Regretting that the law does not permit a heavier sentence, district officer Miller, sentenced the owner of a house in Hebron in which six Jews were killed to six months. The accused when arrested, was wearing a coat belonging to Moshe Harbeiter, an American rabbinical student. The Arab pleaded that the coat had been sold to him by a bedouin.
