FRANK MUNSON RELEASED BY
CINCINNATI COURT.

The "unwritten law" was invoked
by Hamilton county grand jurors
tuesday. in determining the case OF
FRANK Munson, of Hutchinson, this
county, who was charged with hav-
ing shot and killed Charles Foley
also known as Thomas Combs. when
he found him with his wife. Hannah
Munson. at 721 Melwood avenue,
Winton Place, Sunday, March 9. for
they made report Tuesday, ignoring
the murder charge against Munson.
Munson declared that Foley. whose
home was at Mt. Sterling, KY, had
induced his wife to leave her home
and their six children on another oc-
casion, but she returned to him. A
second time she left with Foley, and
Munson traced them to Winton
Place.
John e. Madden, well-known Ken
lucky horseman and breeder, took a
great interest in Munson, and en-
ployeds former Judge Arthur C..
Fricke and former Congressman
Stanley e. Brodle to defend him. As
there was no indictment, Munson
will go free.
Mrs. Munson also faced a statu-
tory charge, but as this was ignored
by the grand jurors, she will probab-
ly return to her Kentucky home.
Munson, who was released on bond,
has returned to his former home
near Hutctison.
