CHESTERFIELD, Va, Aug. IA.
Henry Clay Beattie, jr., was to-
day indicted by the grand jury
here for the murder of his wife
on the lonely Midlothian pike,
near Richmond, July 18.
Beattie was indicted by the
jury of ten Virginia farmers after
q deliberation of only few min
utes, after they had heard the
evidence of Beulah Binford, the
17-year-old girl for whose sake
the young society man is alleged
to have slain his wife.
Previous to her telling of the
story of her connection with Beat
tie, the prisoners cousin, Paul
Beattie, told the jury of how he
had purchased, at the prisoners
request, the shotgun with which
Mrs. Beattie was killed on the
Midlothian Pike.
Immediately after the finding
of the indictment, Judge Watson
issued formal commitment,
placing Beattie in the custody OF
Sheriff Gill. ..,'..'
Judge Watson this afternoon set
the date for Beattie's trial as
August 21.
Girl Is Carefree.
Beulah Binford and Paul Beat
tie came to the. courthouse from
Centralia in an automobile. Hen
ry Beattie, who stated that he
feared violence, was allowed to
remain in his cell at Richmond.
Beulah, attired in summery
gown, apparently was happy and
carefree. She laughingly sur
veyed the courthouse yard, which
resembled a county fair, thrifty
farmers having established con-
cessions. selling lemonade, sweets
and lunch to all comers.
Paul Beattie also seemed hap
.py. He had entirely recovered
from the nervousness which mark
ed his conduct for SO many days
after his arrest,

After Beattie's indictment Beu-
lah Binford was asked by news
lpapermen to pose for her picture.
