The regular January term of Franklin Superior Court came to a close Friday afternoon after disposing of the cases on the docket.
Our report last week was in error in that it gave a case, State vs O.J. Coppedge, guilty. The name was confused with another case, and there was no case tried wherein Mr. Copede was defendant.
Cases disposed of since our last report were as follows:
State vs George Dickerson, assault with intent to commit rape, jury returned verdict guilty of assault on a female, prayer for judgment continued upon payment of costs. $200 bond to appear at January term.
State vs John Egerton, housebreaking and larceny, guilty, 2 years on roads of Rocky Mount Road District.

From the front page of The Franklin Times, Louisburg, N.C., Friday, Jan. 22, 1926. The correction had a mistake in the name. It was spelled Coppedge in the first sentence and Copede in the second sentence.
