HARLAN. KY. December s.-An in
dependent investigation by a former
convict. begun while in prison and
continued after his release, was given
credit for the reopening Of the Lura

Ian county grand jury returned in
dictments against three men. charg-
ing them with the crime.
Miss Parsons, a teacher in the Pine
Mountain Settlement School. was vio-
lated and slain while traversing the

indictments were John Marcum. in
charge of the convict road camp near
Dillon at the time of the murder;
Jerry Reed. negro. a member of the
crew at the convict camp. and James
Robinson, negro, also member OF
the convict camp.
Robinson was tried on a charge OF
murder in connection with the crime
and acquitted. Credit for the re-
opening of the case was given to the
efforts of John Bramley.
Overheard Conversation.
Bramley was prisoner in the
Frankfort reformatory at the time Of
the murder. He overheard CONVEX
sations between convicts that other
investigators were not able to reach.
He was in prison when Jerry Reed
was sent back from the road camp.
He declared he saw Reed sell to
another convict the pocketbook car
ried by Miss Parsons. Eventually
he obtained possession Of it.
Meanwhile DR.. H. c. Winnes of Gin
cinnati, a veterinarian, who followed
Miss Parsons over the trail from Dill
lon toward the school, was charged
with the murder. He was tried and
acquitted Bramley finished his sem
tcnce, and, going to Dillon. started
over the trail across Pine mountain.
1t was his first trip over the Pine
mountain trail, but he was familiar
with certain landmarks through
conversations he had heard while in
the penitentiary.
He located certain hollow gum
tree. His quest was ended. From
inside the tree he dislodged clothing
a two-piece suit Of mems under
wear. blood-stained. The undershirt
was marked in indelible ink with
number. A check on the prison rec
ords proved the number was that as
signed to Jerry Reed.
The father and brother of the mur-
dered teacher recognized the pocket
book the former convict had recov-
cred a week ago secret investiga-
tion was inaugurated by the Harlan

His attorneys today made a motion

the witness stand and testified that
in their opinion the prisoner was
shamming. Judge Maudlin then passed
sentence.
During the entire proceeding Har-

MARIONETTES TO
PRESENT NEW PLAYS

To those interested in the artistic
development of the drama in Amer
ca, Tony Sarg's Marionettes have
offered an opportunity for specula-
ton, prophecy and analysis. Some,
including Gordon Craig, have gone
so far as to say that puppets would
eventually replace actors. This was
given concrete expression when
Henry Miller saw the Tony Sarg
Marionettes in Chicago and said
'Why actors?"
Clayton Hamilton, member of
the National Institute OF Arts and
Letters, and dramatic editor of
Boolman, says. in his new book,
Seen on the Stage" that the pre-
eminence OF the Munich theatre has
been disestablished by the exhibit
ton of the Tony sarg Marionettes in
New York.
Mr.. Sarg has kept to such pro-
ductions as would please the widest
circle, and Il is said that he has 80
far attained his end, in Offering

peal. The story was originally pub

The casting OF DR.. Watson pre-
sented many difficulties. The char
acter had to be young enough to fit
into the college days OF sherIock's
youth and old enough for the inn
portant assistance he gives in the
development OF the picture. The
part required an actor who could
accomplish that rare thing. The di-
rector was about ready to give up
the search in despair when the name
Of Roland Young was suggested, that
past master OF quiet acting. and Mr..
Young was finally engaged to play
the part.
