VERDICT
IN NJ 'REA CASE
Expect Louisiana Case Go to
Jury Tomorrow.

{ Opelousas, La, Oct. S1.-Wan
and tired, her pale face seeming
even paler today in comparison to
her somber garb, Mrs. Eco Runge
McRea took the stand this morning
In an effort to clear herself OF the
charge of numbering young Allan
Garland. whom she shot, she says,
ito protect her honor. The cross ex-
animation today was brief and per-
functory following the merciless
grilling of Prosecutor e. Debuisson
yesterday. The effects of this ordeal
were still apparent today In Mrs.
McRea's haggard face and trembling
hands.
Mrs. McRea's testimony closed the
.defense's direct case, the only other
witnesses being those held in rebutal
to testify to their clients character.
1t is thought that the case WILL be
ready for argument by evening and
probably will go to the jury early
tomorrow. A quick verdict Is ex-
pected
The feeling that the accused wom-
an would be acquitted was strength
ened today when Mrs. Garland,
grandmother of the dead youth,
stated under cross examination by
the defense that Allan Garland
drank heavily and on one occasion
had been ordered out OF a neigh
boris house for Insulting a young
