Septem- ber 14.—Joseph Keller, colored. more familiarly krown to the county au- thorities as “North Carolina Joe,” who was in jail several months asi the alleged slayer of Mrs. Margaret E. Weber near White Station May 1. 1921, has been released from the county jail Release of the suspect will be the means of avolding a lengthy grand jury investigation of the crime and saving the county hundreds of dol- flars. State’s Attorney J. Wilson Ryon is satisfied that the evidence ob- tained in the case is insufficient to obtain an indictment or conviction of the colored man.
