DR.. WINES INDICTED;
BOND FIXED AT $4,000
Harlan County Grand Jury Acts
After Thorough Investigation
Trial January 20

Harlan, KY, Jan. 13-Dr. III. c
Winnes, former state veterinarian
was indicted Wednesday by the Har'
Ian county grand jury, for the murder
of Miss Lura Parsons, Pine Mountain
school teacher, whose body was fount
short distance from a mountain
trail leading to the Pine Mountain
settlement school on September 9th
two days after she had been assault
cd and murdered.
The indictment of DR.. Winnes
marks the first definite step taken by
Harlan county authorities to prose
ccte the case, though previous to the
session of the grand jury several
thorough and exhaustive probes have
been conducted.
DIR. Winnes was in the court room
when the Indictment was returned
agaist him. Following submission Of
the indictment to Circuit Judge w.
L. Davis, Commonwealth Attorney
j. G.. Forester, requested the court
to fix DR.. Winnes bond at $4,000
Judge DaXis fixed the bond in this
amount, which was given by DR..
Winncs. His bond was signed by
George Howard, of Harlan county,
and ID. c. Jones, and former Judge
Hall, his attorneys.
Only one Indictment was returned
in the Parsons case. Jerry Reed,
negro, was held to the grand jury at
the same time with Dr.. VIM p, but
the grand jury failed to return any
indictment against him.
Trial of the case against DR.. Win
nes will be begun in the circuit court
here on Thursday, January 20, it was
announced late Wednesday afternoon.
Both the defense and the prosecution
have agreed to try the case immedi-
ready when the case is called by!
Judge Davis.
When the grand jury first began its
Investigations last week, Judge Davis
stated he would try the case during
the present term of court if it was the
wish of the defense and the Com
monwealth. To do this Judge Davis |
has postponed his civil docket until !
the netX term of court.
The indictment charging Dr.. Win
ncS with the murder of Miss Parsons
was voted for unanimously by all the
members of the grand jury, according
to several persons who have attended |
all proceedings of the court during
the past few days.
The jury during the last few days
has devoted its entire time to the in
vestigation of the murder of Miss
Parsons. Appeals from various sec
tions of the state urging that thoro
investigation be made, led Harlan
authorities to probe every possible
angle of the murder.

MONSTER LEAGUE PICNIC
HELD OVER AT BEAULIEU

Harry j. Bowles was in the city
Saturday with the assessment listing
books of Hay township, where he re-
ports the crop outlook as being the
best he has seen since the first settle
ment of the county. He tells of hav.
ing been one of several hundred nom
partisan leaguers from over the east
ern part of the county who attended
ed monster league picnic and dance
held last Wednesday at Beaulieu, at
which there was cleanup of over
$500 for the recall campaign fund.
The big drawing card of the day was
a speech delivered during the after
noon by Senator Church, of Benson
county. one of prominent leaders of
the league in tho upper house. Even
though the recent rains had left the
roads rough and heavy and the day
overcast, there were more than a
hundred automobiles on the picnic
grounds. The interest and enthu.
siasm shown would indicate that the
candidacy of those favoring the re-
call of Gov. Frazier and others of the
industrial board will be turned down
in the most emphatic manner in that
part of the county when the election
Is held ON the recall question.
