D., July 12.—4Presenting a pitiful spectacle, Cleon Nash crawl- ed up the court room aisle on his hands and knees today to face the charge of murdering Clarence Hicks last winter. Nash spent eleven of the coldest. days of the winter on the ‘open prairie, getting lost in Dlizzards and staggering blindly around in the search for a bit of cast-off food. When | he surrendered to the sheriff it was found necessary to amputate his feet and parts of his face which were. frozen. Both Nas “men who hi son.

Attorney Ed Allen of ‘Newark, N. J., formerly state’s attorney of Burleigh county for 10 years, will conduct the defense. He has personally investi- gated the case for several weeks. It is believed the defense will be tem- y insanity, intoxication or self- defense. Judge W. L. Neussle of Bismarck is on the bench. Thirteen witnesses have been sum- moned by the state. Sheriff Price, tof whom the prisoner surrendered, will be the principal witness for the prose- cution and it is expected that Mrs. Nash will testify in favor of her hus- band Tl s the first murder case to be tried in Kidder county in 25 years. sea se Se PiRL ASKS COUPLE TO RETRAGT; BEATEN | UP; MGTOR IN SUIT Mandan, N.
