Mr.. Boone then took the Clark-Kilgo
controversy. He told how the same mon
IN it were jurors, witnesses and Kileo
partl5ans,' and added: Great God, we
have heard of nothing like it since the
days OF the Spanish inquisition, and | pray
God the day may never come when he
shall hear of it again.
JUDGE CLARK ABOVE PARTY.
Then he said the other side were irving
to slde-track the jury on the Clark-Kilgo
controversy. Judge Winston spends his
whole time denOuncing Judge Clark, and
IN the course of that denunciation he I'M
willingly pays Judge Clark the highest
compliments it's possible for man to pay
him. He didn't mean it for a commitment.
but 1t was one. He said: The Supreme
court is composed of two Democrats. two
Republicans and Judge Clark What does
that mean? That he's above party. that
he sits where life and liberty and prop
erty are to be decided on for the last
time, and he is above party and belongs
to no man.
Mr.. Boone said the other side were
seeking to leave the impression that all
South Carolina was rising up and calling
kilgo blessed. He asked: Then why
didn't YOU put at least one witness from
South Carolina on the stand to prove it?''
Referring to Judge Montgomery's plea
for poor Kilgo." Mr.. Boone added: 'How
about poor old man Gattis? is he not to
be considered at all? His business gone
his health gone, his reputation gone. and
an original monument like this pamphlet
sent down the stream Of time to forever
brand him as slanderer, gossip and per
jurer.
Judge Montgomery closed his speech
with a picture of Christ on the cross aut
an appeal to you to save the church. Lei
