Court Case (Coatiued from ragt 1> Mid that when Mrs. Grantham came to the door her "lipatick was ?meared, hair tousled looking, her tipper was not xipped and the bed was churned up." She surmised that Mrs. Gran tham was wearing a "blue woolen dress". Officer WUsoa testified that when he and the others went up to the motel door, there were no lights on in the room. He estimated that they waited 5 to 7 minutes before the door was opened. He said, "The lady was combing her hair when the door was op ened." He further testified that the top button on the back of her dress was buttoned, but the zipper below it was not zipped. He added that It looked as though someone had been sleeping in the bed, but no one else was in the room. Then the officers went to the bathroom door and knocked. Then was no answer. When offi- I cer Jenkins asked Wilson to go to the motel office for a key, Wilson i testified, be said that Mrs. Gran tham asked Hall to come out of < the bathroom. Hall was fully dressed, he said. Under cross-examination, Wilson | said that after their second knock, a light went on in the room. He i said he couldn't tell whether the dress the woman was wearing was blue or green. Hamilton then , showed Ihe officer the top of a blue dress. He asked him to point out the zipper that he saw unzipped on the night of April 3. The dress top had no zipper. It had buttons on it Chief Moore was the next wit ness. He said that he was handed a warrant to be served and at about 1 a.m. the morning of April 4 went to the motel office to re port to the motel owners that he had to serve a warrant. The warrant, he said, was made out with the name "Emily Lee" and he didn't learn until later the woman's full name. When he knocked on the door, ? woman answered, "Just ? minute." He Mid be knocked again and an nounced that police were at the door. Chief Mo ore said that a lady came to the door and be told bcr lie had a warrant and asked (or D. J. Hall. The officer said she re plied, "You don't see him here, do you?" He said that he, officers Wilson and Jenkins went in and Jenkins tried the bathroom door. It was locked. Moore asked the woman again if D. J. Hall was there and he said the didn't answer. When Wilson was asked to go to the motel office (or a key, the chief said that Mrs. Grantham went to the bathroom door and asked Hall to come out. The chief said he took the two of Lhem to the police station where Hall posted bond. Under cross-examination, chief Moore said that Mrs. Grantham "looked all right" when she came to the door. He said Hall had told him that he and Mrs. Grantham had had dinner la Swanaboro that niiht. He testified that Hall'i reputa tion was good aa tar a* be knew and that be had never aeen Mrs. Grantham prior to that night No more witnesses were put on the stand. Hamilton informed the court that Mra. Grantham sella ada (or a radio station, often cornea to the county on business and that ber motel room was both business of fice, living room and bedroom. He commented that "rooms in the Sir Walter are used for buaineas more than anything else." The Sir Wal ter is the name of a hotel upstate. '"Ike green-eyed mauler played a part in this," Hamilton said. "She (Mrs. Hall) followed them to that room. He (Mr. Hall) had a right to be in that room, be had a right to do anything he wanted to with her (Mrs. Grantham). The state has failed to prove that they were occupying that room for im moral purposes." Solicitor Taylor said that be doubted that Hall was locked in the bathroom from the time he and Mr*. Grantham entered the motel room. Jadge Morris observed wryly, "Maybe she locked him in the bath room to protect her reputation." Solicitor Taylor laughed but con tended that Hall and "a beautiful young woman were not on a Sun day school picnic in a dark room in a motel at Atlantic Beach." Jndge Morris, In a rare and brief flight of romanticism quoted the Bible and poetry, and then agreed with Hamilton that the state hadn't shown that any immorality had ac tually been proven in state's evi dence. Hamilton became angry when the judge allowed Taylor's request for a jury trial as to Hall. "This man's been harassed enough," Hamilton declared. "The solicitor is just engaging in persecution of the de fendant who haf been wrongfully embarrassed. This is the most un fair thing 1 have ever seenl" Hamilton and his clients left the court room.
