In Re the Drawing of the Petit Jury for the February, 1910, Term of the District Court of Pushmataha County, State of Oklahoma.

RETURN OF SHERIFF

I, William Ellis, do hereby certify that I am elected, acting and qualified sheriff of Pushmataha County, State of Oklahoma.

That on the 26th day of January, 1910, I was summoned by Peter W. Hudson, Clerk of the District Court in and for Pushmataha County, State of Oklahoma, to be and appear at the office of the District Clerk of said County on the Twenty Seventh day of January, 1910, at 9 o'clock, A. M., to assist in drawing the Petit Jury for the February, 1910, Term of said Court.

That pursuant to said summons, on the Twenty Seventh day of January, 1910, at 9 o'clock, A. M., I appeared at the office of the Clerk of the District Court of said County, that there were present at said time and place, Peter W. Hudson, Clerk of the District Court, and myself and that no other persons were present.

That thereupon the said Peter W. Hudson, Clerk of the District Court aforesaid and I, William Ellis, Sheriff of said County, took the Jury Box containing on separate slips of paper the names of the persons, selected and returned on the 5th day of January, 1910, by the Jury Commissioners of said County, to serve as Jurors, and did thoroughly shake the same.

We then together in the presence of each other, opened said Jury Box and after placing the same in such position that neither of us could see into it, we drew therefrom alternately, beginning with the said Peter W. Hudson, Clerk of the District Court, followed by me, the said William Ellis, Sheriff, one name at a time and recorded the same, which drawing and recording continued until the required number of Petit Jury were drawn and recorded.

We thereupon destroyed all the slips of paper containing the names of the Jurors so drawn and recorded from said Jury and securely locked said Jury box as required by law.

That the following are the names so drawn and recorded by me for the said Petit Jury:

J. T. Bailey
Ross Bell
