IN GUILH PLEA
McCullough Is Sent to Prison
For Eight Years By
Judge Fite.
The famous McCullough criminal as
sault case, tried twice in Gordon county
before Judge Fite, and twice reversed
by the court of appeals, and out of
which grew the contempt rule under
which Judge Fite was fined SSOO by the
court of appeals, came up for a third
hearing In Gordon court today, and was
disposed of by the defendant agreeing
to a plea of guilty, providi d his sen
tence of twenty years, as originally im
posed, be reduced to eight years.
A motion to disqualify Judge Fite
was overruled, and the case came up
in regular order. Solicitor Maddox
stated to the court that the woman in
the case now is in delicate health and
that he would not care to bring her
into court again on this case, if it might
be avoided. Consultation between law
yers representing the state and McCul
lough resulted in a plea of guilty and a
content verdict of'eight years in the
penitentiary for McCullough.
Judge Fite said he was reluctant to
affree to this, but in the circumstances
of the woman’s state of health he would
do so, and he entered a court order ac
cordingly.
This ends the famous case, as no ap
peals will be taken to the higher courts
The defendant will be taken to the
state farm at once

Detectives are searching for several

other valuables stolen by burglars from
the home of Dr. A. F. Sherrill, a Col
lege Park minister. Dr. Sherrill’s ho .ie
in West Walker avenue nearly was
wrecked by the marauders, the whole
house being ransacked. Furnishings,
wearing apparel and other articles were
scattered over the floor.
The jewels were taken from a strong
box, which was battered open with a
ham mer.
Dr. and Mrs. Sherrill were spending
the day In Atlanta. The burglars, in
broad daylight, and in plain view of
numerous residences, forced open a
window, and, climbing inside, helped
themselves. The burglary was not dis
covered until Dr. and Mrs. Sherrill re
turned home.
Most of the jewels were highly prized
by Mrs. Sherrill.
