NEW BRI.'I'AIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, MAY 8, 1927 JURY T0 DECLARE WHO SHOT KERRICK Stories of Those Under Indict- ment Make Course Necessary Los Angeles, May 8 (P — The question of who fired the shot that killed Tom Kerrick, cowboy of the tilms, during an all night gin party in his Hollywood home last week, will be left to a jury for want of a better way of determining the mat- ter. All five members of the party who | were held after the early morning | tragedy were indicted for murder sterday while funeral services = being held for the slain actor. Mrs. Sarah Kerrick, widow of the | victim, | the weapon but who declared her | husband was accidentally shot dur- | ing a scuffle, knelt by his coffin as | last rites were said and prayed that | “the truth come out.” So strikingly different and in- coherent were the stories told by the | revelers immediately after the trage- | dy that a coroners’ jury was unable | to fix the responsibility and conclud- ed that the shot was fired “by per- sons unknown.” Y.
