 J. J. Cox was Storekeeper at the camp commisSary, and had warned Katter and a companion, Joe Hassen, to stay away On the day of the killing. Katter and Hassen were in the camp, and Cox appeared with a shot gun. Trouble ensued between him and Hassen, who knocked the gun out of his hands, and then he and Katter began to beat Cox with clubs. Martin appear ed on the scene and tried to save Cox. He had a gun but testified that he did nOtuse it, while Oth- CT witnesses testified that Mar. tin shot twice, and that Katter fell dead at the second shot Only two shots were fired, and Cox in his letter, and in state meats at the trial admitted that he fired both of them from a derringer while the men had him down beating him and th t he did SO to save his own life

J. J. COX'S LETTER TO
 GOVERNOR DONAGHEY


 able Letter to the Govern
 or, Causing Innocent Man
 to Be Pardoned After
 Supreme Court Had Af-
 firmed Decision of Lower
 Court.
 Victim of circumstances and unreliable testimony" Jack Mar tin of Pike county has been exon erated after the courts had con- demned him to serve term in the penitentiary for the crime of another. The case presents some of the most unusual condi, tions ever known in the annals of crime in Arkansas.
 J. J, Cox. of Nashville, Tenn, !, a young man attending school there, who had all the time ad- mitted the killing and had been acquitted of it on joint trial with Martin, wrote the letter which finally led to the pardon of Mar tin, after his case had been af- tirmed by the Supreme Court, but. before the mandate had been sent the lower court and the man remanded to prison.
 Martin was convicted of vol untary manslaughter for the murder of Ollie Natter, an As. syrian peddler, at Hackerdam lumber camp, Pike courty, last year. Four were indicted for the killing, but only two were tried, Cox being acquitted and Martin convicted. The letter from Cox to Governor Donaghey is as follows:
 1 with two others, was in dicted with Mr. Martin for the killing of Ollie Katter, but Mr.. Martin and myself were all that were ever tried for the crime. MT. Martin is an innocent man. It is very unjust for him to suffer for something heis not guilty of. I was the one who fired the fatal shot, and l did 1t to save my life. After this occurred, 1 had a friend to come to my bedside and whisper to me that if l was guilty of this crime, 1 had better keep quite until 1 was able to get out of the camp in which 1 was then located, as these people are very treacherous, 50 1 asked my friends to keep quiet
 "The hrst court that met at Murfreesboro, I went before the grand jury and told them exact ly how it all happened and at the trial 1 did the same thing. Mr. Martin had never had a cross word with these peddlers He and 1 were acquaintances that is all. There were some people in this camp where the trouble occurred that were prejudiced against Mr. Martin, and because that they did not know at once for sure who did the killing, they begun to tell it was him, and finally went on the witness stand and swore falsely against the man, causing him to be convict ed.
 When 1 tell you he is innocent, that is all 1 can do. If he had been a guilty man, l would never have placed myself before. the world at the IT ercy of twelve men to convict me if they saw fit by saying that 1 was guilty of something of which 1 was not.
