Anderson, Ind, May 23.-The grand
jury has ordered Daniel Kelly dis
charged from Jail. He was held as an
accessory to the murder of William
Foust at the house of Margaret Boil
ton, at Elwood a year ago. Mrs. Boil
ton was present at the killing. George
Hires was convicted and sentenced to
thirteen years as the murderer. Then
Mrs. Bolton made a confession, saying
that she herself fired the fatal shot in
the presence of Kelly. Kelly was ar
rested near Rochester, Ind. Last Sat
urday Judge Ellison consented to have
Mrs. Bolton hypnotized, and while in
this state she said her former con-
fession was not true and that Hires
is the murderer, hence Kelly's dis
charge. A motion for new trial for
Hires, growing out of the complica-
tons, is pending.
