IN STATE PRISON
TO SERVE FORTY YEARS FOR
KILLING OF SHELBYViLLE
POLICE.

SHELBYVILE, Tenn, July Ma
rion Anderson was placed on trial
here for the murder of Policeman
Charles Henry at $50 o'clock Mon
day morning. At l p. m. he was SEN
fenced to twenty years in the state
penitentiary after his attorneys had
withdrawn a plea of not guilty in the
Henry case, and their appeal from the
decision Of the April term of court.
in which Anderson was convicted and
sentenced to twenty years ON the
charge of Policeman R. G. Purdy.
Both officers were killed on the.
night of October 80, 1911. Circum--
stantial evidence pointed strongly to,
Anderson as the perpetrator, and six
ty days after the crime he was ar
rested on the charge of the double
murder. ..~~
A large crowd was in the court
room when the agreed vrdict was
reached, but there was no demopstra-
ton. Immediately after sentence
was rendered by Judge Richardson,
Anderson was removed from the
court room under heavy guard to
waiting automobile, and hurried to
the penitentiary at Nashville, where
ne will begin his sentence at once.
The twenty year sentence in each
case will give him forty years to
serve.
The crime was the most heinous
ever perpetrated in the town or conn
ty. resulting in the instant death of
the two officers, who were fired upon
from the darkness. Anderson had
teen arrested in the afternoon of the
Filling on a charge of being drunk,
placed in the city workhouse and af-
terward released on bond. At the
time Of his release and afterwards it
was proven that he had made threats
OF vengeance against the officers.
The crime was committed about
o'clock in the evening. The threats
made and Andersons running away
rom town Immediately brought sus-
licion toward him. Notwithstanding
large reward for his apprehension,
ne was not captured for about two
months.

at Culleoka was almost if not quite as
large as the combined crowds which

for miles around had cone to see the
exhibits of the states agricultural re-
sources. And such proved to be the
case. There were people from Glen

Mooresville, in Marshall county, six
miles to the east; from beyond Sti

Campbell Station. 1t was a crowd of

An extended and elaborate pro

appreciation of the reception accord

corn in Tennessee. He expressed the
fact that an even better record would
be made this year.
