could do to keep him quiet. He
seemed determined to plead his OWL
case and began to crOss-eNamine the
Prosecutor.
This the Court would not allow.
Garrett attempted to get before the
Jury that Under Sheriff Brown had
made threats ito get him. but this
was ruled out. Had it been permitted
the State could have presented some
interesting facts in rebuttal.
Walter Winston, colOred, alias
DUSTY Rhoades," who was in Gar
rett's place the night of the raid, al
though a witness for the defendant
testified that he went there to purchase
a bottle of beer. Asked If he got 1t,
he replied, certainly, and | paid for
it and drank it, Winston said he
could hardly remember what happened
for he was so scared att the revolvers
that were in evidence. One thing he
recalled was he did not want his girl
to know that he f%requented the house.
Garrett has been pretty strong IN
his statements about the press ana
those who had anything to do with his
arrest. If the public could have heard
him on the stand on MONDAY me!
would not disbelieye anything that
has been published or SAID.
Garrett sometime ago was sentenced
for the illegal sale of liquor, but after
serving a portion of the time was al
lowed to go upon the promise to enter
the United States Army which he did.
