Young Fairey Acquitted.

At the MAY term of the circuit court in
Orangeburg last week Mr.. F. W. Fairey
was acquitted on the charge of murder
for the killing of Mr.. n. G. Heape at
Branchville on March 3, the Court direct
ing verdict of not guilty on the testi-
mony offered by the State. Mr.. Fairey was
stepson of Mr.. Heape and owned the
house occupied by Mr.. Heape and his
family Mr.. Heape was an engineer on the
Southern Railroad and man who was
we'll thought of and well behaved unless
under the influence of drink, which he
INDUCED in periodically.
The day before he was killed Mr. Heape
smashed up the furniture in his house and
threatened to burn it down, and Mrs.
Heape, with her children, left home, TAX
ing refuge in the house of her daughter,
who lived next door. The following morn
ing Mr. Heape began shooting and cursing
and terrcrizing the neighborhood. Mr..
Fairey had always been on very good terms
with his stepfather, and desiring to quiet
him, consulted his friends, and securing
his gun went to the yard to see what he
could accomplish. On the way to the house
Mr.. Heape fired at the party with shot

got possession of Heapes rifle.
Heape then came from the back lot
with his shotgun, and Mrs. Heape ran out
of her daughters house and called to her
son that Heape was coming and would
kill him. This infuriated Heape, and
turning with an oath he levelled his gun
on his wife.
At this Fairey stepped from the side Of
the house and called to Heape: Hold
on" Turning then upon Fairey he said :
Damn you, | will get you this time"
Fairey fired. Heape's gun snapped, and
he fell dead. Mr.. Fairey, who is now
law student in the Office of Capt Kelley,
at Kingstree, is bright young man, and
has alway borne good reputation. He
was represented by Judge James F. 1zlar,
Raysor & Summers, H. H. Brunson and
Capt ]. A. Kelley.
Richard Sweat, colored, was charged
with the murder of Anna Evans, colored,
in Branchville, on the morning OF January
10. The evidence was circumstantial and
strong, but not sufficient to convince the
jury, and Richard was acquitted. The
woman lived with her children at the
house of Sweat, who was her protector
and adviser and manager of her property,
about 1920 obtained from insurance on
the life of her husband who died recently.
She was shot through hole in the side
of the house whileshe was dressing. Sweat
claimed that he was in the room, and
Immediately ran out and snapped his gun
at two men who ran off in the woods. His
wife, who was in the next room, said she
saw him run out when the gun fired. Other
witnesses who were in the neighborhood
saw no men running after the shot, and
there were no tracks leading up to and
away from the house. A single barrelled
gun, found concealed in the house, had
been recently fired. 1t was shown that
several of the States witnesses "had it in
for Sweat, and there was insufficient
proof of motive.
