Continued from Page D

main street of this town of 6,O0( where 10 p. m. is 8 late hour a1C finds only few persons on tht street. They were almost at tht hotels door when Myers exclaimed
 Look out, general There's thu Carr brothers"
 Myers had seen three men whom he told Sheriff Forest Barnes, Jr. he Identified positively as the Gar brothers, climb out of a parked automobile, and advance towarc them. One glance at their sci faces and Myers had no doubt o. their intentions. Neither, apparent. ly, did Denhardt.
 Running for Hotel
 The crisp night was utterly silen and the not too bright street lampl of the small town cast an eeric glow. Not word was spoken anC the chatter of the generals boot. on the sidewalk broke like ex. plosions against the ear drums ot the lawyer. The general was run. ming, head-long. desperately, for the hotel.
 He reacne0 the door and fumblec at the catch. Either he was SC frightened his hands were clumsy or the door catch damned. He rattled 1t, he threw all of his 23( pounds-he was six feet, two inches tall,a huge man-againSt it, but 1, wouldn't give. All this was a mat. ter of a second or two, and while he struggled two of the three mer produced pistols and fired At him Denhardt fell, dead.
 Turned On Myers
 The three men turned instantly on Myers, who had overcome his first paralyzing fright, and was ducking behind a parked automo- bile. One pistol was leveled at him One of the men said:
 You are the son of a bitch who defended the son of 8 bitch whC shot my sister,"
 Don't shoot me, doc," Myers cried. T didn't do anything but de- fend him."
 One of the nen-it was Roy Carr Myers said-Seized Dr. Garr's arrl and wouldn't let him fire.
 Three Walked Off
 The three men then walked off through the gathering crowd: A witness saw them try the door of . closed grocery little way down the street. Then they turned and walked back to the hotel. Patrolma1 Tracy had arrived by that time. He said that Dr. Carr handed him a .45 caliber pistol and that Roy Carr handed him a .58 caliber one. Five shots had been fired from the .38 two from the AS. The remaining cartridges in the .45 were steel- jacketed. Tracy said that Jack Carr was not armed.
 Tracy said that Roy Carr said
 T did the shooting"
 Tracy asked about the second pis- tol-Dr. Garr's pistol. Before Dr. Carr could say anything, Roy said he had fired all the shots, that his brothers had not fired any. At Roy's command, the brothers had nothing further to say.
 Charge Is Delayed
 Commonwealth Attorney H, E Kinsolving indicated that the brotil- CTS would not be charged until he had completed an Investigation. He ordered the three bullets that hit Denhardt removed from his body for comparison with the cartridges remaining in the pistols the Carr brothers surrendered.
 Because Kinsolving took no im- mediate interest, Myers, excited af- ter his narrow escape, accused him O. an indifferent attitude. He had been joined immediately by his colleague of Denhardt's defense staff, Lawyer Berry. and they both demanded immediate justice.
 This case isn't going to be white- washed, and anybody can tell the Carr family I said so," Berry said.
 We are going to see this thing through" Myers added.
 Their attitude echoed the general atmosphere of the three adjoining counties.
 People Fill Shelbyville
 Natives from miles around came bustling into Shelbyville as the news spread, and early today they were arguing vociferously or talking quetly along the streets and in the lobby of the Armstrong hotel. My CTS was telling his story over and over again.
 Denhardt had had . stormy career of wars, politics, and journal ism. He served in the Spanish American and the World wars and was cited for valor in France. He was prosecuting attorney of Bowling Green for 10 years, served two terms as county judge of Warren county, and for 6 number of years was joint publisher of the Bowling Green Times-Journal.
