NO CASE MADE OUT.
Here the state closed, Col Womack stat
ing that he knew of no more evidence As
Judge hall was going TO the jury for his
client, Col. Womack stated that he felt 1t
his duty TO say that he had no
cese and was willing TO a, let the
defense take verdict Of not guilty,
as TO jerry Holt and Sam Kendall. They
were both ordered released on their own re-
coghizance. Judge Boynton stated IL a
conviction under the evidence was found
by the jury. he would not iet 1t stand.
There were separate indictments against
each of tho prisoners for numbering DIR. and
Mrs. Barrett, which we're not tried, but the
prisoners were released on their own re-
cognizapce. Solicitor Womack stated that
he would like for this TO DO his last case,
and so NunnaIly IL free. He will
sleep tonight, not under the sur
veillance of the sheriff. but In the
tosom OF his family. The ending of the
case is as predicted when Nunnally was
first placed under arrest. It is but Just to
say that the grand jury must have believed
what the little negro Tom swore to, to au-
thorizs them to find a bill. Without it there
is not one particle of evidence that In the re-
motest connects Nunnally with the tragedy.
His many friends are congratulating him

the fearful ordeal through which he has
passed In a manner that has won him many
friends, and Is TO @ congratulated ON
