THE WIltTF. TRIAL.
Argument, of Counsel Will Alt met a
largo Crowd Today. |
Columbus, Ga~ Nov. 22.—Tomorrow
morning tho attorney* in tho Whlto,
murder trial will be ready to begin
anew the great battle on which they
have been engaged the past week, and
It Is expected that the «pecche» of tho
distinguished lawyers will draw such
crowd* as have not been in the court
house in years. The leading counsel
■ for the defendant. Col. Carey J. Thorn
ton, is one of the best known criminal
lawyers In the state, and his effort is
looked forward to with a great deal of
Interest. Col. -Thornton .says he Is con-
lldent that hla client will not be con
victed; that It will be Impossible, under
the evidence, and that he Is entirely
satisfied with the outlook. Solicitor
Price Gilbert anil plain, honest but
handsome Jim Worrlll will shell the
woods for the prosecution. Jim Wor
rlll (don’t mister nor colom-l him unless
a row Is wantdd) ^--s not take a back
seat for any of them, and he Is.one of
the shrewdest and most eloquent law
yers In the state. The solicitor has
been quite unwell during the trial and
Is not able to cope with the others from
a physical standpoint, but his friend*
and admirers will not be disappointed,
and Col. Grigsby Thomas Is a lawyer
of fine ahllitlcs and his speech promises
to be a good one.
