Beach B. Epting Is Not Guilty
of Complicity in Boyce Killing
Memphis. Jan. 23.—Beach B. Ept-1
ing, charged with complicity in the J
killing of A1 O. Boyce Jr., who was
shot to death by J. B. Sneed. was
found "not guilty" by a jury here to-
day.
Sneed killed Boyce in Amarillo
Sept. 14. 1912. Epting was charged
wiili having assisted Sneed in his al-
leged plans for the shooting.
In the trial Epting testified that he
went to Amarillo with sneed as his
servant and that Sneed "had misled
him."
At exactly 10 o'clock this morning
the jury in the Epting case returned
a verdict of not guilty. i^ast night
after reading the charge, Judge Na-
bers sent the jurors to their rooms
and later they sent back word they
would not consider the case until this
morning. At 9:30 this morning they
were again sent out, and at 10 o'clock
returned the verdict above.
Although Judge Nabers told the
spectators he wanted no demonstra-
tion when the verdict was read, there
was some stamping of feet in the
rear of the court room.
The next chapter in the Sneed case

Must Believe It
WHEN WELL-KNOWN McKINNEY
PEOPLE TELL IT SO PLAINLY.
When public endorsement is made
by a representative citizen of McKin-
ney the proof is positive. You must

man or child with any kidney trouble

Mrs. Kelley Worsham, 305 E. Hunt
Str., McKinney, Texas, says: "I suf-

my shoe strings cut into the flesh.

the kidney secretions were unnatural.

gan their use and in two days i no-
