WILLIS JONES
CASE.CONTINUED
Judge Wilson Orders Trial Car
ried Over to Next Court
PHYSICIAN SAYS JONES
MAY BE INSANE
Defense Asks For Time to Have
Defendants Sanity Deter
mined by Expert

The case of Willis Jones, charged
with murder, was continued in the
court of general sessions Thursday
morning. The defense moved that the
case be continued on the ground that
the defendant might be Of unsound
mind and that they had not had time,
as they had been employed only Ne
Gently, to prepare the defense along
this line. DR.. j. w. Babcock, the ia
nous alienist, was put on the stand
and stated that while he had not had
time to give Jones thorough exam
ination, it was his opinion that he
might be mentally deficient. The de-
fense then argued tat the court
should give them time 20 have the de-
fendant thoroughly examined as it
would not be just to try him when he
might be insane.
The state then argued that the Jury
should be allowed to pass on the de-
fendant's mentality as that was their
duty. After due consideration, Judge
Wilson made long statement, saying
that this case had been considered at
much length by the court.
A human life was at stake and due
deliberatiOn should be taken before
putting him on trial for his life. If
there was any question Of his sanity
it was only proper and just that he
should be examined closely. AS ply
sicians had not had time to do this he
would continue the case to the next
term Of court, to permit the eXamina-
ton by competent doctors and to per-
nit the counsel for the defense to
prepare their case.
The remainder Of the morning was
taken up disposing Of cases that will
be continued.
