GEORGIAN, FREED
IN MURDER CASE,
SLAYS HIMSELF
Rome, Oct. 8.—Cager Landrum
Gordon county farmer, who some
years ago was charged with killing
i his neighbor, Jack Davis, in a quar
rel over a school election, yesterday
shot and killed himself at his home
near Adairsville, according to re
ports reaching here late today.
Landrum was tried on a charge
of murder in 1912 and convicted of
manslaughter. On a new trial he
was acquitted in Floyd superior
court and later moved to
county. He is said to have been in
ill health and also to have brooded
much over the tragedy in which ,he
is said to have figured more than 1 12
years ago. He is survived by his
widow and eight children, all of
whom were at home when he killed
himself.
HIS NOTORIETY.
ii There goes our most noted
citizen,” said the landlord of the
Petunia Tavern, indicating an unim
pressive passerby. “He has been a
for nearly every office in
the catalog, and is noted for not
getting any of them. i
