OH-MEM] Leasing land Date:    3/13/03 10:43:45 AM Eastern Standard Time From:    lguffy@sctelcom.net  (Lois Guffy) Reply-to:    OH-MEMORIES-L@rootsweb.com  To:    OH-MEMORIES-L@rootsweb.com What is the Timberland leased for.. lumber / posts or other ?.. We also have those who rent grazing land for horses, sheep and cattle. Many share crop. We have a lot of wealthy people who own many acres here and hired people move on the farm and farm for them. In Kansas, just a few miles north, many people are moving out of Wichita and renting and buying farm homes, some for living and some for week end getaways. It is hard to find a good farm home here. Most are run down because the owners have retired and moved to town. Two of our sons live on two of our farms. We are in the process of giving them 10 acres with the houses and out buildings so they can do their own thing. We have a wild life refuge 10 miles away, so this is a great hunting spot in OK. (Not on the refuge though LOL) Linda and Lois,     Out west here, lots of ranchers lease, timberland from the timber co. or land from BLM for grazing.  There is no way they could make a profit without more grazing land for their cattle.

A dispatcher also became ill and had to be hospitalized after talking with another officer who took one suspect into custody. All three have been released from Pleasant Valley Hospital in Point Pleasant, W.Va. Why they became sick is a mystery to authorities. Meigs County deputies Kevin Dugan and Adam Smith stopped the car on state Route 124 east of Pomeroy on Sunday night. They suspected the car was being used as a methamphetamine laboratory. Dugan, 36, immediately became nauseated when he began searching the car and went into convulsions. Smith, 24, began to cough heavily and his head began to throb. Later, Pomeroy police dispatcher Gene Chaney, 49, developed chest pains and a rash after talking with patrolman Nathan Lather, who showed no symptoms after taking one suspect to jail. "It's really scary," Sheriff Ralph Trussell said on Wednesday. "We have no idea what it was. We suspected meth, but we couldn't find anything in the car that led to that. Chemicals could be in the seats or carpeting. We kicked that around but still don't know anything for sure." State agents have examined the car and doctors at the hospital have conducted toxicology tests on the men. The vehicle, a cruiser used to transport one of the people in the car and an ambulance have been quarantined as has Lather's clothing. Pomeroy police Chief Mark Proffitt ordered the professional cleaning of two patrol cars used by Lather. Pomeroy is about 80 miles southeast of Columbus along the West Virginia state line. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [OHMEIGS] 116th OVI Roster Co.

ALBAN, Prosecuting Attorney, and Judge LOOMIS conducted the prosecution and Messrs. SIBLEY and OLDHAM were counsel for the defense.  Most of the testimony did not vary materially from that already published except that it was more fully brought out by the lawyers.  The statements of the doctors were carefully noted and the defense here succeeded in introducing enough testimony to throw a doubt in the minds of the jury as to weather CONGDON's blow was the direct cause of BUSH's death.  The prisoner was ably defended and when the jury retired, Friday afternoon, after being charged at some length by Judge KNOWLES, they returned a verdit, that evening, of assault and battery only.      This verdict has met with almost unanimous disapproval on the street, through some of the lawyers surmised that this would be the verdict before the jury retired.  The jurymen, we understand, defend themselves on the ground that the doctors' testimony was not  positive enough as to the course of BUSH's death.  The substance of it is that the defense succeeded in raising a doubt, and the jury gave the prisoner the benefit of the doubt.  The verdict of the public is that CONGDON deserved convictions for manslaughter, and with is opinion are mingled expressions of pity for him.  No one believes he intended to kill, yet they feel that human life is too precious to be trifled with and that the evidence fully warranted a severer verdict.  The jury, however, felt that safety was on the more coutious side.  PAGE 3;  Col. 3 BIRTHS CHAPMAN - In Fearing Oct. 23 a daughter to Mr. and Mrs. Celden CHAPMAN.
