Stone Quarry
Employes Many
at Nehawka
Opening of New Quarry by Ole Olson
for Securing Supply of Bock
for Riprap Work.
The new stone quarry which has
been opened by Ole Olson, well
known quarryman, at Nehawka, is
proving a much appreciated asset to
that place.
The quarry is located at the south
west edge of the town and already
a large amount of rock has been re
moved and shipped to Omaha where
it is to be used in riprap work along
the Missouri river. The quarry has
a large number of men and boys
engaged at this time in the work of
removing the rock.
In the last fy.v days a large sixty
five horse power tractor with an at
tachment for removing the dirt from
the face of the ledge of rock, has
been installed, making it much easier
for the workmen to get at the rock
and remove it.
The rock is picked and shoveled
from the ledge and in turn is loaded
into trucks and large two wheeled
carts, made especially for this work
and it is then hauled several blocks
to the loading dock where it is dump
ed into cars for shipment. The load
ing dock has been constructed of
rock and a roadway that the trucks
and teams are driven up and backed
so that the contents can be dumped
directly into the cars beneath.
It is planned to have electric
lights installed at tie quarry and at
the loading dock so that the work can
be carried on at night and which will
mean a double force of workmen to
be employed and the doubling ol
the output of the quarry.

Case of State
vs. Ed Murray
Now on Trial
Defendant Charged with Assault with
Intent ' to Commit Great Bodily
Injury on March 25th
From Friday's Dally
This morning In the district court
the trial of the case ;of the State of
Nebraska vs. Edward Murray, was
taken up by the jury before Judge
James T. Begley.
This case is one in which the de
fendant is charged with assault with
intent to commit great bodily injury
on Ed W. Thimgan, sheriff of Cass
county, which it is alleged occurred
on March 25, 1932. ;
Mr. Murray, who was residing on
a farm north of Nehawka, had been
dispossessed cf the farm on court or
der and sale of property ordered,
which was sold at. auction. The fol
lowing day Mr. Murray was at the
farm to secure some property which
he claimed as exempted from the sale
and at which time he was prevented
from removing the property by the
new tenant of the farm, Fred Drue
ckcr. Later Ray Becker, deputy
sheriff, arrived and Mr. Murray was
stopped from the removal of the
property. The sheriff later arrived,
when it was claimed that Mr. Murray
had a rifle and automatic pistol in
his possession. His actions at that
time constitute the grounds on which
he was charged with the offense for
which he is now on trial.
Mr. Murray is represented at the
trial by William Jameson aid S.
Arion Lewis, of Omaha, while the
state is represented by County At
torney W. G. Kieck.
The first witness of the morning
session was Fred Druecker, the tenant
of the farm, who had been left In
charge of the property on the farm
over night on March 24th, having
been appointed a special deputy
sheriff for this purpose.. The witness
related the visit of Murray to the
farm and under the gruelling cross
examination of Mr. Jameson stated
that he had pulled his revolver out on
Theron Murray, son. of the defendant
and that he and Deputy Sheriff Beck
er had gone to the field where the
Murrays were loading some .wire and
had come from the car with drawn
weapons. ?, L- :;- .v J. :
Deputy Sheriff Ray Becker testi
fied as to his being at the .Druecker
farm on March 26th, of having seen
Murray at the place and told of
nniecter ralline , the sheriff. He
identified the gun and automatic
which were a part of the state ex
hibits, as those which had been taken
from Murray and the hay rack on
which he was sitting.
Hallis . Atkin also testified - as
Incidents at Druecker farm , when
Druecker had told . Murray that he
was a deputy sheriff and showed his
revolver .and Murray had said he. had
one too.
Ed W. Thimgan stated that he had
told both Murray and Druecker not
to move the wire, the cause of the
Hientita until the ownershlD . had
been definitely decided. ; He had been
advised by the attorney not. to place
the wire in the list of articles to be
sold and had kept It separate. He
had been called to the Murray or
Druecker farm on . the morning . of
March 26th by a .message .from
nriiofirer that there was trouble. He
had started for the farm and took a
posse of men with him, not knowing
inot what had occurred. When he
arrived 7t the farm he found Becker
and Murray on the hay rack and
Theron Murray standing nearby.
Murray had his hands in his pocket
and the sheriff had told him to put
up his hands. Becker had searched
him and found the automatic and
gun. On cross examination r.
Thimgan denied that . he had told
Murray in the presence of several
other parties that he might take the
wire.
The defense will probably conclude
their testimony this afternoon.
