COURT IS GOING TO
Be BUSY ALL WEEK.
Calling of Special Session
Here.
MURDER CASES ON THE DOCKET
After Converting Special Term Judge
Little John is Petitioned Not to Hold
court-Jonas Hicks Case viii Be
Among the First Tried.

The first special term of Sumter su-
perior court convened in many years
will be entered upon tomorrow morn
ing when Judge u. A. Littlelohn, at
the instance of four or five hundred cit
zens, will preside for week in the
trial of many criminal cases. d.
And among these will be the case of
Jonas Hicks, the negro who killed Mr..
Jarrett J. Davis on his plantation be-
low Americus two months ago, which
will be among the first taken up.
In fact, the Hicks case is largely re-
sponsible for the SPECIAL term, and the
situation is interesting.
Shortly after the crime was commit
ted lengthy petition was presented
the court praying for special term for
trial of the negro. AS there were three
other murder cases, and otherssfelonles
to be tried, Judge Littlejohn decided
to accede to the request made.
Even this involved an expense of
probably $1,000, but the session was
called, and all is 10 readiness. Yester-
day, however, an une expected phase was
developed IN a counter petition prest n
ted to the court.
This was upon the part of several
farmers, some of whom had signed the
petition for a SPECIAL term but who
now regret 1t, inasmuch as q session of
court will deter work on the farm. This
counter petition was argued before the
court yesterday.
But 1t was too late to undo what had
already been done in this way.
Judge Littleiohn explained the stu
alton fully to the delegation before
him, reciting the fact that, while the
special term had been called OF their
request largely, he could not discrImi
nate and try Hicks alone, when there
were other murder cases upon the
docket.
He would, he said, Inconvenience the
farmers just as little as possible and
try only all cases of grave nature. The
special term had been called. and it
was too late now to turn back
Judge Littleiohn appointed able
counsel to defend HickP, assigning
Messrs Lane & Maynard and Judge J.
A. Hixon to that task The grand Jury
will assemble at 8 O'Clock, and during
the week will pass upon a number of
cases, including that of Jonas Hicks.
The trial of many Jail cases this
week will greatly relieve the docket at
the regular May term of court
