MAUPIN TRIAL
Jury Renders a Verdict Of
Not Guilty."

When the Climax went to press Tues
day afternoon at 8 clock. the jury was
being selected for the trial of Brack
Maupin for the murder of James Farris,
as told of in that issue. Of the men
summoned from Clark county, the jury
was obtained that afternoon as follows:
French Dykes, Ollie Dykes. Carl Oil
yer. Claiborne Brock, Ben Duckworth,
John Green, Jerry Turley. Nathan Col
den, w. NJ Stokely, Fount Hughes and
w. E. Heflin.
Statement for the defense was made
by Mr. John holland and for the pros
ecution by Hon. A. Floyd Byrd.
As the case has been tried before, re-
sulting in hung iury-l0 to 2 for ac-
vuittal-the readers of the Climax are
doubtless familiar with the facts of the
killing, which occurred on Main street
in Richmond October county court day.
1912. Maupin is said TO have been en-
gagged in some business on the street
when Farris came up. There is a con-
| fiict of testimony as to what was said,
but none as to the fact that Maupin i'm
mediately drew his pistol and fired five
shots into the body of Farris and with
tiger-like ferocity crushing his head
with the pistol and then cutting the
throat of his victim.
In his testimony Mr.. Maupin told OF
the alleged unlawful relations having
existed between his wife and Jas. Far.
ris for 10 years prior to the killing; that
the couple had visited designation hous-
es together in Richmond, Lexington.
Lancaster and other places; how they
had secret arrangements by which to
get mail to each othe.; that he had on
one occasion accosted Farris and would
have killed him then. but Farris begged
for his life. saying he was unarmed; al
another time he had followed Farris and
Mrs. Maupin 10 place and Farris got
the drop on him and forced him to back
down flight of stairs.
DIR. Geo. Sprague, of Lexington, testi-
fed that mental worries, such as Mau
pin had gone through. were sufficient to
produce insanity 10 such an extent that
person would not be responsible for
what he might do.
Cross examination failed to shake Mr..
Maupin's testimony in any material
point. Corroborating testimony was ad.
duced and at 2 o'cl'k yesterday, the case
was ready for argument, which was be
gun in strong speech by Attorney C.
G. Wallace for the defense, followed by
A. Floyd Byrd for the prosecution, who
plead for capital punishment, saying
that no manslaughter verdict would
atone. At the conclusion OF his speech
court adjourned till this morning The
arguments were limited to three hours
TO the side.
Court convened at s a. m. this morn,
ing, when Hon. John. NJ. Stevenson, of
Winchester, was heard for the accused,
followed by Judge W. B. Smith for the
prosecution, Mr.. J. Tevis Cobb for the
defense, Commonwealth Attorney B.
A. Crutcher closing in powerful speech
for the State. The case was given TO
the jury at 1918 and court adjourned
for dinner. The jury considered the
case in the afternoon and at 2:l0 brought
in verdict of acquittal.
