Ticket For This Place
(Times-Star)

(Times-Star)
Affidavit was made to a warrant by
Deputy Sheriff Adolph Imfeld, charg-
ing Elijah NJ. Parker with killing
Elmer V. Butler at Coldspring, Camp
bell county, Monday afternoon. The
county authorities have thus far been
unable to secure any trace Of Parker.
The funeral Of Elmer Butler took
place Wednesday afternoon with serv-
ices in the chapel at Evergreen ceme-
terry.
Sheriff Boone Gosney received word
Wednesday that Parker purchased a
ticket at Oneonto, a station on the G.
& o. road, Campbell county. Monday
evening, for Maysville.
Fuller Shanks, ticket agent at that
place, called up the sheriff and told
him the description of the man who
purchased the ticket was identical
with that given by the sheriff of the
alleged fugitive. The man was so
nervous when securing the ticket that
Shanks inquired the cause of the
trouble Parker remarked that he
had walked the entire distance from
Alexandria and was tired. He also
made the statement that his home was
in Paris. Ky. lie displayed a large
roll of bills when paying for the
ticket. The Maysville authorities, sta
ton agents along the line of the G.
g. o., also the authorities at Paris,
were telegraphed a description of the
man wanted.

tective Stewart started to investigate.
