Case Stated for Prosecution.

The courtroom was crOWred to the
doors when Judge Jones for the prose
cution rose to make the opening state
ment FL spoke as follows:
MAY it please the court and you,
gentlemen of the jury: AS the court
has stated to you, the case in which
We are about to engage speaks we'll Of
the citizenship of jefferson county. A
man. a negro man. is charged with the
rape OF white child do not wish
to say anything in this case that Will
to any extent, awaken any passions in
the kuu.an bosom. The facts in this
case are going to be submitted to you
and the witnesses are going to testify
and explain it to you plainly. The
two little girls who We're present the
time of the commission of this crime.
one who was the victim, and the other
her little sister. will tell you in their
way what happened on that occasion.
The victim is little past thirteen
years OF age. hardly old enough to I'M
derstand. gentlemen of the jury, what
she has undergone. The other little
one will be eleven at the next birth
day. The facts are that these little
children and their parents live in the
neightorhood of Kearney. Kearney is
a station this side of Redfield on the
Valley road between Pine Bluff and
Little Rock. Mr. Ross and his little
family lived off from Kearney a dis
lance of mile and half or two
miles, and these little girls had been
in the habit of going to the store at
Kearney, to trade, where they had
been or the day that this crime was
committed. They had left home and
the mother Ohe father, believe, was
gone to the store at Kearney to do
some trading. They stayed until the
felt it was time for them to be going
home and they took the road AS +
stated to you. these children had
started back to their home. They we're
going along the roadway and the little
girl glanced behind her and saw that
there was a man following them, but
she did not pay any particular atten-
ton to it as it was not an uncommon
thing to see man pass along the
roadway. So she paid no attention to
it except to call the atten ton CT her
little sister to the fact that there was
a man behind her. She continued
along that way until finally he came
up to the little girl and told her to
stop. He told her to halt. and the
children halted"
Judge Jones then went on to detail
the facts in the case.
