DISMISSED THE CHARGES -- Charges of assault and battery preferred against Edward Towell Frankfort Farmer, by Wilbur McDowell, 16 year old farm hand, were dismissed after a hearing before Mayor Minshall Monday morning. Testimony introduced by the defense went to show that Towell hit the eye after the latter had tried to hit Towell's father with a club.
