BLIND MAX ACQUITTED.
Was Charge<J With Murder of Wife,
Unintentional, He Says.
-Macon, Ga., Nov. 25.?Claude G.
Creason, bling organ grinder who
shot; and killed his wife jhere in
June, w^s acquitted late today.
The jury was out an hour and a
half. When the verdict was read,
Creason arose and shouted "praise
Cod from Whom all blessings flow,"
and then thanked each juryman. After
being freed Creason said he would
return with his brothers to their
home in South Carolina.
Shot at Man, He Says.
Macon, Nov. 24.?Before a jury in
superior court tonight, C. G. Creason
told the story of the shooting on June
27, in which his wife, Essie, whom
he married in 1913, met death.
"I am as innocent of the charge of
murder as any of you," said the blind
man.
He then recited the incidents in his
married life where others had sought
to upset his home. He claimed to
nave appealed to the police to protect
his home. Then he brought *their
four year old girl, Evaline, into the
case. "I had been selling newspapers
on trie street,'' he said, "'ana Evaline
came running to me on that Sunday
afternoon and said, "Old Dan and
Charlie have forced their way into
mama's room arid are trying to kiss
her," ,
V Creason told of rushing back to
his apartment and of ordering the
men away. He said they stood on
the street below, cursing him, and it
was then, he said, that he drew his
pistol and started to shoot through
the window.
"I wanted to run them away," he
said. "When I had finished firing,
my little girl said: 'Mama has fallen
out of the window.'
Other witnesses said that Creason's
wife was sitting in the second story
window and that she fell to the pavement
with the first shot.
JOINED IN CHASE.
Alleged Slayer Gets Behind Bars Af
ter Following Bloodhounds.
^Meridian, .Miss.. Nov. 25.?.Roy .Miner,
22-year-old son of a wealthy
manufacturer of this city, and living'
on a farm eight miles southeast, was!
a member of the posse that followed
a bloodhound that trailed'the alleged
slayer of .Mrs. Lewis Morris,
56, to his home today. Miner was
immediately placed under arrest by
Sheriff Martin, and with his father9
in-law, J. E. Johnston, 55, are in in
jail pending further investigation.
Airs. Morris was found dead in a
con field on the Johnston farm with
virtually her entire head blown away
by a load of shot fired at close range.
The body was found bv Johnson, who
reportec. to the officers and explained
that he had heard Mrs. Morris "order
an unknown man from her premises
yesterday," after which, he stated,
he had heard the report of a shot
gun. Johnson's arrest followed shortly
after young Miner's, when the
sherif received information that the
families had been quarreling the previous
day.
Miner's conduct in joining the posse
and following the bloodhound has
taken precedence over the killing in
the excitement that prevails here. It
is stated by the sheriff that the dogs
were iaken t( the spot where the body
was found and immediately took ur
the fail. After following a circuitoi
3 4ouLe for some distance, the
dogs went direct to the Miner home
and to the bed occupied by Miner las!
night. Miner and Johnson have made
no statin ents. The young man was
married lest May. His wife is bul
18 years old.
