OF MANSLAUGHTER

Tacoma, May ga verdict of
manslaughter was returned this eve
ming in the superior court jury in
the case of Roy Moorhead on trial
for the killing of Mrs. James Buch-
anan, wife of a well-known lumber
man, on April -, at the Buchanan
Court home.

quarreling for year or more. Three
children were the only ye-witnesses
to the killing, one of them, Mrs.
Buchanan's son, aged 5, refused to
answer any questions except those
asked by deputy prosecuting attor-
ney who had bought him ice cream
and candy. The two Moorhead chill
dren, aged seven and five, testified
freely in "daddy's" behalf and it was
largely due to them that Moorhead
escaped the charge of murder IN the
first degree, which the state had
placed against him.
