(From Friday's State) Tlio supreme court yesterday bunded down 9(1 <qpi)lion dismissing tlxo up peal of Edmund I> Jtttfhaiu and ftff|NU. ing the lower court verdk't. The court dismissed ftll the objections- ,..Uk<m1 t>.v defense counsel aw (0 an unfair trial and unjust charging by Judge Memmlnjiw. OhW Justice (iarjp -wrote the opinion and Atftociato Justkv Oothmn eou VUfivd. Justice Franer wrote a sep lira to concurring opinion. Higlmiu was convicted of killing his brother. I,. Smiley Dlghafn, the tragedy ocourrli'g near PumpUco on Jauuary 1". He was chared with the | murder' of Smiley Bighnm, his mother, Mrs. L. S. Bigham ; his sister, Mrs. Margery lllaek, a no Mrs. Mack's two adopH-d ohtMrcu, I,eo and John Me <Vaokcn. lie lms never been tried Tor tin* Killing or any members of the family except L.

II Ixl) km has boon ! ? ,ho house (it the penitentiary wince-, a few days following his eon. vict ion. ! I*i?rl?uui will t*> carried to Florence county at the next term of general sessions court for resentencing. The crime was one of the most re volting in the history of Florence county and great interest has been kept up In the ease. The first theory advanced was that Smiley Blgharn had killed' the members of his fam ily and then committed suicide, but an investigation resulted i? tb? ar rest of Edmund Bigham ami later his conviction. After his . conviction Iligham went boforo the supreme court on n habeas corpus proceeding, claiming that ho had never been tried, In that the Flor. ence court was unlawful due to the fact that Judge Mcuimtnger continued the cotft* Tohger than the ttpm was supposed to have run. Thffsuprcme court dismissed tlijs plea and Bigham, then wont before the cfturt in regular appeal at the fall term of 1921. In the eplnlou handed down by the court it is clearly, stated that all of the objections raised are without I grounds for reversing the circuit) court The refusal to grant a change! ot venue was proper, the court says, and adds that Bigham received the ben- 1 cfit in Florence of tho prejudice against Smiley Bighaui, who had boon tried for a "revolting murder," but ac quitted. 0 Edmund Bfgham claime<l Smiley I Bigham had killed the members of the family and then committed suicide,1 and one objection raised was that Judge Memmlnger" charged improper ly on this point as to suicide, i-ci-A vm of Judge Memmlngcr's charge ''as to this case," was objected to, but the court says the charge waa absolute ly just and was not prejudicial to Blg bam. ? Probably Out- moHtr Important object tion was that Judge Memmlnger did , not chal-ge the jury that Bigham was clothed with a presumption of Inno cence, hut the court ?ay? Judge Mom | linger did make this clear in part of charge. | As to the language used by the judge to Attorney King the court says Mr. | King did not speak court language and that Juge Memminger was cor rect in stopping Mr. King when he did stop him, adding that a judge may lose control of his court within half a minute If he does not take immediate 1 o*nrgo of any situation arising.
