HON. J. J. HENRY
MAKES STATEMENT
Did Not Kill Bilbo Because He Did Not Want
TO Destroy Worthless Life.

StarKvlhe, MISS, July 26.-HOn. J.
J. Henry today made the following
statement relative to the drubbing he
recently administered to Theo. G. Bill
30:
To the Public: The second con-
tinuance of the case against me, grow
ing out of the difficulty with Senator
Bilbo, forces me to issue this response
to the false and malicious statements
from Bilbo land Ross Collins. Both
times, have announced ready for
trial. and both times, the state has
asked for the continuance
| regret to take this course. | had
hoped that there would be full, fair,
and open trial. in which the testimony
of sworn witnesses would disclose the
true facts to the public.
Bilbo has declined to prosecute the
case; aad 1t SENS that there is to be
no trial. Why? Because Bilbo knows
that the truth will come and that the
truth will damn him forever The
will have no opportunity to ventilate
the whole affair, for the present at
least, as Bilbo, Collins & Co, are try
ing to make political capital out of
the matter and have no intention
whatever of taking it to the courts
where 1t rightfully belongs.
There was no attempted "assassina-
ton" I had no intention whatever of
killing Bilbo. If | had had any such
purpose, there was nothing to have
prevented my shooting him on sight
or at any time during our little inter-
view, as he was too badly scared to
offer any resistance more serious than
a little scratching and kicking al

was armed and ready. | intended to

Dissertation of her sacred tomb. he had
forfeited his right to live, but I did
not want to kill him. Solely because
| did not care to shed his blood, |
made him a present of his worthless
life.
His statement about being beaten
into insensibility and Inconsistencies
IS utterly untrue. He was never I'M
conscious, stood up in the car, straigh-
tened out his clothing, engaged in or
binary conversation with two or three
gentlement when l was through with
him, and made arrangements for medi-
cal attention as soon as the train could
reach Sturgis. 1t was not uncon-
seriousness, merely cowardice, when he
whined and bleated and apologized
He first made a partial retraction and
apology, which did not accept, and he
then made full and complete apology
