(10 SESSION;;
SUPERigR:COUHT
Held Yesterday. Jadge Ferguson ,
Indisposed. Greatly Improv
ed Last Night.
v
Owing to the fact that Judge Gar
land T. Ferguson was indisposed, there,
was no session yesterday of Craven
County Superior Court which is in ses
sion here this week for the trial- of
criminal cases. A reportfrom the
place at which he is stopping
last night stated that the Judge was
grtatly improved and in all probability
the session will be resumed this morn
ing at the usual time.
The grand jury was kept busy all dur
ing the day hearing evidence and re
turning bills, but none of these were
made public. The case of young Bar
ne'.t, the young man who embezzled
$24') from the Hall Tailoring Company
a few weeks ago, is attracting consider
able interett. The grand jury has not
yet investigated this case aid it will
doubtless be the latter part of the week
before it is brought to trial. There are
still a large number of eases on the
docket but the majority of these are ef
minor conrequence and can easily be dis
pose j of within the next three days.
In the cae of the State vs Addison
Toler, of No. 2 ..Township, charged
with abduction, ti e jury returned a
verdict of- not guilty. This case was
tried on Tuesday ;ind tha Jury remain

Says That She Knows Nothing Iu
Regards to the Poisoning of
Her Former Husband.
Mrs. Leone Casey, wife of Burrill Ca
sey, both of whom are now connned ia
Craven county jail awaiting the action
of the grand jury on a warrant charg
ing them with poisoning her former -hus
band, Mr. Joseph Whitty, of -Lane's
Chapel, was interviewed late yester
day afternoon by a Journal reporter.
When the reporter was shown into her
cell, on the first floor Mrs. Casey, who
is a very homely woman, wai sitting on
the aide of the iron bed which the cell
contained,
She said that she was born in Lenoir
county on Jan. 28. 1891, that she lived
there until 1908 when she married Mr.
Joseph hitty, then they moved to
Craven county. That in all their mar
ried life they had lived happily and had
never had any misunderstandings. That
after her marriare to Mr. Whitty she
met Cajey, and that all during the time
that she lived with Mr. Whitty, Casey
was in the habit of coming to their
home at different times, and that there
waj no objection from her husband. She
said that several weeks prior to his
death Mr. Whitty bad been in ailing
health and that his demise did not come
unexpectedly. That on the day that
Mr. Whitty died Casey visited her home
and that about three weeks after his
death she and Casey were married.
That after Mr. Whitiy's death there
was considerable talk among the neigh
bors that she had poisoned bim, but as
she knew this was untrue she paid but
little attention to it. That she did not
know until yestwdty morning that his
body bad been exhumed and that the
stomach had been examined by a phy
sician. That she was utterly dumfound
ed when Chief of Police Rouse, of Do
ver, called at her home Monday after
noon and placed her under arrest and
brought her to this city. That she did
not know at the time that her husband
was in jail here on the same charge,
and that since her incarceration here
had nof beeu allowed to see him or io
communicate with him in any way.
That she was not in the least afraid
that if the case wai ever brought to
trial that they wovtid be convicted, be
cause there could possibly be no evi
dence that either of them had caused
his death.
Tkenat a whole she did not seem to
be duly concerned in regards to the
grave charge which they are feeing. At
no time during her story did she f alter,
and once or twice she became amused
and laughed outright. The only thing
that she seemed to be troubled about
wai the fact that she was not allowed
to see or .talk to her husband The
grand jury has not yet asen up this
case, but will doubtless do so sometime
during today, ami the outcome of their
investigation will bi nude known tomorrow.

EXHONQRATED
Coroner's Jury Held Inquest Over
the Body Of David Fpnville
Yesterday Morning.
Yesterday morning the Coroners jury
composed of the following gentlemen.
Messrs E. B. oStckbum; foreman, C.
P. Bartling, C. E. Ellison, C. T. Pum
phrey, M. D. W. SUvennon and D. P
Henry, beld an inquest over the body
of David Fonvill, the young negro boy
who was shot and killed at hU home in
Duffytown Tuesday night by Charles
Latham, also colored. At the conclus
ion of the inquest they rendered the
following verdjet.
'We, this Coroner's jury empanelled
this 14th, day of June 1911. to investi
gate the cause of th death of Dav id
Fonville, colored, hereby render the fol
lowing verdict: That death resulted
fcom a gunshot wound in the brain at
the handd of one Charles Latham, age
12 ytars. Same was without malice
and aforethought."
It was proven that the two boys were
the best of friends and that they had
been playing together on the eve of the
tragedy. The murdered boy's mother
Btatedthat she was convinced that the
shooting was accidental and she was
co-operated by a number of other wit
nesses. Young Latham stated that
tbey wererhaving a playful dispute at
the time the shooting occured and that
when he picked up the gun he had no
idea that its was loaded. With such
evidence as this before them the Co-o-
ner's jury had no alternative b it to
turn the boy who fired the faUl load
loose.
