cLAYH0LE MURDER
CASES ARE begun
MONDAY IN BOYD
Judge w. c. Halbert VIII Try Famous
Breathitt County Election Cases
On a Change Of Venue Be
ginning Monday.

Catlettsburg, KY, June II. - AS
surance that there will be absolute
fairness and that politics will not play
the slightest part is the promise o.
court officials in connection with the
trials Of the Clayhole murder cases
which begin here today.
Thirteen men will be tried for kill
ing four men last election day at Clay
hole precinct, on Troublesome Creek
Breathitt county. Seventeen men were
wounded in the encounter, the ballot
box thrown into the creek and shot at,
and the election prevented, thus dis
franchising more than 500 voters.
The murder cases were brought to
Catlettsburg, Boyd county, on change
of venue from Jackson, Breathitt
county, granted by Circuit Judge Sam
Hurst on May 2. The commonwealth
obtained the transfer, declaring that
as the tragedy arose out Of political
passions and prejudices in Breathitt
county the trials should be for re-
moved from that county. Judge Hurst
won his judicial seat in the election.
No case in Kentucky Of recent years
has attracted more attention.
Circuit Judge W. c. Halbert, Of the
Twentieth judicial district, composed
of Boyd, Lewis and Greenup counties,
will preside at the trials. He an
nounced that he would pass the civil
docket and let all litigation Of the dis
trict be sidetracked to allow immedi-
ate consideration Of the Breathitt
cases to begin on June IL, the opening
day of his court term.
All the cases will be docketed and
called as they were docketed and set
in Breathitt county and the trial Of
the cases may consume weeks. Posi-
bly, a hundred witnesses will be called
to tell the story Of the bloody encoun-
ter around the little voting house on
Troublesome Creek.
Preparations have been made for an
extra large number Of deputies to
maintain order at the trials, although
it is not anticipated that great local
crowd will be attracted.
