C., WEDNESDAY/EVENING, SEPTEMBER 14, 1904 NO. 169 GIVI TO JURY WHITE TRIAL CLOSING JUDGE'S CHARGE THIS AFTERNOON The Closing Argument for the State by Col. Glenn, The White trial will go to the jury today. It has been conducted with perfect order and until coun sel began to argue it, its progress had been phenomenal. Judge Cooke announced that he would not ask attorneys to cut short their speeches, and the importance of the case is truly attested by the time that counsel have consumed. For a while it had been thought that the speeches would be short, that long ones were not a necessi ty. But as the trial progressed it was seen that every effort would be directed to the conviction of the men under indictment and the defense taxed its ingenuity to the utmost to meet the new phases of the prosecution. The history of this case is well known toall. It gained through the Associated Press, large circu lation and national prominence. From the newspaper standpoint it deserved it. Here was Russell Sherrill, a young man belonging to a family representing the fl rwer of fine womanhood and manhood, a handsome young fellow of fine manners and with a reputation for gallantry. He was admired by his girl friends, and he had many. Here were his slayers, who proved blameless characters by a host of witnesses, men with every demean or of gentlemen, handsome and in telligent, men who married promi nently and who were backed in their act of violence by the wealth jest of our sister cPy, Concoil. And there, too, was the girl whose reputation had been good, who was of honest report in her neighbor hood. She swore that she bore the disgrace that belonged to young Sherrill, and in consequence of that testimony, the Whites waited upon the young man with the re sult that several families are today in mourning and the details of this &p''’«hle tragedy are opened to a prying, prurient, pitiless world. And the merits of this cas«, this trial has been set to investigate. An unusual ceremony it has been all the way through. As the play-, ers in this tragedy have all been persons of prominence, so in the uniqueness of things all the wit nesses to it have been of good character. It is the first great .trial held here in years, in which it did not ap pear that some one was prompted to swear away his fellow mortals life or another suborned to save him from well merited punishment. But there has been nothing of this and the witnesses on both sides have often been called upon to say words of good testimony to the others and they have done it. It is almost an unheard thing to have a trial in which there is no attack upon a witness, and if there is one circumstance more than another, that has conspired to give it Bur pring interest, that one thing is the character and the prominence of everybody party to this action. A resume of the arguments made by the counsel was promised Monday. Reference to Mr. Clem ent’s speech was made yesterday. He was followed by Judge Mont gomery who Bin the beginning outlined the defense. Hesaid: “I have not teen a frequent visitor to your town. You have such an able array of talent that no lawyer can come in here and make a their having prepared themselves for trouble by being armed. On such a mission as this, it would have been foolish to go without being armed. “They did not con sult me as to what they should do, I should have told them to do as they did, and they did as all the rest of you would have done.” During Judge Montgomery’s plea, which had the virtues of elo quence and brevity, the defendant Chalmers White was so overcome with emotion that he wept audibly and his brother Thomas White gently touched him as if to cheer him. It is regrettable that this reporter’s duties called him away from the court room and the speeches of Judge Montgomery, Senator Overman, Solicitor Ham mer and Mr. Linn were hoard at such infrequent intervals preclude the possibility of a fair synopsis of the speeches in this trial, Senator Overman made a as to giving great splen- did presentation of his side. He pointed out the danger to the home life if there is a lessening of the moral ideal. “Let it be known that the man who is faithless under promise of marriage, must die, and men will be afraid to seduce women. Our forefathers loved the home, loved their women and the seducer always paid the death penalty. True Southern men are ever ready to rush to the defense of their women. We have heard a great deal said about the sorrow in the Sherrill home. There is sorrow there, but it is one that in the wisdom of Nature will wear away. Soon the habiliments of woe will be laid aside, the world will be again beautiful. I would that I might son, and if ever he violates the pure, curly headed maiden who grew up by his side, then I say let him die. That is the doctrine 1 preach. Ressell Sherrill, you are dead but you are on trial. Annie White is already con- denmed. Is there anything against the character of this poor girl ? Dead Russell Sherrill said not. He did make the plea of every violator of womanhood, that he was not her only visitor in impuri ty. He did say that he would fit it all right, but wouldn’t marry her. A man who steals a pig will do this, and it is an admission that he stole the pig, and so he ad mitted his part in Annie White’s shame, nor has this been denied. Was Annie White a girl of bad character ? Russell Sherrill says not, for he carried her in his buggy to social gatherings, took her to the house of God, brought her to his home and played with her around game boards. Prof. Clegg visited her, Mrs. Sherrill visited her. No man who knows a woman to be an improper associate for his family is going to allow that person to come in bis family. Russell Sherrill knew that he had gained this poor girl’s confidence, and he knew that he alone had it. Did they wish to kill him ? No, they did not, had they done so in the cover of da knees as they drove by Sherrill’s home they could have killed him and escaped. Every circumstance shows that they did not. Russell Sherrill was the only man who could eave the girl’s shame. But when he died, oh the pity of it! Annie White died. For her now there is not the glad recognition of her former friends. naked villainy with old odds and ends, stolen forth from Holy Writ, and thus I seem a saint when I most play the devil.’ And with a quotation from the sermon on the mount, Mr. Watson close 1 the most marvelous speech ever made here in defense of a fellow mortal. There was hardly any e ^ech with more sentiment than war con-' LAUDANUM AND LIQUOR. THE MACHINISTS WIN. A PASTOR’S WORK. LEAVE OR DISMANTLE living. But 1 have called here to restore that dead boy to hiB,She cannot associate with her mother. But there is sorrow in more than one home. Here is another woman whose neighbors will no longer associate with her. They will never visit her again, and one man has withdrawn from the church because -ne, who was in no wise to blame, belonged to it. It was a dangerous mission upon which these men embarked and they would have been foolish not to be armed. They simply asked this young man to marry the girl he had wronged and thus save a half dozen homes. Every part of their testimony shows that they meant no harm. But when young Sherrill declared he would die be fore marrying this girl, there was danger and these defendants knew it. That he was armed there was every reason to believe, since any ungrotected man would have been foolish to charge upon another armed. Asking the jury to re member the courage of other juries who had passed upon these questions,Mr. Overman concluded- his beautiful speech with Portia’s homily on “Mercy” in Shakes peare’s Merchant of Venice. Mr. Watson closed the argument for the defense. He began by say ing he welcomed the close of the trial. “In all my experience of 35 years at the bar, I have never seen a prosecution in which counsel did not forget themselves in their zeal for their fellow man’s blood. I have examined the witnesses for the state tenderly, and no man can say I have been cruel. Have 1 taken advantage of my long expe rience at the bar and my training in argument, to crush a man who. is less able to contend with me? If I have, charge it up to the de fense. I have tried cases in which technicalities of the law are invok ed, but have never done this where the issues of life and death are in volved. These men live unless you kill them, they will have liberty unless you deprive them of it. The counsel have made much of the fact that the defendants carried concealed weapons. They are not child acquaintances. Outlawed as a moral leper, she is avoided. A seduced woman is the ruin of a household unless the man comes and takes her away. As society is constituted, a man who falls in shame is allowed to live kud 61 forgotten, but the woman is lost. To all men who are inclined to such vice I beg you to read Hawthorne’s Scarlet Letter and Tolstoi’s “Re surrection.” There is no hope in a court for a seduced woman, and Annie White living is today in a worse condition than Russell Sher rill dead. Death is a sting that kind Nature and wise Time give a balm. But all the years of this girl’s life she will ba scorned as the abandoned woman. His honor will charge you that seduction is no justification for killing a man. But I have shown that the defendants had no desire to kill Sherrill, and up to the time they reached the Sherrill home there was no conspiracy nor desire for death. When the boys had in formed themselves they went to this young man’s heme and asked him to right a wrong. By the testimony of several witnesses it is shown that he refused. An altercation was precipitated and ended in the young man’s death. That he was infuriated is testified to by three witnesses and in the tained in Mr. Linn’s address. It was a fearful arraignment of the men and he pronounced their ac tion as foully and cowardly murd erous. Once when he referred to Thomas White as a “brute,” Judge Cooke asked him to retract it, which he did gracefully and with apology to all. The leading phase of Mr. Linn’s speech was excel lent. Solicitor Hammel’s dissertation on the law was a fine thought. He dwelt upon the cheapness of human life. “What are houses, farm-?, lands and goods compared to b.- man life? There is nothing in lightning, tempest or fl rod, so ap palling as the bloody shroud. The blood of Abel calls to ns from the ground. Are not our courts in a measure responsible for this state of affairs.” Solicitor Hammer -ar gued that men should regard the slayer of his fellow man as a felon and that the man who takes human life, something that he cannot re place, should be the worst of crim inals. He told of Henry Watterson’s-; asking a man if he had not been in ( the pen, and the fellow replied that he had, but it was only for] killing a man, not for forgery. - burglary or even petty larceny—, just for killing a man. It was this tendency to disregard the sacred- ness ■ f human life that he wished to discourage above all things, and the proper way to redress all wrongs through the law. Of Congressman Kluttz’s speech let this brief word be the compli ment—it was pronounced a most ega I argument.. never „ ' on trial for that offense. And while perform thii duty to my clients, it is against the law to carry those I propose to show that this jury cannot convict these men. By law, sanctioned by the highest authority, we expect to show that it is not known which one of these men killed Russell Sherrill. I lay it down as an undeniable proposi tion that both men could not have done it, and if there is a doubt in the mind of the jury who did it, they should be acquitted.” After thus addressing the court Judge Montgomery turned his at tention to the jury and argued the sentimental and legal aspect of the case. He said the men had been subjected to such furious cross examinations on account of John Brown, White, is Crazed by the Combination. Championship For Ten Pins Played Last Night. Rev. H.

