Grand Jury Indicts Trio In Carellas Murder
Douberly Brothers’
Attorney Says Clients
Can Prove Innocence
“NOT AT SCENE OF CRIME LONG ENOUGH TO COMMIT
DEED” CLAIMS ULMER; KENT’S LAWYER RETICENT.
An indictment for murder was re
turned by the Chatham County
Grand Jury this morning in the case
of Willie Douberly, 24; his brother,
Leroy, 23, and Edward Kent, 23,
charged with the slaying on June 7
of Peter Carellas, prominent local
Greek-American citizen and business
man.
Anderson G. Ulmer, attorney for
the Douberly brothers, said this
morning when interviewed by a Sa
vannah Daily Times reporter that
his clients deny having made any
confession of the crime to county po
lice, and disclaim any implication in
the killing. Lengthy questioning by
police made Willie Douberly so
nervous, said Mr. Ulmer, that his
mind is a complete blank as to what
he said or did after the first several
hours of grilling. Mr. Ulmer intimat
ed that Kent, who claims to have
been an eye-witness to the slaynig,
and who related the story which re
sulted in the arrest of the Douber’ey
brothers, was not even with the
the Douberly# on the afternoon the
crime is alleged to have taken place.
Witnesses have been located, says
Mr. Ulmer, who can corroborate the
Douberly - * claim that they had not
been out of town long enough to have
committed the alleged crime on the
aftemon Carellas was slain.
Denies Death Report
A report claiming While Douberly
has served 13 months for killing his
brother se.eral yenrs ago was errone
ous, declared Mr. Ulmer. The affair,
he says, was an unfortunate accident,
and Douberly was not punished in
any way at all for it. Mr. Ulmer
added that Willie Douberly has been
under great mental stress ever since
the accident, and can remember
nothing of what went on at the

CAT SCRATCHES
CHILD ON ARM
Little Dolores Clarke, age five of
202 East Walburg street, was given
treatment at Telfair Hospital about 9
o’clock last night from scratches on
her right arm from a ca.t Police of
ficers who investigated said later the
cat died. The animal was taken to
the city pound where examination
was to be made today to determine if
the cat was mad. Early this after
noon no report had been received of
the results of the examination by the
Health office.
Hospital attendants were told
that when another child “handed”
the cat to the Clark girl, the latter
was bitten. The animal was said to
have been foaming at the mouth at
the time. Because neighbors had re
cently reported a mad dog in that
section and the view expressed the
canine may have infected the cat,
examination of the dead cat was re
quested.
MARKET NOTES
Opening—Quiet, prices up frac
tionally to one point in a selective
market.
Opinion—Hornblower and Weeks,
nothing more serious than a period
of preparation for a renewed attempt
to absorb offerings which proved a
barrier to higher prices in /pril ap
pears to be taking place.
Grain—While no improvement in
northwest crops, hedging pressure
from winter wheat is having a some
what depressing influence. Sincere be
lieve any sharp breaks should be used
to buy.
Coming Events—There has been a
sharp increase in Mottor Products
earnings and indications that the
company will report between $2.75
and $3 per share for the first half
of the year. At the present time the
stock is paying a $2 dividend and we
expect this rate to soon be increased
to as 3 basis, ’he stock is behind and
should vork up to around the 50
