CASE HARD FOUGHT
Try to Show Motive for
Ooing to Black to Pro-
test at Lecture.
GALVESTON Texas Oct. 2S. The
state rested this afternoon In
the case of John Copeland Marshall
bank cashier on trial in connection
with the killing of William Black an
anti-Catholle lecturer a year nd
nine months ago at Marshall.
Only five witnesses had been ex-
amined and Sadie. Black the adopted
daughter of Black was not among
them. It was announced tonight
however that the girl was on her way
to Oalveston from Illinois and would
arrive tomorrow night.
The state's attorneys said she would
be a witness for them in relnital.
The defense began Its case with an
attempt to introduce as evidence an
authenticated copy of the fourtli de-
gree oath of the Knights of Colum-
bus to refute the authority of the
circular introduced in evidence yes-
terday ns having been circulated by
Clarence K. Hall Hlack's business
agent.
Tin- Jury was excused during ar-
guments. Judge 1'riggs upheld "at
this time' however the contention of
Attorneys Marsene Johnson and I. O.
Heard for the state that no ground
had been laid for the Introduction of
the ontli.
The defense's next move was to
summon two witnesses who had at-
tended the lecture given by William
I Hack in Marshall on the night pre-
ceding the shooting.
'"Convents Were 1risons."

The father and mother were on the

Took the child to the doctor'.- office
lor that purpose on the night of De-

said they expressed a wish that an-
other doctor he called to assist in the

told them that It was not necessary.
The manner In which the anesthetic
was administered was described by
the mot her. A wire screen mask was
first placed closely over the child's

over the mask. Doc tor Sheppaid then
poured the chloroform onto the mask
until the child lapsed Into uncon-
