Drury Admits He Murdered
His Mother---Gets Life Term
Sudden Admission of Guilt in Court Room Came as
Thunderbolt = Expected Thrills in Trial Were Cut
Short by Unexpected Plea of Accused Son.

Hazlehurst, Miss, May IL. Milton
Drury, "a years old, who has been held
in Jail here for four months accused
of numbering his mother, Ada Drury
Converse, and setting fire to her body
in a lonely ravine near here early last
February. unexpectedly reversed his
previous protests of innocence late to-
day, entered a plea of guilty and ac-
cepted term of life Imprisonment at
hard. labor.
The plea was made after an agree
ment between Drury's counsel and the
district attorney and came just as the
jury was completed. 1t fell like a
thunderbolt on the crowded courtroom
as Drury all along had sworn his in
nocence. Less than a week ago he
entered a plea of not guilty when ar
raigned for trial.
His stepfather, Thomas P. Converse,
husband of the slain woman, who was
so diligently sought at the time of the
murder, was here and had declared him
self ready to testify as to young Drury's
innocence. Half a hundred witnesses
from Georgia, ~Converse's home, Texas,
the former home of the dead woman,
and other points were here to testify.
Spectators who had crowded the
court room all day eager for expected
thrills in the testimony were dumfound-
ed at the verdict and puzzled at the
calm behavior of the clean-cut looking
youth who admitted killing his own
mother, robbing the body after pouring
oil over the limp form, without more
provocation than desire to obtain pos
session of diamonds, jewelry and few
dollars all aggregating in value less
than $4,000.
Out in the western hills of Copiah
body sleeps, or rather some ashes
of a body, those of Ada Drury Con-
verse. 1t will sleep on there, in the
relatives at present have no plans to
move the body.
At $3.50 o'clock this afternoon Judge
D. NJ. Miller called the case for taking
Of testimony.
The jury was out ten minutes and
wrote the verdict, I'VE, the jury, find
the defendant guilty as charged, and
place his punishment at life at hard
labor in the state penitentiary." Judge
Miller then sentenced Drury to life
Imprisonment. He first asked the de-
fendant if he had any statement to
make, to which prury calmly answer
ed:- 1T have no statement to make
now"
The sudden ending of the notorious
case came as a thunderbolt to the
1000 people jammed in all corners of
the court room, but no demonstration

was made.
To this day Drury has not discussed
the case with anyone only with Judge
Miller this morning. He spoke freely
to Judge Miller and said he did not
know the sheriff and officers had work.
ed up such a conclusive case against
him, and that he wanted to plead guilty.
Judge Miller cautioned him that if he
were not guilty in reality, that he
should not so plead, but Drury calmly
stated: Judge, am guilty, and mean
to plead guilty. and take my medicine" "
Judge Miller, with candor. stated to
Drury that his plea would be accepted
if recommended by the district attor-
ney, and that he was sorry to know
that Drury was guilty. No one had any
inkling of what was to happen when the
plea of guilty was made to supersede
the previous plea of not guilty when
the boy was arraigned last Monday
Thomas P. Converse, the stepfather
of the accused, showed no signs of ex-
citement, but expressed himself as sat-
isfied that young Drury was guilty. He
is here tonight plying the boy who kill
ed his own mother and plead guilty to
the matricide.
J. L. Britton from Mckinney, Tex,
was here to swear he sold the coat to
Drury that Was found near the scene of
the murder. Drury's last words tonight
were in answer to a query: "Have you
anything to say?" His answer was 81
have none, and God knows when will
have anything to say" His face was
calm, but his eyes were nervous, and
he talked with jerl1y articulation. He
was well dressed, and his appearance
bellies his character as he plead himself
to be today
STORY OF CRIME.
The finding of the dead body of a
white woman, charred and mangled in
ravine near Dentville in the western
part of this county on February IA was
the outstanding sensation of the month
throughout the state. The subsequent
pursuits of various clues throughout a
half dozen southern states and the final
capture of young Drury in Columbus,
kept-the police of many cities busy.
The events preceding the commission
of the crime had largely been unraveled
by Sheriff Ramsey, who left no clues
undeveloped Taking only fragments
of the charred body, a shoe heel, ring
of keys, and name found on the trade
mark of an overcoat, the sheriff estab-
lished positive identity of the woman
beyond all doubt and built UP a string
of evidence which it. is believed would
have convicted her own son of the hor-
rible crime.

a talented patron of the Conservatory
of Music at Whitworth College.
The development of the fair young
singers clear, resonant and expressive
voice has been a pleasure to her able
teacher Miss Hargrave, and a gratifi-
cation to her family and friends.

criminate; but the first number, In the
Springtime by Nordstrom- Carter; The
Winds in the South Today, Scott; Song
of India, RimskyzKorsakow; Gounod's
Sing, Smile, Slumber; Saint-Saens' The
Swan and the two closing numbers. Ar
ditis Sc Saran Rose and Judith by Con-
cone were all given with. fine interpre-
tation, showing range and register of
the young singers voice remarkable in
deed.
Friends and relatives were alike
pleased with the charming repertoire OF
the singer and cordial applause and
beautiful flowers expressed admiration
The piano numbers by Misses Barge
and Lipp were received with the appro-
bation these gifted young ladies always
inspire.
Ushers were Misses Liza Blue, Mary
Alice Bennett, Jaqueline Hyde, Ruth
Brock Pattie Elkins, Hattie Mae Ben.
