His Argument the Un-
written Law and Low.
theirs Dying Statement in
Demanding a Verdict of
Murder in the First Degree
After one of the briefest, though
most bitterly contested murder
trials in the history of Conejos
county, Glenn Holbrook was ac-
quilted, Tuesday evening, of the
charge of murder for the killing
of M. NJ. Lowther, who was shot
at his home in Alamosa, February
20. 1t took the jury twenty hours
to come to an agreement, despite
the fact that the defense proved
the killing was done in self de-
fense, Mrs Lowther, widow of the
dead man, taking the stand and
trstifying that her husband broke
into their rooms before she had
time to open the door and began
the pistol duel which resulted in
his death. Other witnesses were
put on the stand to refute the dy-
ing statement of Lowther and to
prove that both Holbrook and Mrs.
Lowther were fully dressed shortly
after the shooting as well as that
the bed in the room was in perfect
order. Also that Holbrook had not
been in the room for more than
10 or Is minutes when Lowther
appeared.
The state was unable to shake
this testimony and relied entirely
upon an appeal to the common law
for conviction.
District Attorney Pitcher scath-
ingly denounced young Holbrook
and Mrs. Lowther, the attractive
young widow, and his forceful
closing argument is believed to
have been the cause of the jury's
long delay in reaching verdict.
While a verdict of acquittal was
expected by all concerned, the jury
frequently asked for different ex-
hibits and for explanations of the
courts instructions. On an agree
ment of counsel the jury was fur
nished with Lowther's dying state-
ment, and after numerous commun-
ications with Judge Bailey, the
court called the jurors in and told
them that he could not assist them
further in reaching IA verdict. The
Jury retired, and in half an hour
came in with their verdict. Young
Holbrook heard it read without a
sign of emotion and the courtroom
crowd received it in silence, no one
attempting to offer congratulations
to the young man.
The verdict and the commune
cation attached to it follow:
I'VE, the jury, find the defend
ant. Glenn Holbrook, not guilty.
I'VE submit these recommenda.
tions as part of our verdict and
desire that it be read in open
court: We, the jury, find that the
evidence as submitted to the jury
is not sufficient to convict the de-
fendant, Glenn Holbrook, OF muir
der, but we do believe, that he has
acted in very reprehensible man.
ner and that he invaded and violat-
ed the sanctity of the home OF the
deceased, M. NJ. Lowther.
THAT in known opposition to
the wishes and desires of the de-
ceased, he entered the rooms oc-
cupied by him as his home, being
fully armed and equipped tor
