earnest manner presented the case.
Waltz listened eagerly and drank In
every word.
Then Attorney A. H. McCollum ad-
dressed the jury. He gave the history
of the tragedy. He gave an apt repre-
sentation of how Waltz stealthily stole
into the room, where Lemon slept, took
his (7) revolver and shot him. Then
how he TUNED the chair around so
Lemon would face his cot, position
which would have made 1t impossible
for one to have shot him, and at that
time IL was then that he placed the
revolver under Lemons foot, and blood
marks placed on the revolver.
When Attorney McCollum had con-
cluded his address, Judge Searle
charged the jury. The judge gave a
lucid explanation of what the testi-
mony of witnesses means. He de-
scribed what constitutes murder.
The fury then took the case.
