While Superior Court was in session upstairs Monday morning, Rev. W.H. Wall of Shelby faced Recorder Jon P. Mull’s county court downstairs on an embezzlement charge.
The hearing before the recorder was only a preliminary, and following legal procedure the case was sent up to the Superior Court, the bond required of the former minister being $300.
Whether or not the case will come up during this term remains to be seen.
The nature of the charges, according to Recorder Mull, had to do with premium money of insurance policies during a period the former minister was in the employ of M. P. Coley Insurance Agency.
