Cal told him to stop as he returned
and give him a drink. This he did
and talked a while. During this
conversation Morgan took the u.s.
ual license to speak 10 vulgar terms
Of Stella Siron, and, when some
such remark was made, Jim Slron
rose up from fence corner near
by, to which it is supposed he had
crept in order to hear the converse
ton. As he rose he called out, III
h aard that, CAL" Morgan replied,
"Did you?" or words to that effect.
Nothing was thought of the re.
mark, as the men saw him start in
the direction Of home, and they,
too, separated, Snyder going home
and Cal into his house.
About half AN honr later the
call came for Cal Morgan, as stated
in a preceding paragraph, Siron
having, mean time, been met going
toward his (Siron's) house, by
youngMcCray, who testified to Siron
being under the influence Of drink,
and from the time fixed. gives rise
to the presumption that he was
then going after his gun.
THE VERDICT
The inquest was closed about SUM-
down aud the following verdict
was rendered:
"We, the undersigned coroner's
Jury, sitting at Bethlehem. High
land County, Va, on the inquest
on the body of Calvin Morgan, de-
ceased, are Of the opinion that the
said Calvin Morgan came to his
death on the evening Of November
2, 1906, by a gunshot. discharged
by James c Siron, our opinion be-
ing based on the evidence given in
the case, Noy. 3, 1906"
I NOTES OF THE CRIME
Siron, when arrested and through
out the trial, asserted his innocence.
Sheriff Arbogast found in Siron's
house two empty shells. These
had been cut between the wads,
separating the powder and shot so
as to cause a portion Of the shell
to be discharged with the shot,
fact known to some gunners.
Attic close of the investigation.
the prisoner waived a preliminary
hearing and was brought to Mont
srey and locked up in the county
Jail.
~On Monday morning his wife
came to town and spent part Of the
lay in the cell with her husband.
The mother, Mrs Malcomb, visit
ed Monterey Tuesday, and, it is
said, has arranged with local coun-
sci to conduct the defence.
The case will probably come up
For investigation by the grand jury
next week. but the trial Of the
case will hardly come off before the
spring term.
The prisoner, haying just return
ed from Staunton, showed The eff
fects of recent dissipation. His
hair is long and his face cut and
bruised in places.
He declined to eat any breakfast
On Sunday morning.
FEW SUCH CRIMES
Highland county was organized
n 1847, and the records will per-
naps show about four charges of
murder. The only parallel case,
was the killing Of Sherl-
Ian by Sam, the black slave of
Wilson, Esq, Of Jackson's
River. This occurred in August,
1855, and Sam was hanged near
where Mr. Lee Hiner now lives, on
he I'd day of September. The
Eases bear a striking blance,
except in the manner of killing.
n both instances a negro and a
white man were inyovled.
