Man Charged With Having
Whisky Brings Gun Into Play
When Home Is Raided

Three warrants, charging assault
with intent to murder, having whis-
key and resisting arrest were sworn
out this morning against Fill Cheek,
operator of store on the Leslie
road, who was taken into custody
late last night by Sheriff Near
thur and his forces, when whiskey
was found in his home.
Cheek was brought to the county
Jail about 10 o'clock this morning.
The assault with intent to murder
and resisting arrest charges grew
out of Cheeks attempt to shoot
Sheriff Macarthur, following the
finding of a gallon and quart Of
whiskey in a chest in Cheeks home,
according to Sheriff Macarthur.
Acting on a tip, Sheriff McAY-
thur, Deputy Chappell and Lieuten-
ant Worthey, of the police force
went to Checks home to search for
whiskey which was said to be stored
in chest. Sheriff Macarthur and
Lieut., Worthcy entered the house.
Deputy Chappell was detailed to
the rear of the house to prevent the
occupant from making his exit by
this route.
Sheriff Macarthur and Lieutenant
Worthey had read the search war
rant to Cheek and practically com
pIcted their search Of the rooms in
the house when they came to the

to be stored. Cheek had raised no
objection to the search up to this
time, but when Sheriff Macarthur
asked that he open the chest, he OBJ
jected, declaring that the search
warrant did not give the officers
authority to break any locks, accord
ing to the statements of the sher-
if.
As Sheriff Macarthur turned .

to his bed and drew revolver

he had time to bring the gun into

Sheriff Macarthur, tried to bring it

Sheriff Macarthur called Deputy

MARYVILLE, Tenn, August 20
The Sheffey murder trial went to
the jury late Friday afternoon
Judge John Blair directed the jury
to return verdict Saturday morn,
ing.
Arguments in the case in which
the state charges that William D.
Sheffey killed Luther Wells, as one
act in series of nocturnal crimes
committed by an invader of homes,
were concluded in mid-afternoon.
The court delivered his charge and
the jury retired at Sis o'clock.
The Sheffey case has aroused
the most intense interest in this
part of eastern Tennessee where
homes have been subjected to at
tacks by a midnight prowler over
a period of ten years.
The defendant, a former army
officer and college football player
was acquitted of charges of killing
young woman in 1915. Four 9TH
er indictments, recently returned,
accuse him of Staying another young
husband, of making two attacks on
women, and of house breaking by
night.
Sheffey has stoutly declared his
innocence. States testimony in
Guided Identification of the defen-
dent by two women, as the ma
rauder who entered their homes.
Much circumstantial evidence was
presented in an effort to prove that
Sheffey was intimately acquainted
with details of the succession OF
night attacks.
The defense offered thirty wit
nesses whose testimony tended to
break down the identification of
the accused man by the women, to
show that the defendant was in 9th
er places when crimes in question
were committed, and to establish
the good character of the prisoner.
Great crowds have thronged the
Blount county criminal court room
in each of the eleven days of the
trial.
