Auto In N~eighborhood
Officers also YER conducting an
investigation of an automobile which
was seen in the neighborhood Of the
Couch home about the time of the
accident, o r % afterward. The
automobile wa een to speed rapid
~ away. and It one time it went
into a ditch on a side road nea the
city, and stalled. 1t was soon started
again, and rushed on down the
road. 1t is believed possible that
car was occupied by the attacker,
and probably by an accomplice who
drove the car and acted as guard
while one man went into the house
and struck Kelley.
That the attack was planned
carefully, and by a calculating per-
son, and was not the result of some
hot-tempered difference, is the be-
lief Of officers here. They base this
on the caution which the attacker
exercised in every mi Of his moves,
leaving his a where it would make
no track, disposing of the instru-
ment, presumably an iron or metal
bar, with which he struck Kelley,
and other moves Of the attack.
