guilty Of manslaughter In the
second degree, by the jury, and
was sentenced to one year in jail
and to pay fine Of $1,000.
The jury in the case Of the State
VS.. Gordon Brown charged with kill
ing Lon Hardy at Berwyn in August,
1919, had not reported up to 2 o'clock
this afternoon. Brown who had been
out on bond has been remanded to
the custody of the sheriff and locked
up in the county Jail pending the
decision of the jury.
Brown was remanded to Jail by
the court after complaint had been
lodged with the court by the attor-
neys for the prosecution that the de-
fendant was permitted to present him
self to the jury on diverse and sundry
occasions, also it was alleged that
the defendant had made threats
against the person Of certain of the
attorneys for the prosecution.
This is somewhat out Of ordinary
procedure in such cases. Ordinarily
n defendant has been permitted TO
stand on his bond until after the
settlement Of the case, but the coun-
ty attorney presented the law TO the
court that the bond had served its
purpose when the defendant appear
or for trial and was in no wise in
force and effect afterward.
The case of the state vs.. VIM.
Tubby was called and the jury en-
rolled. This is the case wherein de-
fcndant and jim Stribling were charg-
cd with killing Matt Hooper Of
Thackerville at the Santa Fe station
in this city on the 18th day Of Feb
ruary, 1918.
Stribbling was tried at a former
term of district court and sentenced
to Z years in the penitentiary.
Hooper was well known young
man of Love county and it is alleged
at the time of the shooting was un-
known personally 10 either Of the de-
PENDANTS in the case.
On account of the fact that the
county attorney was an attorney for
the defendant before becoming coun-
ty attorney he was disqualified from
participating in the case, and the
state was represented by Assistant
County Attorney Hodge, assisted by
]. c. Graham of Marietta and James
II. Mathers of this city. The defend
ant was represented by II. II. Brown.
