OUA CRIMINAL COURT
(Continued from 1st page)
?on of C Q Piatt and only six'oen
years of -age. He told a straight
story of the affair, about as follows:
With several others was at a party
given at Mrs Ellen Thomas's on
Saturday night Jan. 28. h, 1911,
naving some music and singing, and
three Nance boys, Willie, Lee and
Winn, and one Holden boy came in
and acted as if they were drunk.
\\\ the nartv in the house excepting
these boys left the room and went
on the back porch. One Nance boy
struck the window and Lizzie
Thomas said: "Now you break that
window," and Lee Nance said: 4,I
will pay for it," if it is not over
three dollars," and then the three
Nance boys went out on the back
porch where the party that had left
the room had gathered and asked the
tfirls who put thern up to say what
they had. They said no oue did and i
tho.y be#an to curse the Little Iiiver
boys and Mrs Thomas asked Mr
Potter to ?fet them quiet and restore
peace, and D Li Potter then
ask them and oleaded with them in
a nice quiet way to be quiet and not
curse in the presence of the ladies,
and they kept ri^ht on, and Willie
Nance cau^nfc D R Potter in the
collar and looked as if he was cufctic^
at him, D R Potter said he
would shoot him if he did not turn
him loose and he Wiliie Nanco kept
ritfht on cuttincr at him and D R
" - * * 1 L. - _ . : 11 L
.footer snoi nun, anu nu sun u?iu i
his collar, and he shot him the
second time. Then Nance turned !
him loose and ran behind the kitchen
and fell. Mr D K Rotter being Mrs
Thomas son-in-law is the reason she
asked him to restore quiet.
The Solicitor tried hard to break
down the testimony of this witness,
but he did not succeed. Miss Minnie
Thomas, a daughter of Mrs
Ellen Thomas was swofn and testified
in efTect as follows:
Stated that on Saturday night
Jan 22th herself Mr Rice, Lizzie and
Mr Verecn were standing up singing
and playing, and Victor Bessent
was sitting off helping them sing.
Four drunk men, Willie, Lee and
Winn Nance, and one Holden boy
came in and said they had come
there to do and say what they pleased.
The party that was enjoying
the party went out for some water

went out where they were, and began
cursiug and was asked by Mr D
K Potter not to do so as this was a
widow lady's hou^e, and she hadn't
been well long, and they said they
had come out there to do and say
what they pleased, and began cursing
aud the mother came out and
asked the girls to come in, and witness
said ''My Lord, what will we
do"? and she run into the house
and about that time the shooting
occurred. She told the boys when
they first came in that they were
not invited there and ih3y had
better go on back.
J T Ward calicd for the defense
testified that the Nance boys passed
his place on their way out to Mrs
Thomas' and were drinking ans using
bad language, He was a good
witness, and took the cross questions
of the solicitor ail in good
humor,
Victor Cox swore that he saw
these boys at Little River the same
night before the killing, and that
they were drinking, lie saw them
fighting a negro in the store of Mr
B N Gore the same night before
they went out to Mrs Thomas'.
Rev Bryant was called to testify
that at the request of others he went
out to Mrs Thomas'to help quell the
trouble which it was said was going
on there He was in a party consisting
of several citizens of Little
River,
The State undertook to try to
show that Nance was shot in the
back of the arm the first time, and
that he wheeled round and was shot
the second time through the heart.
The defense produced severel witnesses
showing that the bullet wound
in the arm of the dead man was in
the front part of the upper arm near
the lower end of the large muscle,
/entering in front and breaking the
| bone in the arm.
Other witnesses for the defense
*? - i 11 i _ - rn i a \ r
were Mrs TTtien inompvon, a. \*
Hessent John Osborne I) M Waters.
The case was taken up in the late
afternoon on Tuesday and was concluded
in the forenoon on Wednesday.
The defendant was represented
by H 11 Woodward, and the
State by the solicitor, Hon Walter
H Wells.
