Arrests - Landlord Knights had Honicky Best up on a judge's order, the other day, before lawyer Gallagher as referee, to see what prospect there was of getting the judgement he holds against him satisfied. Lawyer Wilder thoroughly examined Best concerning his financial condition past and present; and then the case was finally held open until next week. [4]
- The adjourned case of landlord Knights against Honicky Best, on a judge's order, came up again yesterday afternoon, before Referee Gallagher. On this occasion Best secured Attorney Landgraff as counsel. A lengthy examination took place, highly entertaining to the crowd, but considerably exasperating to counselor Wilder, who declares that he will have Honicky's 'carcass in jail'. It was again adjourned, until April 8th. [5]
