LIEUT.. WILLING FRANK;
HIS STORY IMPORTANT

From the moment that Lieutenant
Willing took the stand, late yesterday
afternoon, he became one of the most
frank, and at the same time important
witnesses of the trial Heretofore, no
one has described just how Sutton's re-
volver had been taken from his pulse
less hands after he is said to have shot
himself, nor had any one explained
what became of the other revolver SUIT
ton is alleged TO have held before the
fight began. Lieutenant Willing, a por-
ton of his testimony contradictory of
that Of the other officers who have tes-
tilted, partially cleared some OF these
points up. At the some time he made
the frank statement that he approved Of
Adams punching" Sutton's face and
advised those on the scene to let Adams
alone.
Lieutenant willing" began Attorney
Davis, soon after he had taken the wit
ness in hand, do you mean to say that
Sutton, an armed man, as you have
stated, was standing there taking a
punching or beating from Adams, an
unarmed man, when you came up7"
THAT is right" replied Willing.
And you told somebody to let him
alone, TO let Adams punch his head
off?"
Yes, sir, I thought it would do him
good responded the witness, with
astounding frankness.

follows.

hour later, I guess, a corporal of the

the shot that hit Rocker had raised

said, Rocker got up, said that he was
''all right" and walked off toward the
camp About that time the hospital
ambulance. which had been sent for, ar
rived and carried Sutton's body away.

replied Willing. "One day, believe.

street. just TO make a show. He
wasn't shooting anybody that I know

that"
The witness could not say that Sutton
had been court-martialed for that al
