TUESDAY’S TESTIMONY IN
MATTHEWS’ PRELIMINARY
At 2 o’clock Tuesday afternoon the
preliminary trial of Policeman M. O.
.uatthews, charged with the murdei
|of Ed C. Turner on the night of
Tuesday, August 11th, began before
uagistrate B. L. Strange, In the city
j court room of the Richmond county
I court house.
ihe place was densely crowded,
i Hn d most Intense interest manifest
trom the very first. The names of
witnesses for the state and defense
were called by Bailiff Rouse, ajid as
they responded were lined up behind
; the bar to be sworn all at the same
,-tlme.
The drat witness to take the stand
was Dr. Will R. Houston, who tes
tified as to the position of Turner's
wounds. Illustrating, with the aid oi
l)r. Charlie Crane, who assisted him
i in performing the autopsy, the exact
| points of entrance and exit,
j Under cross-examination by Mr.
j Picquet he stated that probes would
j not have any effect on the appear
j ance of the wounds, materially, as
any probe that might have been used
was necessarily much smaller than
the wound itself. He stated that he
based uis opinions on knowledge gain
ed mainly from reading, and not from
actual experience in performing au
; topsies. He said the fatal wound
was inflicted by the bullet that en
tered the left shoulder, and at that
point Mr. Picquet endeavored to en
tangle him by asking if a man could
receive such a found while squatting
or leaning with his left side against
a fence. Dr. Houston said he could
|lf the bullet was fired through the
| fence.
Dr, Crane merely corroborated Dr.
Houston's statements and opinions.
He said his opinion was based on
the opinion of the best authorities.
He Bald he had performed four or
five autopsies and had examined many
more wounds on the bodies of living
persons.
In his cross-examination Mr. Pic
quet endeavored to inject a spirit of
doubtfulness into the surgeon's opin
ions. He repeated the fence questions
Dr. Crane said that while he of course
could not state the course of the bul
lets beyoud the peradventure of a
doubt, he was thoroughly satisfied in
ills own mind, from careful and thor
ough examination. Mr. Picquet asked
if a blood vessel or muscle might not
deflect the course of a bullet and the
physician admitted that either one
might.
John Turner on Stand.
John Turner, a companion of Ed
Turner when the latter was shot, next
took the siand. His statement was
about as follows: “I have been in
Augusta two weeks. I joined Ed Tur
ner and Floyd at Plumb’s store, on
McKinne sfreet. We came there
once again, a little later on. We
left in company and went to McKinne
and Market, streets. We passed with
in a few feet of Broggerman and Mat
thews. We went to Lillian Duvall's
house and stayed there about five or
ten minutes. Then wo started back
up Market street. Floyd was in front,
1 in the middle and Ed Turner be
hind. We met Broggerman and Mat
thews, the former in front. After
Floyd and me had passed I "heard one
or two shot 8. 1 turned and saw
Matthews shooting. Turner staggered
against Ihe fence and Matthews con
tinued to shoot. As near as I can
remember, Turner was facing up
Market street, and had his hands
clasped on his breast, like this (il
lustrating). When he staggered he
said: 'Oh! My God.’ I did uot go
back. I dla not see Turner's pistol
and I heard no threats. I had up to
that time taken one or two drinks."
The witness was then subject to a
very close eross-examination by Mr.
Picquet. He asked Turner how many
drinks he had had, and the witness
said he didn't know.
Q "Did you go to Otis Hallman
and tell him you were so drunk you
didn't remember a thing that hap
pened?"
A—-"I did not.”
Q. —“Did you not in recorder’s court
next morning plead guilty to drunk
enness. and state you were so dntnk
you dldu t know what happened?”
Denied Being Drunken.
A.—”l pleaded guilty to being
drunk when Lieut. Brin found me.
That was half an hour after Turner
was shot.”
—'Did you not tell Policeman
Whittle you were drunk and didn't
know what TTkppened?”
A.— "I did not."
