ADMITTED TO BAIL.

 

    Charlotte Massey and Maggie Foy were admitted to bail by special Judge Boyles Saturday afternoon, upon a habeas corpus hearing.

    The Massey woman's bond was fixed at $1500 and Maggie Foy's at $300.

    The hearing developed that the defense will set up seif (sic) defense in the killing of Eliza Thomas with whose murder the defendants are charged.

    The defense presented two eye witnesses to the killing which were unknown to the state when the examining trial was held.
