In Spite of That Brooks County Man
Protests His Innocense.
Quitman, Ga, Nov. 1S.-After a two
weeks session the November term of
Brooks Superior Court has adjourned.
The whole of last week was devoted to
the civil docket. In the meantime
the grand jury was in session. Mon
day of this week the criminal docket
was taken up. There were four muir
der cases on the docket. Two negroes
were acquitted and two sent up for
life.
The only case that attracted any
attention was that against Oscar Ber-
ryhill. 1t was charged that Berry
hill stole some cotton in 1901. A true
bill found against him at the May
term of Brooks Superior Court in 1902
and he was tried and convicted. He
made an appeal for a new trial, which
was granted. The next trial resulted
in a mistrial. He was again tried and
convicted and again appealed for
new trial, which was granted, and
was tried third time this week and
convicted. His attorneys moved for
a new trial. The evidence, though al
most conclusive, is circumstantial. Mr..
Berryhill is a white man and belongs
to one of the Oldest and best families
in the northern part of the county and
he is making desperate effort to
clear himself. r.tt-, s~ee-. s--e
