prison for life.
Harry Sharp, whom Timothy J.
Linehan, alleged wife murderer. In an
| effort TO clear his own name, charged
with being his wife's and his own
assailant. was called as witness for
the prosecution In rebuttal. Saturday
morning Sharp is a clean-cut fellow
apparently in his early thirties and
his testimony. as we'll as the manner
In which IL was given, were most dam
aging TO the defense.
Sharp testified that he left Detroit
on July 81, went to Toledo and thence
TO st. Johns, Mich, where he has
been working ever since at his trade,
that OF stonecutter. According TO
Sharp's story he arrived In st. Johns
on July 20, the very day Mrs. Linehan
was murdered and he had not been in
Detroit since. with the exception OF
one day, Aug. ~, when he came here
on an excursion.
In view OF the charge made by Line
hand. Sharp was asked point blank II
he committed the murder and his re-
ply, naturally. was an emphatic mega
tive. The prosecution could have pro-
duced evidence that Sharp arrived in
st. Johns on the day of the crime, bur
this was not deemed necessary.
DR.. r. b. Glemet, house physician
in ST. Mary's hospital. also called in
rebuttal. testified that Linehan was
rational the day he was questioned
by Capt. Mcdonnell in the hospital. II
was on this occasion that Linehan said
She drove me to it," meaning his
wife.
Another rebuttal witness was
County Physician Grimes, who said
that the bandages worn conspicuously
by Linehan In the court room were
wholly unnecessary. as the wound In
his head, self-inficted, the police
claim, was practically healed. The
bandages had been left on merely TO
humor the defendant. he said.
Both sides rested shortly before II
o'clock and the arguments were begun
at once.
