eouit Instruotcd the jury that llight
raises a presumption of guilt and if
the jury believed from the evidence
that delenilnnts lied to Arkansas to
avoid arrest then thoy must take that
fact Into consideration.
In giving his instructions for tne
defense thu court was liberal and fair.
Tlie court Instructed the jury Unit if
the whole evidence leaves the minds of
tlie jurj' in such condition that they
aro neither morally certain of tho de-
fendants' innoconoe nor moially cer-
tain ot their guilt then a reasonable
doubt exists and the Jury must give
tho defendants the benefit of such
doubt by nequitting them. flight
unexplained raises a presumption of
guilt- Hut llight accounted for other-
wise than for avoiding arrest and
trial raises no such piesuinption as
tliu prosecution in this case souks a
conviction upon circumstantial evi-
dence alono. The law requites tho
stato to provo their guilt beyond n
reasonable doubt but the defendants
are not required to prove an alibi ho-
j'ond a reasonable doubt.
L. A. HoUlduy who is tho mayor of
Carrollton then aroso and opened the
ease for the state. Ho dwelt at length
upon the testimony of Mrs. Meoks
mother of tho murdered man ns to the
receipt of the "llo.ready at 10 o'clock"
letter and the understanding thai the
Taylors wore coining to take thu fam-
ily' away.
Kill Taylor had testified Unit the
letter had reference to a meeting the

to the $TjU Tie was to advuuee (ius
Meoks on hi Intiiruiiro policy Mr

Meek children lmd been put to bed
witli their clothes on; thai the loiter
whs uiuilod at ?o'cuxk u the after-
noon and that everything indicated
that tho time referred to was that
tame night.
"If the lellor was an innocent one'
ho exclaimed "why wat it not signed?
TIihI luttor nloutt is fatal to the de-
fense and ulHolont to warrant convic
tion "
Kuforring to tliu "bloody butchery"
and remuiknbla oacupe of Nellie
Meeks. the speaker dramatlenlly ex-
claimed: "I now belioYH III a spooliil provi-
dence but I never did before litis inol-
dent "
While Mr. II oil May talked tho jury
listened with rupt utUmtlou. (luorgo
and Kill gazed unmoved at tho speaker
und their relatives exhibited slight
concern.
Mr. llolllday dniinstlcally referred
to iiHrge Titylof's stntumont on Hip

Mr. Ilolliday closed ""ltu an expres
sion that the stato asked simple Justice.
Mr. K. F. Lor.Ier followed Mr. lloiil-
day in a brilliant and Impassioned
speecli for the defense. HU address
was long ami abounded in quninuous
from Holy writ and from oilier sources
"The state" ho says "docs no' de-
mand the life of these defendants.

ceeds his authority nnd asks you to

Again ho said: "A chain Is no
stronger than Its weakest link and I
tell yon there aro some very weak
links in tlie chain of the state's evi-
dence." And then lie proceeded to
assail the case of tho state inti general

his evidence.
This remark had reference to John-
ny's testimony about the moon which
wns disproved bj almanacs.
In levhuvlnir the testimony of the
State's witnesses Mr. Lo.ior referred
to Klytlie McCollum as a blind wit-
ness to James Harris as a sneak and
to Jerry South iu a lawyer whose
name did not appear In the law direc-

this blood money Mr. Lo.ler insisted
should bo considered with the testi-

When Mr. l'ierco faced the jury
there was a slight ripple of excitement
in the iiudlenee and tlie Taylors
watched him with grave Intorost.whilo
the wiles and children of the defend-
ants left tho room.
Mr. l'ierco lu particular commented
upon (ieorge Taylor's story of going to
the straw stuck and kicking up the
straw and seeing Ous Meeks' face and
showed Its Impossibility. "(Ieorge

Nothing could phase him.
When Mr. IMoice finished It was

Messrs. Mlllor nnd Mlunls for tho

speeches each trying to make the jury
