"All rise for the honorable judge, Charles Hampshire.", the bailiff said. The Confederate flag was being hung up in the back of the room. The judge entered and was informed the case details by the plaintiff. Davis looked at his client. The man, who said his name was Thomas Williams. He had broke into a neighbor's house looking for Davis. Williams once again explained he didn't mean to break the window and wasn't trying to get in. This was easily proved since it looked like he fell in without a weapon. He just got out but was arrested. A witness came up. But then he started having some sort of flashbacks. It looked like space and the future. How can that be? Grey had never been to any of those places. Williams leaned over,"Believe me now, sir?". He nodded slowly. He testified for Williams. Finally the judge was about to make the ruling,"Not guilty for attempted robbery.",we sighed in relief,"Guilty for destroying private property. I sentence you to the fine of 40 dollars to the owner,",Williams pulled out Union money then walked towards the back motioning for Gray to follow him.
