MERCY OF COURT
TERRIBLE CASE
Pclzer Mill Village Resident Slaw
His Wife in Brutal
Manner.
Court of general sesBious for Ander
son county adjourned Saturday after
noon after a trying week of hard
work. The court disposed of many
cases and the work expediated by the
buaiuesB-likc manner of Judge Seaae.
The case of Curran Alexander,
charged with murder, waa tried Sat
urday. The d?tendant was foi(nd
guilty with a recommendation to mer
cy. The. case was a long one, and
the defense was ably represented by
Messrs. Dagnall and Prince, who were
appointed by the court to defend the
prisoner.
The evidence in case brought out
the fact that Alexander, resident of
Pelter mill village, cut his wife's
throat with a razor. The murder was
one of the most brutal in the history
of the county. The only eye wit
ness was the ll year old son of Alex
ander who WCB standing in the door of
the room when the murder was en
acted. The little fellow preseuted a
very pitiful appearance on the stand
and told a tale that touched the
hearts of everyone in the court room.
Alexander's defense was based on
temporary insanity..
Alexander went on the stand and
denied everything. He asserted that
his wife cut him and that he did not
know where the knife in his hand
came, from, and that he bad uevter
seen it before.
?The case went to the Jury after two
arguments for the defense and one for
the state. The judge charged the Jury
and after about 20 minutes delibera
tion they returned a verdict of "guilty
with recommendation to mercy."
The sentence of imprisonment for
life was pronounced by tho judge Just
Vore the adjournment of court.
