and Large Seward Was Offered for
He Arrest--captured BY Man Who
Married His Cousin.

Columbus. Ca, Dec. 15.-charles
Hardy was arrested three miles west
OF Chipley. Ca. at th home OF Hen
Try Kimbrough Thursday on the
charge Of numbering his father-in law
Charles Fl. Brooks, whose assassin
alton a week ago caused such great
sensation in that section.
Brooks was shot while seated before
fire at his home, his slayer Etand-
Ing on the outside and firing through
the window pane.
The coroner's jury. which has been
investigating the case, returned a
verdict last night. holding that the
shot was fired BY Hardy. When he
learned OF the verdict Hardy left
CbipIey hurrledly. A posse was
formed and started IN pursuit of him
and he was captured a few hours
later. The Capture was made by
Henry Klmbrough, whose wife Is a
first cousin OF Hardy. There were
rewards for Hardy's ar et aggregate
Ing several hundred dol IS. and one
theory 10 that Kimbrcug surrendered
him In order that this fund could be
used In defraying the expenses OF the
trial. This Is simply conjecture,
but II It Is true the situation Is a
most curious one. The governor
offered FIVE hundred dollars reward,
which was supplemented by the peo-
pie Of chipiay.

lions at chipley. Hardy was carried
70 the Troup county all at LaGrange
By Sheriff Huiing. Hardy was la
ter brought to Columbus.
II Is reported that Hardy. who Ia q
farmer was In sore financial straits.
His father-in-law Is we'll to do.
A day or two before the killing,
Hardy went 70 the county seat, at
Hamilton, and examined the property
records.
II me coroner's verdict should be
substantated the only motive that
has been suggested for Hardy's deed
was that By the death OF his father
in-law his CHardy's) wife could come
into possession OF her share of the es-
tate.
