© - ESDAY, NOVEMBER, 7, 1911, ———— these confessions by the witnesses, the defendant’s attorneys fought nard to keep them out of the evi- dence. The defendant claimed, and tried to show, that the confessions were not freely and voluntarily given, and were given with the hope of reward, or without warning to the defendant that anything he might say would be used against him, and consequently inadmissible as evidence, but Judge Whitney rul- ed against defendant's contentions, citing several decisions by the Su- preme court of Florida to sustain him in his decision. The defend- ant’s atjprneys noted many excep- tions to be used upon appeal if they lose in the Circuit Court. During the giving of these confes- sions, the court room was hushed and quiet, the listeners realizing that the present testimony might mean the death of one of their fel- lows. The defendant’s poor wife looked sadder than ever and picked up her husband's heavy hat and fan- ned herself and husband with it. The defendant lowered his head a little; chewed upon his toothless gums, licked his dry and hardened lips, and batted his eyes a little more than usual. One could not but feel sorry for the wretched couple. After the giving of the testimony noted above, court adjourned until 8 o'clock in the morning.

So far the State had made out a weak case. The strongest testimony for the State was to be the confessions made by Hale, and the State knew that the introduction of these would be objected by the defense. Mr. W. M. Grier, manager of the Courier-Informant was first put on the stand. After the answering of the usual preliminary questions, Mr. Grier was asked to relate a conver- sation had by him with Hale in the county jail soon after the defendant was put in jail here. The witness testified, in substance, that Hale told him that he shot Carter with his shot gun because he( Carter) had threatened to kill him ,and two of his kinsmen. Sheriff John Logan then took the stand and testified as to Hale's con- fession made to him while confined in the jail at Lakeland. Witness sald that Hale told him that Carter had threatened to take his (Hale's) life and the lives of others dear to him; that Carter had killed his hogs and knocked off the horns of one of his cows; that on Saturday, the day of the killing, he went to Galloway and purchased some shells, and went back up the road; that he met Carter and they spoke to each other; that after passing Carter, he cut across country and came back to the road facing Carter, and after speak- ing to him shot him sitting in his wagon after he had thrown up his hand to his face, Before and during the giving of SMOKE “Inman’s Blunts” Methes. o | s A Strictly Union Hand Made Cigar. on every box HOTEL ARRIVALS.
