Chesterfield county farmers retired one
evening to the jury room, knelt down
and prayed for Divine guidance, dis

again, and then filed into the court

Watson Immediately pronounced the
death sentence, fixing November "a,
today, as the date of the execution.
An appeal to the higher courts failed
and Beattie fixed his hope on an ap-

Mann. After a short consideration,
however, Governor Mann, in a scathing
statement declined to grant the pardon
and expressed the opinion that Beat

have in mind number of cases arts

been permitted to pay their taxes from
year to year while the right to a tax
deed was actually maturing in the

seem that the law should be so
amended as to not permit the pay

for example, have gone delinquent by

you to call upon the county assessors,

their minds, for men who have had

On the Friday following, Coroner
Loving began the inquest into the
death of Mrs. Beattie. On the stand,
Beattie, under instructions from his
intimacy with Beulah Binford. But
during the morning Paul Beattie, Hen
rvs cousin had confessed to the Rich
mond police that on the Saturday prior
to the killing he had bought a single
barrel shotgun for his cousin and had
turned it over to him, with three cart
ridges. Paul later identified the gun
found on the Midlothian turnpike as
the gun he gave his cousin
The inquest adjourned at noon with
Beattie still on the stand and while he
was eating lunch at his home, officers
accompanied by Paul Beattie entered
the house and arrested him. At the
afternoon session of the inquest Beu-
lah Binford took the stand and told
of her relations with Beattie. She
told of the renewal of these relations
shortly after Beattie's son, Henry Clay
Beattie Ill was born, and her return
to Richmond from Norfolk where she
met Beattie.
The coroner's jury after brief con-
sideration held Beattie for the action
of the grand jury.
On August IA, the grand juryAre-
turned an indictment against Beattie
for murder in the first degree, and
on August FL, he was placed on trial |

ever known.
