Saga of Southland Ends
With Freedom for
Honor Slayers

SHELBYVILLE, KY, Oct.
%. (UP) - The Carr boys
went home today to become
living characters in a Blue
Grass country legend.
Handsome Jack Carr and his
brother, Roy, were free-acquitted
of charges that they murdered Brig.
Gen. Henry H. Denhardt whom
they brought once to inconclusive
trial on a charge of Staying their
sister. Their plea was self defense.
DR.. E. S. Doc) Carr, accused
with his brothers, probably never
will be brought to trial He is in
hospital now.
The Denhardt case apparently was
ended for all legal purposes, but
it will find prominent place among
the sagas of Kentuckys hill coun-
try, rich in traditions about Woman's
honor and the right to draw"
In little less than one year, five
characters enacted the blood-letting
drama which ended last night in

would not have chance in an arm

fields and make off with bags of
lint which they sch to Mexican gins
