Recorder’s court this morning tried James Harper, white, employed by the Eagle Engineering company, charged with cruelty to animals.
It was claimed that Harper had been found beating one of the mules while engaged in road work and had treated the animal in a most cruel manner. He denied his guilt. A large number of witnesses were present to testify. The case was continued until December 3.
