| Headline | Pleads Guilty to Common Assault |
| Text | The case of State vs. Wesley Galyen, charge with assault wish intent to rape, came to a sudden termination in the circuit court Tuesday morning and the defendant was allowed to plea guilty to common assault, and pay a fine of $50 and costs, and the case was ended. So far as we know all persons concerned in this case, are good citizens, and we are glad that good peacemakers have accomplished results in this case. Young men cannot be too careful as to their acts towards young women, as the laws were made for their absolute protection. |
