GlitSplG muIuSis
Rising Sun, Ind, Feb lit is the
intention Of the Ohio county authori-
ties to try at the March term Of court
Myron Barbour, Mrs. Carrie Barbour
and Mrs. Belle Seward, the co-defen
dant Of james Gillespie, recently con
victed Of the murder Of his twin sis
ter Elizabeth Gillespie.
The sentiment of the public is 50
strong against the trio thtat 1t has
been agreed that they must go before
the bar OF justice. The Indiana leg
islature has just passed a law enabling
the court to summon talesmen from
adjoining counties. when in the opin
ion Of the trial Judge It is got posi-
bic TO obtain a competent jdry in the
county in which the crime was com
mitted. This win insure the selec
ton Of Jury to try the three accused
persons. Otherwise It would be i'm
possible to get u men to sit in judg
ment upon them. Senator Kittinger
Of Anderson, the author OF this law
who made such bitter fight for the
prosecution in the trial Of James Gil
lesple, has again been retained by the
state.
Whether or not any OF the defen-
dants are convicted of completely in
the murder, Myron L. Barbour will be
tried for perjury. The Gillespie fam
lily and their associates are greatly
depressed over the condemnation OF
Jim Gillespie.
