DEATH IN MOOSE
/ AWAITS KILLER
OF U. 5. AGENT
Barrett Is Convicted by
Jury; Sentence to Be
Passed Saturday.
BY JOE COLLIER


George w Barrett, 50-year old
Kentucky bad man. today is in the
Marion County jail awaiting hang
ing prescribed for him Saturday by
a Federal Court jury that found him
guilty of the murder of Federal
Agent Nelson B. Klein.
Sentence will he pronounced at 10
Saturday by Judge Robert C. Bait
yell.
When he heard the jury's word of
doom, after only so minutes delio-
Grafton, Barrett moved not mus
Gle, flicked not an eyelash as ne sat
in his wheel chair.
During the week long trial he
frequently guyed his Federal agent
guards and deputy United States
marshals over his apparent fate, in
dicating that he expected just the
verdict that the nine farmers, two
auto statesmen and one saw miller
brought in.
However, his counsel, Edward
Everett Rice, 38-year-old Hamilton
90 attorney and himself native
Kentuckian, pleaded in his sur1ma-
ton for the jury to find him guilty
of voluntary manslaughter.
Taking only one Of the two hours
Fedora Judge Baltzell allowed him,
Rice used the last 20 minutes of it
in a curious comparison of Bar
rett to Christ, which District Attor-
ney Val Nolan later described in his
summation as "hideouS."
Feared Feudists, He Says
Apparently the jurors voted only
once on the matter of whether Bar
rett, with malice and with premedi-
tatlon, killed Agent Klein, Aug. Is,
in West College Corner, Ind, as
Agent Klein was attempting to ar
rest him for violation of the Federal
stolen car laws.
Barrett admitted the violation of
the Federal law, admitted the kill
ing and said he had expected Fed
eral arrest for more than year He
admitted his stolen car activities
had lasted over a period of four
years.
But he claimed that he feared the
vengeance of Kentucky feudists.
Barrett told the jury that he
made numerous trips into the
Southwest and Mexico for the sole
reason that he feared feud re-
prisal.
Returned in Stolen Car
However, the government brought
out that he invariably returned to
Kentucky and Ohio in a short while
each time in a stolen car.
Barrett, who also murdered his
sister when he killed his mother,
but never was charged with it, ex-
planned his return to the communi-
ties from which he had fled in ter
ror by saying that his love for his
family always brought him back
Barrett SAID that on the day of
the Klein killing he had been told
by a man he never brought into
court that the Manchester gang was
in Hamilton, o., looking for him.
He also said that when Klein and
Agent Donald c. McGovern at
tempted to stop him that afternoon.
he saw, in addition to them, man
across the street with a machine
gun and assorted other armed men
here and there over the neighbor-
hood
1t was the contention of the gov
eminent that Barrett was prepar-
ing to flee Federal officers and that
he intended to shoot his way out of
any trap, and did.
Marion County's last hanging was
in 1888, when three men were
strung up on what now is the
Courthouse ground.