Tne attorney at this point asked
the W’ltuess if Turner might not have
had a pistol without his seeing it, and
the witness said such a thing was
possible Turner tes.tiled that he and
Floyd came back alter the shooting
ceased. He said th* three went to
no house, but that of Lillie Duvall's,
and they were not refused entrance,
therefore, at any other place.
Here the lawyer tried his beat to
make -Jie witness say how many
drinks he had. but Turner stuck to
Ills original statement that he didn’t
know.
<J —"Did you see Broggerman and
Matthew* pats Ben Wltlls' place.”
\.—’T did "
O.—“ Did you »t*te to Policeman
K.-nned. you were se drunk you did
net remember what happened?'
A—”l did not.”
Here Mr Picquet endeavored to
make the witness say he would not
swear he didn't have ten drink* An
objection was mf.le by Mr Jackson
and Mr. Picquet said he purposed to
prove that the witness took several
drinks in Plumb's place and went
to Broad street and took several
drinks. He tried to make Turner
say where he got the liquor, and Mr.
Jackson’s objection to this question,
on the ground of irrelevancy, was sus
tained.
John Floyd Testified.
John Floyd, the companion of the
I urners on the uight of the shoot
ing, stated: "I met Mr. Ed. Tur
ner in Plumb's store and we left
there with John Turner and went
down McKinne to Market. When we
reached Market Ed. Turner wanted to
go down, I did not want to go and
started to talking low to John Tur
ner. We went with him and was
not gone over 10 minutes. I was
ahead of the Turners and passed Mat
thews, but nothing was said. Tho
next thing, i heard a shot, i did not
go back but went up to McKinne
street and wept to Broad and then
came back to the scene of the homi
cide. As I started away John Tui
ner came to me and told me who was
shot. I talked to Mr. Whittle and
several others and did not go home
until about 2:30 o'clock that moruing.
suppose that I was 20 steps from
Turner and I had taken only one
drink that night. I did not g» be
hind a tree and I did not show any
body the tree that I was behind. John
Turner was not drunk, but he was
drinking."
H. T. Fowler testified: "I was in
bed at the time of the shooting and
it took me 1 suppose about 3 or 4
minutes to get there. When I ar
rived there was about 5 or 6 people
there and Matthews and someone
whom 1 did not know was striking
matches. Matthews went over to
Turner and seemed to pick up some
thing, i can’t state positively that
he picked up anything at all. I was
with in 5 feet of Matthews at the
time and 1 am not mad with Mat
thews for running some women away
from my machine. I did not state
that 1 saw Matthews take something
from Turner's hip-pocket.”
Joe Ray testified: "I was there
three minutes after the shooting and
I did pot see any pistol. Matthews
was looking for something and tin
pistol had not been found."
Did Not See Pistol.
Isaac Levy testified: "I run a
wagon-yard on Reynolds street and
when 1 heard the shooting 1 ran
through my yard to Market street. I
saw several people standing there and
1 asked who was shot and they to.d
me. 1 did not see any pistol. A
man in unltorr.i told me to get back,
and I did so.”
Officer Broggerman testified: “I
met Matthews on -he corner of Jones
and McKinne streets at 11:05 o'clock
and he told me that Turner was in
the vicinity and that he was drinkinr;
| but that he had done nothing so far.
Matthews said that he had a short
conversation with him. We passed
I down the street to Market and as we
, passed Willis' place Turner made a
| vile epithet. 1 told Matthews not to
1 pay any attention to It. We passed
' on down the street to Market and
t were standing on the corner when
three men passed and turned down
Market. I walked back to Reynolds
j street and told Matthews that It was
time for me to go in. He said: Lets
walk back down because Turner is
| liable to raise a disturbance it,those
women won t let him in those houses.
We were a little past Rosenthal s big
gate when I passed I. Turner and
i Floyd and Ed. Turner was behind
them. Ed. Turner was walking on
the edge of the sidewalk. I was
ahead of Matthews and Turner was
stooping as though to sneak past
: and he was watching Matthews and
! myself. I was about one-half step
past him when i heard the report of
a pistol J. Turner and Floyd were
up the street, Floyd behind a tree and
