Prosecution Hoped to Prove
Beattie's Many Domestic
Shortcomings by Her.
spsetal By United Press R.rs.

Chesterfield Court House. Va,
Aug. 23:-With a new venire Of
county talesmen many with fixed
opinion and all reluctant to fix re-
sponsibility of settling the fate of
Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., progress for
securing a jury was slow today. Two
men were placed in the box in addi-
ton to the twelve secured. They
were Thomas A. Hancock, forty
years and Lewis Robertson, forty
four, both farmers. Two more
Jurymen remain to be secured
The aged gray haired father of the
prisoner threw his arms about his
son and kissed him when he entered
the court room. The father kept his
arms about the shoulders of the ac-
cused youth as they sat at the coun-
sci table. Prosecutor Wendenburg
announced that Thomas E. Owen, un-
Gle Of the murdered woman, and DR..
]. Wilbur Mercer, who was the first
to see the body Of Mrs. Beattie, fol
lowing the murder will be the first
witnesses called tomorrow.
Love for the ten weeks old
child has taken Mrs S. B. Owen,
mother of Mrs. Beattie, from the
jurisdiction Of the court, and with
out her testimony of his many do
nestle shortcomings Henry Clay
Beattie, Jr., may win the fight for
his life. Since her daughters mur-
der five weeks age, Beattie's baby
has been with her grandmother and
her love for the child has become so
great that she left the state going
to Dover, Del, her home. The
prosecution depended largely on
Mrs. Owens testimony to build up
case against Beattie, but she cannot
be compelled to return as a witness.
The trial was suspended while
Sheriff Gill went about in the sur.
rounding district in a search for
veniremen to make up the jury
which is to try the case. Four jurors
were still to be chosen before the
box was filled. Later in the day,
when the sheriff had returned from
his quest, Judge Watson called court
and the remainder of the day was
spent in picking the necessary four
men from those the sheriff had
gathered.

B. F. Powell in the Race

Mr.. B. f. Powell of beat is in the
race for county treasurer, and if sins
pie integrity, rugged honesty and old
fashioned industry count for anything,
Mr.. Powell shouldn't least have a fair
and careful consideration of his canai-
dacy by the voters of the county. He
is a plain, unassuming citizen. The
Sentinel has never heard that he was
anything other than fair and just IN his
dealings, conscientious in his purposes
and sincere in his intentions. Such eX-
%cellent attributes count much in any
vocation. He is 2 farmer, and he en-
tertsins the opinion that his large TAM
ily and his somewhat limited wcrloiy
holdings warrant him in asking the
people for the bestowal of this favor-
The Sentinel feels sure that the al
fairs Of the Office would come up &c
the legal requirements in Mr.. Powell
hands.

form certain duties. 1t is with the
