After being out II hours, a jury
in the circuit court here today found
David ID. 0verton. former clerk of
the county court. guilty of murder OF
Probate Ju ige William T. Lawler.

Judge Miller Immediately sentenc-
ed the defendant to be hanged on
January IL. but suspended the sen
tence when a motion was made for
new trial. The date for arguing
the motion has not been fixed.
0verton received the verdict with
apparent calm, and when asked ii he
had anything to say replied with de-
liberation: Nothing, judge, except
that am not guilty."
The verdict was brought in half an
hour before noon and as soon as the
court procedure had concluded Over
ton was returned TO the county Jail.
The conviction of 0yerton today
was the climax of one of the most
sensational murder cases in the south
in recent years. 0verton and Judge
Lawler were political opponents and
at his trial Oyertcn said he had kill
ed Lawler in self-defense' after they
had quarreleG ever matter growing
out of local Politics.
Judge Lawler va, know q have
gone to the courthouse here the night
of June IA. last. and was not seen
alive after that by anyone except
Overton. His body was found June

Canadian border. He was arrested
in Smithville, Tenn, several weeks
ago and was held in Jail at Mont
gomery until his trial.
0verton said on the witness stand
that he killed Judge Lawler after
the latter had attacked him with a
knife, The attack. he said. followed
| his t0verton's) refusal to join Law
Ter in plan to delay the report of
a special grand jury which was I'M
derstood to be investigating alleged
irregularities in the election last
spring in which Lawler defeated
Overton for the probate judgeship.
He denied he had anything to do
with the disposition of LAWYERS body.
He stated he and the jurist had driv-
en- in his buggy from the county
courthouse in Huntsville to the
Whiteburg bridge to discuss political
differences which they hoped to set
tie. These alleged differences were
not explained.
