Judge DeArmond opened court promptly Monday morning, but on account of the bad roads and the failure of the jurymen to put in their appearance on time there was very little business transacted in the forenoon. In the afternoon the grand jury was swornin and court moved off in the usual business-like way characteristic of the man on the bench.
