This was decided tills morning when Judge Cranmer sustained the motion of Solicitor \V. I. Small, made in open court Tues day afternoon. Immediately after the defendant had been arraigned that the case ho moved to some other county for trial, on tho , ground that there wae good reu aon to believe that a fair and im partial trial could not be ob tained in Currituck Count-. ? Jn support of his contention. Solicitor Small presented affi davits to the effect that h?mu1 ment in favor of Doxey had boon so carefully fanned and nursed by the uctlvlties of his friends, that It would be difficult for a Currituck Jury to hear the case, without prejudice against the State. Among those signing af fidavit* to the foregoing effort were R. 8 Walker. CJ. A. Doxey. b. A. Walker and J. C. Gallop On the other hund. tho de fense presented affidavits Trom I Larr?iilck officials Ineludlng f Sheriff Dob Flora. Register of ^ Deeds J. A. Taylor, and W. H. Gallop of the -Currituck County Board of Education to the effect that there was no reason why a fair and Impartial trial could not be had in Currituck County. Af fidavits in the same tenor were signed by N. H. Hampton and P. L. Hampton, brothers of Mrs. Willis A. Doxey. and others. A notable feature of the affi davits offered by Solicitor Small was that they referred to the news BtorleB of the crime and the ap proaching trial carried by the Elizabeth City Independent ax having been used by friends of Doxey fo foster sentiment In his behalf. "It was probably not Intended' by the writer." the solicitor's affi davits Bet forth, "to prejudice the State s case, but It has neverthe less greatly prejudiced the same throughout the County." The affidavits offered by the defense denied that tli - stories appearing In the Independent were prejudicial to the State s ease, declaring that. If some pas sages wight seem so. thcr. were 'U8t M truly other passages which might be quoted equally prejudi cial to the defendant It was al.-o pointed out by counsel for th? defense that"" In the history of courts In this district In the last 40 years only once had It been deemed necessary to move a case from one county to another and that In that case, the celebrated ? UR Harrison kidnapping case, r*he motion for removal was made by the defense without objertlon on the part of the State. The defense also presented an affidavit by the defendant him-' ?elf denying that he was a man of wide acquaintance in Currl .f00"1* ??d representing himself as a man of limited means upon whom the matter of. the ex tra expense of carrying his wit nesses fo another county would work a severe hardship The de-, fendant also denied In his affidav it that his friends had been par ticularly active in his behalf , "I have heard you patlontly. p have considered what you have had to say and the affidavits yon have submitted diligently and I matter ?a'<l Judge Cranmer In making decision for the remoral of tho case.

Immediately follow I rip the ar raignment. Solicitor W. L.

In Currituck County, and presenting affidavits In sup port of his contention. "Have conns* I for the defend ant been furrlshed with copies of these affidavits?" inquired Judge Cranmer. "We have not." said K. F. Ayd lett 'We knew nothing of tha sollritoT's ourpose to move for a new trial." Thereupon Judge Cranmer an nounced that ho would give the| defense until W'dnesdny morning to answer the alb'Katlon'i of the. affidavits and that the court would pass on the solicitor's mo- \ Hon at that time. Doxey In represented by Ayd-i Mt A Simpson nnd by EhrinRhans ie Hall, as strong an srrav of; counsel as Is to be had In Kllza- i beth City.
