined $10 and costs and sentence suspended. Judge
PEERY lectured the whole outfit on behaving themselves.
