Rebel Grumbling
Summary
During the latest session of the Circuit Court there was "great grumbling" that the Jury was "of partizan (sic) selection" in cases where rebels were concerned and this is a slur upon the men Sheriff Tabler selected as well as upon the Sheriff himself. The members of the Jury are well known and are honest, high-minded men. This is an attempt to "asperse the character of honest men" and is characteristic of those who make the accusations of partisanship. Perhaps the rebels are afraid of having a jury of honest men and were afraid "justice would be meted out" and they didn't want it.
