Wife of Man Charged With Killing
Boyce Refuses to Talk.

Fort Worth, Feb. Mrs. Lena
Snead who has suddenly disappeared
and reappeared three times since her
elopment with A. G. Boyce, Jr., be-
came the pivotal factor in the trial
of her husband. J 3. Snead, charged
with the murder of Capt. A. G. Boyce
Sr. The battle being waged by the
defense attorneys without the court
room, to induce Mrs. Snead to testify
and save her husband, has over-shad
owed the fight within. Attorneys and
friends of the Boyce family are try
ing to keep Mrs. Snead from giving
evidence.
Mrs. Snead, her two brothers and
sister, registered at hotel under
assumed names Shortly afterwards,
when the woman was accosted by a
reporter, she stamped her foot and do
manded:
How in the world did you find
me?" Pressed further, she declared
she could not be interviewed, but ad,
mitted that she did not want to take
the stand.
DO you still love young Boyce and
hope to rcjoin him?" was asked.
Well came the answer with a
smile, you wait till this trial is over
and see. Perhaps l do, but there, I
cant talk"
Here her six foot brother entered a
voice of remonstrance and the inter
view ended

IN the battle to save youth, even at
the expense of heart.rending examina'

Capt. ]. T. Snyder, rich New
Mexico rancher. father of Lena Snead
testified in favor of the young defend
ant. He declared that his daughter
was really insane. that young Boyce
was cigarette fiend and a heavy
drinker and that Snead was q good
husband.
Snyder reviewed the romanceful his
tory of the early friendship of the
Sneads, Snyders and Boyces. Snyder
and the elder Boyce had been friends
for 30 years and SNYDER rejected the
associations and friendship, attestlng
10 the bitter feud now existing be-
tween the families. Snyder is IS
wears old and he gave his testimony
In trcmulous voice. When ne de-
scribed the alleged conspiracy hatch
ed, he declared, by the elder Boyce
and fostercd by him with the aim OF
stealing Mrs Snead from her hus-
band, tears rolled down his cheeks.
He declared that Captain Boyce adj
mitted TO hi1 that they were anxious
to keep "Alhert aud Lena together as
she was the only w'man in the world
who could save Albert from going
wrong
The defense suffered blow when
Ed Cobb of Wichita Falls was placed
upon the stand after severe clash be-
tween attorneys and the court. Both
sides wanted him kept off. but the
court ruled otherwise. Monday Cobb
said that Cart Boyce had told him
that his son and Mrs. Snead We're com
ing back to Fort Worth to live. Yes
terdav he declared this was mistake
and that Capt. Ecyce made no such
statement
The state rested, Capt. Snyder was
the first witness for the defense and
he occupied the stand all afternooA.
He will resume his testimony TO-DAY.
Snead. although registered at a
hotel a half block from that where his
wife is staying, has not yet met her.
In fact friends are trying to keep them
