Supreme Court Ordnrs Mm Huvk To
Florence For Resentence.
(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

murder' of Smiley Bighnm, his mother,

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.
