NORTHINGTON'S BODY
 TAKEN TO PRATTVILLE
Jack Nelson and Walter Slaton Are Held Without Bail as Result
 of Preliminary.

Prattville, October 12.-(Speeial )-The remains of E. w. Northington reached this place from Memphis, Tenn, where he died yesterday morning from con- gestion of the brain, and they were in- tered at Oak Hill cemetery this after noon at 290. The funeral took place from the residence of s. R. Wood, brother-in- law of the deceased E. w. Northington was a native of this place and lived here all his life up to a few years ago. He has been in Memphis for several years.
 At meeting of the local chapter of the U. D. C. where the crosses of honor were bestowed upon twelve Confederate vet erans, and a very interesting programme was carried out. Dr. Thomas NJ. Owen, state historian, delivered a very enter taining and instructive address. This is one of the most active chapters of U. D. C. in the state.
 Jack Nelson and Walter Slaton, two white men, who are charged with the murder of Lewis Heath about three weeks ago in the northern part of this, Au- tauga, county were given q preliminary trial yesterday before Justices of the Peace H. J. Livingston and Guy Rice. There were examined about forty wit nesses, resulting in holding the defend- ants without bail. The defendants were represented by local counsel and P. G. Bowman of Birmingham. and the state was represented by Ray Rushton of Montgomery. It appeared from the testi- mony that on the fatal day all four men, Lewis and Lee Heath. Walter Slaton and Jack Nelson met near the home of the Heaths, became intoxicated and after be- ing together practically all day fell out and the tragedywas enacted. There was no testimony to show any bad feelings between the slayer, Walter Slaton and deceased. There was. some talk of a habeas corpus proceeding, but on account of its being but little more than a month when the grand jury of this county will convene, 1t was decided to wait till then.
