réf. 12906pg. 8 " x 11". December 5 1939 & December 6 1939. Clearfield PA. An archive of letters from the 1939 case of Commonwealth of Pennsylvania v. Various Individuals on Charge of Aiding and Abetting in Cock Fighting. The letter from the law firm of Smith & Maine explains the subsequent documents: "A transcript of the docket of 'Squire Johnston in connection with proceedings against a substantial number of individuals on charges of aiding and abetting in cock fighting has been handed to me for attention. It is my understanding that the Court directed the County Controller to make an audit or investigation of the record in the hands of 'Squire Johnston to determine the present status of affairs with particular reference to collection and disposition of certain fines and forfeitures. The transcript seems to fully set forth the desired information and I will be prepared to discuss the matter with you at your convenience." The following pages show the legal transcripts for the alleged cock fight that took place on June 11 1939. 68 men were charged with violating the state law and 28 of them were made to pay a fine of $10 a piece for failure to appear in court.
