J

IN THE

United States Circuit Court of Appeals

FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT.

MITCHELL PETERSON,

Plaintiff in Error,

VS.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Defendant in Error.

Brief and Argument of Defendant in Error

The statement of the case contained in the brief

of plaintiff in error omits any mention of the cow

branded 17 on the left ribs, which was the property

of Bad Marriage, an Indian person. This cow was de-

scribed in the first count of the indictment with those

mentioned by plaintiff in error on page 2 of his brief

(Rec. 2). It was admitted by plaintiff in error and

the evidence shows that this cow was one of the bunch

received by plaintiff in error from John Bostwick on

October 21, 1910 (Rec. 34, 102, 132).

We will follow the argument of plaintiff in error

as it is contained in his brief.
