PLAYS At FUNERAL
OF MAN He KILLED
Band Leader Exonerated for
Death, Conducts Dirge
at Grave.

EVANSVILLE. Ind, June 21.-Playing
a dirge over the grave of the man he
killed was the unique experience Of
Herbert Orrin Pinnick at Fairfield, Ill,
a few miles west of here.
Two days ago Pinnick shot and killed
DR.. Charles r. Leinninger. g welI-known
politician at Fairfield, H., and wounded
Frank Mccullough so seriously that he
died the next day A third man who
was wounded win probably recover.
Pinnick is band leader in Harrington's
Theatrical Company, which has been
playing at Fairfield. and he had been
keeping company with several of the
Fairfield girls. The town boys had or
dered him not to go with the girls any
more and the night of the murder he
was attacked by DR.. Leinninger and his
gang who, il is said, used brass knucks
Plnnick pulled out his pistol and shot
three of them, two of them now being
dead The fourth member OF the gang
escaped.
Pinnick was exonerated by the coro-
nsr, and yesterday the Mccullough
FAMILY asked the band of which Pinnick
is the leader TO play the dirge today
over the grave of their son who met
an unJimely death. Hundreds of people
went to the ceremony this afternoon to
witness the Mccullough burial services.

The suggestion that there was fur
ther tnfOrma ton To be had about the
will interested Daring He wanted TO
find out what It vas. All along he had
known that his cousin had some knOwl-
edge, imported by old Eben, which Phil
lacked.
SO, with great care. an answer was
planned and sent forth in the next issue
Of the paper.
Seems to nIe there's more shorthand
goin' on here" said Bradshaw aloud
when the paper was handed in 70 him
and he had scrutinized the picture In
which Phil se7reJsd his second message.
There was 40 reply TO this remark;
the guard did not understand and made
no inquiry,
In a few minutes Bradshaw went on
slowly:
But I'm not kickin' If I help any
body I expect them to help me-"
What arc you talking about?' de-
manded the guard.
About reciprocity" was Bradshaw's
quick rep5y.
Better be careful" cautioned the at
There wern't no double neanin'. -
the ex-coachman assured him quickly
The next morning Bob sent a sketch
&c the editor of the paper, and from it
Phil made out the following:
Guess you're afraid. I won't tell you
about the will until I get your PIT mise
to try and get out
Don't think I'll try IL. If do
surely won't help you.
Remember what Bradshaw said
about reciprocity. If 1 helped you I
wouldn't get any return So what's the
use.
''Tu play my own game. Bob
Phil smiled at the sudden change IN
his cousin Before he had been thank
full that Phil had rescued him from the
fire. But now that it was all over ne
had put it out of his mind and returned
to his old thankiess manner.
Daring decided that il would be best
to drop the whole thing. There was lit
tie hope for either of them to escape,
and IL was better TO run no risks and
let things take their regular course.

Phil made no reply. He knew how
useless it would be to reiterate his in
nocence.
But. as it is, the prison authorities,
have taken your cases under advise

thank you for the work you did. Many

NO frankly, don't think there is.
If it hadn't been for the second murder
you could get out of here But with
that over your head there is little
chance for you to be freed on both

Phil.

Not at all. the authorities have de-
