Tbe Evldcncr Before Ibe Coroner
Showed TTll ttae First Hliot
Flreel Br "Bad" AccldeuUIlT
(truck Hli Faiber.
Coroner L. B McBrayer, Sheriff Brook
shire and Deputy Slier iff Morgan re
turned last night from liarnardsville,
bringing with them "Bud" Whittemore,
who took part in the killing at liarnards
ville Saturday. Whittemore was lodged
in jail.
Coroner McBrayer had the body of
"Bijj Jim" Whittemore exhumed and
made a post mortem examination, and
held an inquest. The verdict of the jury
was that J. H. Roberts had come to bis
death from a pistol shot wound at the
hands of "Bud" Whittemore and that
"Big Jim" had come to his death by an
accidental shot at the hands of "Bud''
Whittemore, and a shot at the hands of
J. H. Roberts, and that the shot firtd by
Roberts was justifiable.
The officers report that there is still
considerable excitement over the affair
in liarnardsville anion? friends of both
of the dead men.
"Bud" Whittemore, the prisoner, is
not quite 2 veats old.
Coroner McBrayer tills Tue Citizen
the evidence at the inquest showed that
when "Bud" Whittemore stepped behind
the counter of his store and drew his pis
tol, Roberts caught it in his left hand
and shoved it aside so that the muzzle
pointed directlv to the ir-nt door,
through which "Big Jim" ci.tvred. and
"Bud's" first shot struck hit t 'ther.
'"Big Jim" came up, holding a gu in his
hand, and grapphd with Roberts. In
thij scuflie, it is supposed, Roberts fired
one or two shots into ''Big Jim." It af
terwards turned out that the gun which
"Big Jim" carried was not loaded.
After "Big Jim" had been shot the last
time he left the store. Roberts tuid
"Bud" exchanged shots, and then Rob
erts walked through the doorway. Alter
he reached the street he fired back into
the store, which shot was returned by
"Bud." The remainder of the story has
already been told in Tub Citizen.
"Bud" Whittemore has retained as
counsel Hon. J. H. Merrimon, who today
sent a messenger to Mars Mill. Madison
county, where Judge H. B. Carter, of the
Criminal Court, now is, with a petition
iorHtavrit of habeas corpus, and an en
deavor Tull be made to proenre Whitte
raorc'a release on bail. The date of the
hearing will depend upon the con
dition of'Judge Carter's mother, whose
illness called Hli away from Asheville.
MR. WATSON'H BILL.
Mr. Krpler l'rite Our Repreatn
lalives to Vote For l.
Editok The Citizkn: 1 notice by the
State Chronicle of yesterday that there
is a powerful lobby in Raleigh to defeat
Mr. Watson's bill for prohibition of
cigarette and tobacco trusts in North
Carolina.
1 n view of the fact that there may be
necessity lor action by the people of this
section to strenghten and hold no the
hands of our representatives, looking to
the passage of this bill, please insert in
this evening's issuethe enclosed telegram
sent Hon. John W.Starnes this morning.
Naturally the people of this section who
were robbed of a quarter of a million
dollars last year are interested in the
passage of Mr. Watson's bill.
. A. Kepler.
llon.Jno. W, Slarnes, Raleigh, X. C:
May I appeal to you not to be bam
boozled, bullyriRged or persuaded
against Mr. Watson's bill ? The money
paid lobby represents monopoly and
plutocracy, the few, the tvrants and
hyenas as against the many, the people
and the oppressed, whof e only defense
is the honor, honesty and courage of
their icpresentatives. If there is any
chance of the bill's defeat, assist Mr.
Watson in getting a recorded vote of
members for future political history.
Democracy may now show its faith by
its works. S. K. Kepler.
