GUARDS KEEP BACK
SURG|NC HUNDREDS
At R|CKNER TRIAL
Woman Resumes Testimony
After Her Collapse at
Wednesday Session

ANNISTON, Ala, May 22,-Offi-
today to keep back the crowds that
surged about the government build
ing when Mrs. Evelyn Sue Rickner
resumed testimony in her own de-
Tense in connection with the charge
of Staying her husband, Lieutenant
James G. Rickner.
Mrs. Rickner, who collapsed on
the witness stand late yesterday,
was pale and apparently weak. Her
voice carried only a few feet. She
took up the trend of the narrative
she was relating yesterday when she
fell in a faint. She described events
Immediately preceding the shooting
of her husband.
People began assembling hours be-
fore the courtroom was opened.
There was a rush for seats when the
doors were unlocked and deputy
marshals were forced to keep the
crowds back.
The collapse Of Mrs. Ricllner late
yesterday brought to a sudden and
dramatic end her story OF alleged
mistreatment on the part Of the
officer.
Doesn't Remember Shooting
Mrs. Rickner's voice broke fire.
quently under emotion which she
made no attempt to suppress. Many
women in the court room were sob
bling like the witness. The courtroom
crowd tried to catch every word Of
the defendant.
~ do not remember shooting my
husband" she said in a trembling
voice, adding quickly, "but I do re-
member the flash of the gun"
This was after her husband had
advanced toward her, the defendant
testified
She continued II went to see Rick
to get some medicine. Somebody
called him out Of the bathroom.
When 1 told him what 1 wanted he
said Well, I'm just the man to give
it to you"
Then, said Mrs. Rickner, sob
bling, 'he started toward me as if
he meant to hurt me-"
AT this point in her narrative, it
appeared as if the defendant would
collapse again, but she rallied and
continued.
In low tones, scarcely audible be-
yond the jurybox, she related re
membering the flash of the pistol
but she could not recall how she
secured the gun and pulled the trig-