The combination proved too much for him and he became wild. An officer was sum moned and Brown was taken to the lockup, where he still remains, pleading piteously all the while for more laudanum. The first series of championship games at ten pins was played Tues day night and resulted in the ma chinists taking the first honors.

Suffolk, Va., Sept. 13—John and Emma Lawrence, a white married couple who say they are from Trenton, N. J., at a prelim inary hearing today pleaded gull y of robbing the Southern Express weapons, he is a foolish man who would undertake such a dangerous mission. I have always doubted the wisdom of the Statute against carrying concealed weapons. It gives the outlaw every advantage and places the law abiding man at hii mercy. It has beon argued that there is a law on the statute books against seduction. I was in the legislature if 1883 when this question came up. I helped defeat this law which later passed. I did not want it to go out that here in the State of North Carolina, the home of South ern Chivalry, a law was needed to protect our womanhood. I have a In the desire to entrap the wit nesses, I here paused to note the undignified way in which counsel took advantage of poor Thomas White’s deafness. I have thought today that this affliction was a blessing to him, when he was ex empted from the merciless words of those seeking to deprive him of his liberty and life. There is one thing that I cannot understand, and that is why Dr. Brown, introduced by the State to show the nature of the wounds should not have told which one caused death. I ask his honor to charge you that both wounds could not kill and if there is doubt about it there can be no conviction. Mr. Watson warned the jury that his was the last words for the defendants. “I ask you to remember the evidence and not the eloquent words of Mr. Glenn to follow. He will quote scripture and call often upon the Lord. I hope he won’t fall into Hammer’s error of bring ing old Noah from his grave and make him stand at Sinai. Lawyers should be careful and for that reason I shy at scripture. When I hear men quote scripture to kill their fellow men, for such it is, I think of that part in Richard III, where ‘I sigh and with a piece of scripture, tell her that we must do good for evil and thus I clothe my left this phase of it and it was an ingenious device. Council for the prosecution praised it as a great speech. The close of it, words lost to the world, was a bed of flowers. And this brings the reporter to the visiting great lawyers. Out of courtesy we have subordinated out- great lawyers to the strangers within our gates. When Mr. Glenn arose to con clude the argument,the court room was crowded, interest had reached an intense degree. Mr. Watson’s powerful, beauti ful plea, had made a profound im pression, and frequent allusions to the methods of the prosecution had left no doubt as to their per sonal application. Mr. Glenn was ready and eager for the floor and he began with a quiet interrogation about the cause for the jurors, the public, the friends of all being there. In pas sionate words he rehearsed the cause as given by the witnesses to the action. And it was because of that tragedy that he is here. Replying to the charge that he is pitiless, he said, if this evidence has not satisfied you that these men are guilty, then in the name of the law of my State, turn them out. There are the first and second degrees of murder, manslaughter and excusable homicide. The counsel for the defense had de clared that the prosecution would compromise on the degrees of murder, hoping to get a verdict of murder in the second degree, or manslaughter. I stand here and in the name of this great State,declare that this was murder, damnable murder. I have hung my head in shame to hear a man elevated to the Uni ted States Senatorship, a Cong ressman, an ex judge of the Su perior court and another man one of the brainiest lawyers the State ever produced, give voice to such sentiments. Rather than declare that the man who is guilty of the offense charged against Russell Sherrill, should die instead of being tried, I’d cut off my arm. I never heard in all my experience such sentiments thrown into a jury box. Mr. Glenn is still speaking as we go to press, having been cut short by the dinner hour. He will probably speak an hour when the arguments will have been closed. A synopsis of his great effort will be given tomorrow as well as part of Judge Cooke’s charge, Thirteen Barrels Stolen From Simp son’s Distillery in Davidson Revenue officers are making dil igent search for the party or par ties who last week stole thirteen barrels of whiskey from the Simp son distillery in Davidson county, three miles from the Rowan line.
