Sturtevant claimed that Morris, in his testimony on the stand and in his confes- sion, did not state a single thing but hat he knew; that he made no gyesses or fold anything that he was not abso- lutely positive of. He continued: Now, gentlemen of the jury, here is a hostile ol that came from widely separated sections. How in the name of God did they know old man Hall was in the hotel? Word had gone Dut of the hotel. Dick Nichols, J. W. Brown, Erv Carpenter and J. R. Myers are the only nes who could have given the information. Yet the Gefense has set up the claim that these parties 4id not leave the barroom during that night. How did those two men who went into the parior to get old man Hall, as testified to by Sid Goyette, know that old man Hall was in the parior? It must have’been the original intention of the l)’n\.hflers to hang old man Hall, as they brought Sve ropes. must have put up a fight, because Jim Brown told Charles Lomberth and Myron Ayres that Le aid, and this testimony has not been con- tradicted by any witness for the defense. Sturtevant asked why old man Hall had been put into a room where he could.have been 20 easlly found, and asked why the fifth rope, which was left outside, had not been distributed with the rest, and an- swered his own questiom by stating that some of the lynchers would have protest- ed against the hanging of the old, gray- haired man and would have backed out of the conspiracy had they known that he was to be one of the victims. Sturtevant admonished the jurors that they must not draw inferences from the fact that Brown did not take the stand in his own defense, because it was his constitutional privilege. The attorney, however, drew attention to the fact that the other defendants and competent wit- nesses had not been sworn to contradict Hutton and Morris. He pictured the sleeping victims in Myers barroom, and detailed from. the evidence of Hutton, Morris, Brown him- self and others, given before the Grand Jury, how the five men were overpoweréd and drn%xed to their death. In this con- nection Sturtevant said: Mobh Met No Resistance. The victims were in charge of James Brown. No excuse has been offered or can be given for the lynching. After being in his hands for a short time, the testimony is, they were taken out, not by a hostile mob, but by his nelghbors,” as Brown afterward said that he did not try to protect them, but abandoned the five men just as much as he could aban- don _anybody under any circumstances. Brown performed no part of his officlal duty as an officer of the law. He should have sald to those prisoners: ‘“‘Get up and defend your- selves. Get those pistols out from behind the bar.”” Then - they would have cleaned the whole mob out. Brown knew that the mob was coming. He was Informed on Monday that there was talk of hanging these men. Justice of the Peace Myers, who, above all others, was bound by law to protect these men, knew they were golng to be lynched. He told Ira Cannon they were going to be lynched. I feel sorry for that old man, in the evening of lie, getting mixed up in & matter of this kind. Sturtevant next urged the unreliability of the testimony given by different mem- bers of the Myers family to establish an alibi for Samuel Parks. The State's at- torney spoke scathingly of the Myers family, charging that they all knew the mob was coming to hang the men. Sturtevant paid particular attention to the testimony of George Howell, who, when called as a witness for the prosecu- tion in the early part of the trial, testified that he was not in Lookout on May 27, and when during this week he was re- called surprised the prosecution by say- ing that he had been there that day.
