LOOK FOR ARREST IN
DAVIS MURDER CASE
In Staying of Dinwiddie
County Farmer Arc Promised
by Petersburg Police.

Especial TO The Times Dispatch.1
PETERSBURG. VA. March lS--An
arrest in the murder of Charles H.
Davis. Din widdic County farmer. who
was shot Tuesday night while driv-
ing along Cox Road on his way home
is expected shortly, according to To-
cal detectives who have been work
ing on the case almost night and day
since the murder occurred. Who is
suspected OF the crime that bafticd
the police for several days was not
divulged by the police.
The theory that Davis was shot by
persons bent upon robbery has been
discarded by the detectives. and while
they have not said grudgc was the
probable motive. ii is believed that
such was tho cause of the unidcnti-
fed parties shooting the old man as
he drove along the road just before
dark Tuesday night.
