The crime for which Blackwell was
hung was committed at about 7 o'clock
on the night of March 81, 1917. To-

Boyd, according to his own confess

also shot DAVIS, Blackwell said, They
then fled, and on arriving at the gate
Will also fired a shot into the house.

trials and the long court proceedings
