VERY, VERY, SENSATIONS L A Beautiful but Wayward Y< u;,j Woman Break* Many Hearts and Wrocka liar own atd many Other Lives. Chattanooga, To in.. Feb. 20. Th© waywardness and wilful ness es pretty Annie Skelton, now celebrated as the young woman it , one of the most sensational mur der cases in the South, not only dragged her name before the pub lic and stained with blood the fair honor of her family, but it broke more than one heart which had loved and believed in her. She had a number of sweethearts . One of these was John D. Free man, a young man well known in this section, and now reading Isa at Tuscaloosa, Ala. Mr. Freeman knew her in her girlheod when the purity and innocense manifest in her charactei and shining through the windows of her soul, made her life as beautiful as her person, and he loved her passionately. She treated him shamefully, though permitting an engagement He would travel hundreds of miles to see her, only to find her favo - iug some transient friend, break ing an engagement for the even ing with Freeman to receive the passing caller. Yet his love was constant and his faith in her vir tue implicit, even under the strain of terrible shocks. Some time last summer Miss Skelton visited in Chattanooga when, as at all other times, she was a guest at the s,vellest social functions, Oue night a swell dance was given at the Mountain City Club. After the dance, as gossip whispered, she was accompanied to her hotel by her escort and at a late hour the two were asked to leave the hotel. Freeman heard th s while down in Alabama, and came to Chattanooga to investigate, meantime sending tor his engage ment ring. But he managed to satisfy him self of the falseness of this report and recalled his request. Then to win her forgiveness, he purchas d from Fischer, jeweler of this city, a diamond bracelet, costing $l5O. What his feelings were there fore when he learned of her leav ing home with Ross, can only be imagined. But his purpose in the premises seem to be well shown by his expressions in a letter to a friend this morning after Ross was killed. Freeman wrote: “Your telegram to hand. I am glad of it. It is what I intended doing myself if I could have found him. and I don’t care who knows it,” The pieliminary trial closed to day with brilliant speeches by the counsel on each side, to a packed courthouse. Bail was given the four boys in the sum of $7,000 each, The final trial is set for Feb ruary 28th, when the circuit court convenes. Owing to unenviable and un fortunate connections with the killing, as aiding and having sym pathy in the same. Judge Tally is pronounced incompetent to hear the case. "Rich with sensations and reple'e with surprises as .this now celebra ted case has been the proceedings at the final trial promise to equal, if not surpass iu new and unex pected things Miss Shelton who is now lying very ill in Cincinnati, w ill, by that time, be able to appear on the wi - ness stand and tell her own story which cannot be otherwise than decidedly interesting. Not less se, will be the testimo ny of a number of men who are to be eubpoened. Two ot these young men live iu Chattanooga and are members of the Mountain City Club.
