Both Held for the Grand Jury

New York, 1895

Robert Smalley of Seaford was held to appear before the grand jury on a charge of perjury by Justice Seaman at Wantagh Tuesday evening. Smalley's accuser is Joseph Smith, a local preacher, who was also the complainant against Smalley's father on a similar charge, which resulted in his being held for the grand jury.
