prosecutor had finished talking and
some neighbors had taken her outside.
With nom gone just sank into
a kind Ct daze from which I was
reused by the sound Of the judges
voice saying that court was adjourned
until 9 o'clock tomorrow. 1t was
while I was on my way back to my
cell that heard it, and 1t came just
when was thinking what q good
sign 1t was that the jury couldn't
agree. It meant had a chance, it
must mean that. And then a voice,
somebody I couldn't even see:
Eleven to one for conviction. I
hear that's the way they stand
WELL. didn't sleep that night
and when morning came 1 found
myself hoping they'd get it over with
quick. I expected every minute to
be sent for to hear the verdict read,
but except for the warden's assistant
bringing my breakfast and then, later
on. lunch, heard nothing. The
uC1dy Olu IlOt CllCSl lllC up dlly. i
figured I knew what was going on
in the jury room-the other II were
having an extra tough time trying
to get the one, whoever he was, to
change his mind.
When, in late afternoon, I heard
the court house bell tolling and heard
the warden's footsteps coming down
the corridor knew they'd succeeded.
I remember coming into court and
seeing MON and wishing she hadn't
come, and then I was standing up
and hoping wouldn't look too scared
when heard the verdict.
I remember looking at the people
and thinking they'd gone crazy.
They were clapping and cheering and
stamping, and the lawyer they'd
assigned me was shaking my hand
and patting me on the back saying
he knew all along I'd be acquitted.
WELL, with one thing and another,
was clear out of the court
room before remembered I hadn't
thanked the members of the jury.
But when I'd struggled back to them
they said the person I'd better thank
was Jared Parry. "The old boy said
he didn't believe you was guilty, Dave;
right from the start he said it. Held
out against us ALL" one of them told
me. Seemed so sure and argued so
good about it bein' only circum-
stantial evidence and so on that I'm
darned il he didn't win us all over,
one by one. If it hadn't been for
Jared" He didn't finish his SEN
tence. He didn't have to. Just
gulped and nodded and asked where
Jared was, but nobody seemed to know.
I didn't catch up with him until he
was we'll ON the open road leading out
Of Mayville.
Forget 1t, Dave" he cut me short
when I tried to talk "You didn't
kill Lem. knew all along you didn't
do it."
Il didn't. Jared" I told him. But
how did you know? How did you
know for sure?"
For moment thought he wasn't
going to answer, then all of a sud-
den he stopped short and looked right
at me.
II knowed you didn't kill Lem
Shaines, Dave I knowed for sure"
he told me. II killed Lem myself"

the looks Of the farm and the way
We lived: me and MON not always
having enough to eat, Lem being so
mean and close -fsted be even be-
grudged us the food that he figured
might've been sold instead.
"There has to be some way out of
this for you, Davie," she'd say, al
most like she was talking to her
self and not me at all. There has
to be some way out. Maybe I'll find
tt"
Which was why, I guess, such a
queer feeling come over me the eve
ming I went back to the house after
q hard day in the fields and found
MON sitting on the back porch in a
rocker, staring out in the direction
of the cornfields Every other time
I'd come back she'd been busy dish
ing up supper-what there was of it
in the kitchen. It'd been Lem
who was in the rocker-but he wasn't
there this time I was kind of sur
prised, guess, and asked nom where
he was.
IT DON'T know" she said, getting
up and going into the house.
He's late. There don't seem to be
no use waiting. Come on in and eat
your supper. Davie."
But I didn't. I decided better 60
and find Lem because I still remem-
1or 1,o ho piOhf uhpn
we hadn't waited supper for him. I
wasn't no more than halfway toward
the barn when I heard MON calling
something after me but I just waved
my hand and kept on going. I'd re-
called seeing Lem working near the
cornfield in the middle Of the after
noon-and it was there l found him,
lying on his back on the ground, his
eyes wide-open and staring, and the
gun right beside him.
I knew he was dead. knew that
right away. And then without think
ing about what was doing I stopped
down and picked up the gun and just
stood there staring at it, feeling all
the time like I was in queer kind
of dream and that I'd just have to
wake up any minute now.
don't know how long I stood
there, because time just seemed to
have stopped, but that was the way
they found me, and the way they
described 1t in court sounded pretty
bad. Not that the trial seemed real,
because 1t didn't; not, anyway, un-
til the very day the case went to
the jury and heard the prosecutor
finish up by shouting that the State
demanded the death penalty.
*.+
TT WAS the word death" that
finally got through to my number
brain. I didn't want to die. I was
young: I had my whole life before
me-and I hadn't killed Lem Shaines.
I hadn't! hadn't! I wanted to jump
up and shout it out to the jury, shout
1t louder than this man who was tell
Ing them had done it, Just like he'd
been there himself and seen me.
But I didn't move I couldn't if
l'G wanted to- I just sat there and
looked at the II faces, one after the
other and saw how they hung on
every word the prosecutor said. All
OF them except old Jared Parry,
who'd known Lem pretty well, and
he was staring at me like he couldn't

KOPLEMAN PLANS
 FLOOD BROADCAST
Places Responsibility on Four States For Delay in
 Starting Plan

Responsibility for the delay in starting the flood control program rests squarely upon New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts and Con- necticut, charged Congressman Herman P. Kopplemann, represen- tative of the first congressional dis trict of Connecticut, who announced at the same time that he will broad- cast the full" story of the New England flood compact delay over Station Wr1C, in Hartford Sunday afternoon, November 2, from 4:30 to 5 o'clock.
 Asserting that provisions govern ing the generation of power written into the compact by the flood com missions of the four New England states had caused the rejection of the compact in Washington the con- gressman added that had 1t not been for the injection of power into the compact, the flood control program would be underway by this time.
 "The compact as 1t at present reads" he declared, "contravenes the federal power act of 1880, exceeds the provisions of the Flood Control Act of 1886. and met rejection at the hands of the administration because 1t attempts to set up state control over power generation in circum- stances where control should prop. erly be left to the federal govern ment."
