Mcintyre Gets a
10. Year Sentence

In Fulton Superior Court on We'd
nesday, J. P. Mcintyre, Cobb coun-
ty man, was found guilty of assault
with intent to murder Miss Sarah
Kempt, former Cobb county girl, on
the streets of Atlanta, some months
ago.
The state sprang surprise when
Assistant Solicitor Stephens introduce
ed letter that had been written by
Mcintyre in the Jail and forwarded
to Miss Kempt. In the letter McEn-
tyre urged the young woman to tell
the jury that he did not shoot her
Intentionally, but that the pistol dis
charged accidentally, reminding her
that this was a way in which she could
show her love for him. He told her
lust what to swear on the witness
stand, and explained that he would
indicate to her by mods and shakes OF
the head the affirmative and negative
answers she should give when under
cross examination.
Miss Kempt, instead of Showing
her love in this way" went on the
witness stand and testified against
