1--WE, THE JURY, FIND THAT Au-
GUST WAGNER CAME TO HIS
DEATH BY BLOWS RECEIVED
THE HEAD WITH SOME BLUNT IN
sTRUMENT IN THE HANDS OF
LUTHER ANDERSON"

This is the verdict returned
by the coroner's jury at the close of
the taking Of testimony at IL o.
clock Monday night in Yandalia. 1t
was practically the sealing of fate
IN Luther Anderson's life.
Mrs. Tennessee Bottoms, sister of
the accused young man,gaye the most
damaging testimony at the inquest.
She said her brother reached his
fathers home in Farber between 10
and IL O'Clock Thursday morning, or
a short time after Clarence Farms
worth, Wagner's nearest neighbor,
says he saw Anderson drive from the
Wagner farm. Wagner was not seen
aEve after Anderson's visit to his
farm.
Luther had blood on HIS clothes
when he came home, and he called
fer pan Of hot water" Mrs. Bot
toms testified. II helped him wash
off the blood from his right hand and
wrist, and from his coat sleeve and
the front OF his coat"
Mrs. Bottoms said her mother was
present while Luther was washing
He told US both, she sale. ''that he
got the blood on his clothes while
killing a 2OO-lb. hog"
The statement of Mrs. Bottoms
that there was blood on her brothers
right hand is considered significant
by the officers, who have reached
the conclusionthat the bloody finger
prints discovered on the joist in the
cellar where Wagner's body was found
were Impressions of the digits OF
right hand.
The accused mans mother par
TALLY corroborated her daughters tes
timony in regard to Luther having
asked to have the blood washed from
his coat and the manner la which i'll
came there, but she declares she did
not hear him tell his sister to get

his hands.

from him when they decked their

letter In q pocket which Anderson
had written to his sister, Mrs. Ten
nessee Bottoms under date OF Dec
5th. In the letter 1t has been learned
Anderson was advising his sister not
to talk to any one sabout the money
she ives said to have had In her pos
session for safe keeping.
Anderson previous to the date on
which this letter was written, had
stated to the officials that he had
something like s6s1 when he Ireturned
from the navy in .Jnly. By writing
this letter, which he had failed to
get mailed, 1t is believed that he ex-
pected to prove by his sister that she
had money which he hadsgiyen her to
keep for him, and that he had paid
for the mules. But falling to get the
letter mailed the sister testified that
her brother, on the day be returned
home from the navy, showed her one
cent.
The letter besides advising her not
to talk to any one regarding lthe
money Anderson is purported to have
given her for safe keeping, told her
not to be uneasy about him and MT
TO grieve over the affair as be would
come out alright. The letter Of
which this is the sum and substance
is being carefully preserved with the
other articles by the officials as evi-
dence against the accused.
