The case of William. H. Ross, colored,
charged with deliberately killing John
Nash, colored, on November 2, 1915, was
tried in the Circuit Court here on Monday
last The case was submitted to the Court,
Judges Worthington and Peter on the
bench. The killing took place in woods
near Takoma Park and was enveloped in
mystery. The evidence presented in the
trial was of a circumstantial character,
but pointed with directness to the guilt of
the prisoner. Briefly stated, Nash was
found dead with his head crushed by a
blunt instrument. the prisoner was seen
concealed in the woods near the spot
where the murder occurred little while
before the hour the murder is supposed
to have been committed. and the motive
is proven, that the prisoner was jealous
of the attention paid his wife by Nash.
The judges disagreed in their conclusions as
to the guilt of Ross and the case was car
ried over for retrial sometime in the future
