The following from the Green vllle 1 >alh' Neww <?f October tilth Icllrt of the killing and arrests following: Sensations crowded upon one anoth er at the Jarnagtn Inquest which was re-ojiened yesterday at one o'clock hy Coroner W. I*. Taylor on the ground of after-discovered eyldenee and ?which resulted In a verdict that charges three men and a woman with the death of Mrs. h. C. Jarnlgun who was ran over hy an automobile and almost instantly killed on the night of October 22, 1910. vThe verdict of the coroner's Jury that Mrs. Jarnagin came to her death at the hands of Frank Cunningham, John llallcy. John Douk and MIhs Noette Neese' was returned after Sheriff llendrlx Rector and thirteen other witnesses had been examined. None of them had testified ?t the pre vious inquest on the day after the accident, when It was the sense of the Jury that the woman was killed by an automobile, but the occupants of the ear were unknown to thein. Immediately after the coroner's In- 1 qnest yesterday a warrant was sworn out charging the three men and the woman with murder and entrusted with ? slierlff Hector to be served. John tialley, who conducts a garage at 201 Richardson street, was the llrsf to be arrested, lie was pla<*cd In jail yesterday afternoon. James Jio'ak. aj member of the tlrin of IM>nk (V Me- j Kecnle. plumbers, was arrested irext. j After he Was lodged in jail Sheriff Rector started In his autoThohllc to drive to Marietta, fifteen miles north of Greenville, to apprehend the girl in the ease, and also Frank Cunning ham. a young farmer about 21 years old who lives near Travelers Rest. After driving about !15 miles Sheriff Hector returned to Greenville about midnight last nlglit with Noette Neese the pretty 10-year old girl who is be ing held In connection \Vlth Mrs. .Tar da gib's death. The young woman was served with the warrant at her home' above Marietta. The Sheriff reported i that she seemed somewhat disturbed by the shock and refrained from dls- * cussing the case on the waye to the : Greenville Jail. Frank Cunningham was not at his borne whent the officers arrived. "Doc" Cunningham reported that bis son had 1 cone bunting and was expected to re- 1 turn early in the morning. He told the officer that he would personally bring , his buy to jail this- ?morrdnsr mvd Willi this- assurance Mr. Rector left. The defendants were not placed mi flie stand vesterday and the first they learned of the serious oiiartre was when Sheriff Rector served the war rant. So heavy was the blow to Mr. T>oak that lie staggered under the strain and could scarcely speak for u few moments ufter Sheriff Rector Imparled the uuwh" to hU*> riF tlu> (if flee late yesterday afternoon. At ffrnt ho denied emphatically thai he wa* !ii the car that run over Mrs. Jarna glu and reiterated what he told the officer** on -the second day after (he accident, when Sheriff (teeter had the four under suspicion. Ho admitted that ho was one of I lnv party of four which was In (Jreen vlllo on the Sunday night that Mrs. Jnrungln waa killed. They were rid ing in -Mi'- < <unnlngham's automobile, and iio told that they went to Hyrne'a stable on Hampton avenue and there got a man to go out and huy a quart ??f whlakey. lie admitted that they drank the whiskey during the even ing, hut said he waa Htm* that thejt did rtok drive oy.y Rutherford street at the place where? the accident <*? >uii.(| John Bailey told the officers, they say,, that he was In the hack scat of the automobile and that Cunningham wan driving.

He went t> Cunningham's home In the upper pari of the county and Investigated, after having found what hp termed "dam aging clues" in the city. This hap iH'iied shortly after the tragedy and for nearly a month the officer has worked quietly but relentlessly on the case. Ills Investigation was not con fined only to OreenvlIlA city^ but lie went as far as North (-aro)lnu to "run down" a certain dw, The Sheriff, It Is understood, was not quite ready to bring the matter to a head, but he announced during the progress of the inquest yesterday that lie has other witnesses whose names will l?e turned over to the solicitor for summons when the case goes to the grand jury for consideration. He stated a week or so ago that lie was being handicapped In his search on account of the interference of an other county officer, and alleged difference took a sensational turn at the inquest yesterday when the sTierlff openly accused ltural Policeman Bal leuger of interfering with him. He also charged that, the rural officer made' the assertion that he would "bust the old thing up before he would see Sheriff Hector make any arrests In the case." The Sheriff sarcastically referred to Mr. Balllnger as "Hawk shaw." the comic detective. The Inquest was begun at 1 o'clock In the Undertaking establishment of Hamseur- McAfee Co. After most of the witnesses had been examined, a i recess was ordered until Sheriff Kec- \ tor appeared. He t?>ok the stand as the ttnnl witness. The Jury retired fthd aT-'l ter a . short deliberation returned it \ verdict at 2:45 to the effect that Mrs.] .larnagin came to her death as the re sult of Injuries sustained by an auto mobile being driven h.r the thre?# men and. tin; woman who were nupicd in the warrant which Sheriff Hector had served last night.
