with the murder OF John W. Covey.

IA, 1895, and McCray was held as an &C
complete. Young McCray has been out
on bond for several months, but Mr..
Lappin has been in jail ever since the
last above date.
From heresay on both sides of this
matter we have always predicted an ac-
quittal on trial of Mr.. Lappin. and IL
was an injustice that he was not adj
nitted TO bail; and as to Burt McCray,
ne was only a by-etander witness to the
fatal trouble between Mr.. Lappin and
Mr.. Convey, and yet he was refused
bond for several months.
Mr.. Lappin and family and Mr.. Nc
Cray and father are receiving the con-
gratulations Of hundreds of friends this
afternoon, the verdict being almost uni
