That Is Why Ed McMonigle Faces |
Charge of Murder

Leavenworth, Feb. 14.-Ed McMonigle,
=the school teacher who shot William
Bond at Linkville, Missouri, Monday
evening may waive his preliminary
hearing. He is ready to stand trial on
the charge of killing Boon, claiming
that the act was justifiable under the
law. McMonigle is now in charge of
Sheriff Elgin, of Platte City.
Senator Wilson of Platte City, repre-
sents McMOnigle. He said with refer
ence to his client last night: Our de-
Tense will be that McMonigle was justi-
fable under the law for the killing of
Boon. Boon had cursed and reviled Nc
Monigle on numerous occasions. We
think we can discredit the report that
McMonigle shot Boon the last two times
While he was begging him to desist.
'McMonigle and Boon met in front of
the Presbyterian church where the
shooting occurred, at which time Nc
Monigle was subjected to a terrible
cursing by Boon. My client is one of
the best known young men in Platte
county and highly respected. He is
member of the county board of educa-
ton of Platte county. He is a sparce-
ly built man while Boon was a man
weighing something like two hundred
pounds"
Sid Berry, county attorney of Platte
county, is working up the case against
McMonigIe for the state. The tragedy
of Monday evening has not caused the
excitement in the vicinity of Linkville
that usually attends affairs of that
kind
