It is said that as he was adjusting the tire he stood in front of the rear light on his car and he was hit by a car occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Mick if Elgin. . The windstorm of Thursday night of last week, which caused consider- «ble damage in various parts of the county, was responsible for the destruction of one of the county's Judge E. D. Shurtleff in circuit court at Woodstock Saturday morning and both indictments were dismissed at the request of V. S- Lumley, state's attorney. Buck was represented by Attorney Charles G. Seidel of Elgin. Hie defendant was about to open up the bank on the morning of February 20, when he was met by four bandits who forced him to open the bank vault and they were reported to have escaped with $5,000. Sheriff Lester Edinger later questioned Buck and when he returned $3,000 of the reported loss the cashier was arrested. Buck explained that he had saved the money from the bandits. Further developments in the case came when the bank bandits were captured in Chicago. They confessed to a number of bank robberies and Sam Platonia, believed to hare been half owner of the large still recently seized by Sheriff Lester Edinger near Wonder Lake, was shot and killed in Chicago Wednesday of last week because he had been too friendly with the wife of Gus Boata, who was arrested at the time the still equipment was seized. Vito Leno, 29 years old, 6304 South Keating avenue, Chicago, arrested as a result of the shooting of Platonia, said that he and Joe Sanchieri, 49H4 South Kedzie avenue, Chicago, had been riding with Platonia. #e said that Platonia and Sanchieri owned the still which wa? confiscated in the McHenry county raid and that when Boata was arrested Platonia agreed to pay all of Mrs. Boata's living expenses while her husband was in jail. Leno claims that Sanchieri quarreled with Platonia because the latter forced his attentions on Boata's wife. He said that Sanchieri stopped his car in the 5300 block on Archer avenue and got out to see how much gasoline was in the'tank.

BIRTHS -and M!r-3- Joseph" Huemmi announce the birth of a daughter at their home in Johnsburg. Mr. and Mrs. Herman Nye are parents of James (Fur) Sammons is a free man. Judge Edward D. Shurtleff on Saturday morning in' the McHenry county circuit court granted the petition of his attorneys i"or his release from the state penitentiary at Joliet. In giving his decision Judge Shurtleff cited many cases and much law. The decision covered some fifty-two typewritten pages- Sammons was taken from Joliet to Woodstock several weeks ago on a habeas corpus proceeding. His attorneys claimed he was being illegally held. His case dates back to 1904, when he was first sentenced to Joliet for robbery. Later he was sentenced to death. Still later the death sentence was to fifty years. He served nineteen years and was paroled in 1923. He was discharged from his parole in 1926. In 1930 he was picked up as a public enemy and sent back to prison. His attorneys claimed he was illegally held and secured a writ of habeas cor. pus from Judge Shurtleff. After two lengthy hearings before Judge Shurtleff the court took the I case under advisement for a week- Saturday morning the court gave the decision, which will no doubt create considerable comment all over the country. The hearings.were colorful. Stat*'* Attorney John A. Swanson of Cook county headed the counsel for the state, while Attorneys W. W. Smith of Chicago and D. R. Joslyn, Sr., of Woodstock acted as counsel for Sammons. The last portion of Judge Shurtleff's decision it as follows: "I have given careful consideration to the petition, return, answer and traverse in the record as well as the demurrer presented respondent and taken with the case. "I have given due consideration to the evidence, and to the law presented. "I have not been able to avoid* or pass entirely unnoticed the public clamor aroused by this hearing, and the charges and criminations made. „ "Whether the relator is the desperate public enemy he is proclaimed, and his liberty will place the State in danger, I do not deemed it on« of the issues in the case. ••Or, whether be may be like that dangerous and desperate public enemy to France, Jean Valjean, who spent nineteen years in the 'Bagne' for stealing a loaf of bread to feed the starving children of his sister, and another term, in the same place, for taking the small coin from little Gervais,'-- I do not know. "He is a citizen of Hlinois, and entitled to the protection of the laws of this State, and can only be confined in the Illinois State penitential^ by due process of law, and the law of the land. "It is the finding of this court that James Sammons was legally and lawfully paroled in 1923, upon both convictions, for robbery and murder, and that in 1926 he was, by the board of pardons and paroles, with the approval of the governor, finally discharged, upon both convictions. "Irrespective of his final discharge, his maximum time upon parole, so fixed by order of the parole board expired on September 17, 1930, on both ^ittimi.
