With the sale of boxes as an indi.

the most pronounced ever held here

An hour before the boxes were
placed on sale would-be purchasers

nearly forty people The sale went
off with rush. There was a choice
in boxes, but no choice in prices, the
price per box for the season being
$500. All the boxes are good, how

change his place with that of the

OPENS ARGUMENT
FOR DEFENDANT
G. 7. HUGHES MAKES ELOQUENT
PLEA TO JURY IN CRANBERRY
MURDER CASE.
DEFINES THE UNWRITTEN La
Declares That il Was Thundered Forth
From Mt. Sina BY The
Almighty.
(From Fridays Daily)

For two hours and a half on Thurs
day afternoon, G. T. Hughes argued
the Granbery case for the defendant.
His speech was a mastery presenta-
ton of the theory of the defense. He
was eloquent, pathetic and logical
and was warmly congratulated on his
effort. At the conclusion OF Mr..
Hughes speech the court adjourned
until this morning at $3.50 o'clock.
While Mr.. Hughes declared that the
defense was not relying upon the un-
written law, at the same time he pred
icated his defense largely upon what
the people have come to regard as
the unwritten law in the South
While declaring that he would not i'm
pute and did not impute improper
conduct to the defendants wife, at
the same time he thought that under
all the circumstances the defendant
had the right to believe certain facts
which aroused his suspicious.
Mr.. Hughes made an eloquent and
beautiful defense of the Home, and his
tribute to the chivalry and the man.
hood Of the South was powerful one.
He declared that the husband had the
right to protect the home. and he for
titled his argument with liberal quo
tations from the scripture. In the
course of his speech he spoke of the
cautions that defendant had given his
wife and declared that man had the
fright to saw with whom his wife
should associate; that he had the
right to control her associations. Up
on these points Mr.. Hughes was es-
pecially strong.
The speech traced the life of the de-
PENDANT from the hour Of his birth
until the day of the tragedy. The
married life of Mr.. and Mrs. CRANBERRY
in st. Louis was gone over in detail
and Mr.. Hughes contended that there
was not one word in the record to
show that their married life up to.
the time of their return to Tennes-
see in poverty and he without en-
ployment, had been anything but
agreeable and satisfactory How
ever, when they came back to Ten
nessee the defendants wife had up
braided him and blamed him because
his mother had not invited her to her
home, this, in the opinion of coun-
sci was the grievance that the wife
had against her husband and this was
the cause of their estrangement so
soon after they had gone to the home
of the Longs to board. This evidence
furnished by the State, he declared,
was the missing link in the chain OF
testimony for the defense.
Mr.. Hughes spoke of the deep con-
Germ of the defendant for the honor
and the reputation of his wife and OF
how deep his love for her was and
how he had been actuated alone by a
desire to keep down gossip or the
tongue of the slanderer. His cOnclud.
ing peroration had a marked effect up
on the audience and elected the very
closest attention from the members
OF the jury.
