DETAILS OF A REMARK
ABLE TRIAL.
Benton Jonee, serving1 a life sentence in the penitentiary, was par
doned by Gov. Matthews Satur
day, the son of the prisoner, with
unspeakable joy, being tbe messenger bearing to him tho joyous tid
ings releasing him from imprison
ment.
Jones was a life prisoner from
Monroe county, and sentenced af
ter a remarkable trial. He was indicted with his brother, Lee Jones; Thomas Tolliver, a brother-in-law; and Dr. Parks Tolliver, a brother of Thomas, in April, 1875, by an Orange county grand fary, for the murder of Thomas Moody March 2nd. The killing aroused great public indignation. The friends of the prisoners were nearly as strong numerically as those who sought to bring these men to the bar of jus tice for punishment. This crime had been antedated by another assault on the Moody's on the night of June 24, 1871, when a dozen or more conspirators made a night at
tack on the Moodys, in LawTence
county, and by the use of hand gre
nades, and other murderous instru
ments an attempt was made to murder Thomas Moody, his two old bachelor brothers, and his two old sisters. They were all old people, held in the highest regard. Shotguns and revolvers were also freely used in this night attack, and Thomas Moody was shot through the body as he was climbing a fence. Jugs of gasoline, coal oil, and blazing torches were thrown into the room of these old people, after the doors and windows had
been broken in, and the house was
soon in flames, in every room. Then it was that hand grenades, made of slugs of iron, horseshoe nails, steel screws, gun powder, &c, were thrown into the burning room. The Moodys employed Col. George W. Friedlcy, Senator Yoorhees and other eminent lawyers to fight their legal battles growing out of this conspiracy, and succeeded in having him, and nearly a dozen of his relatives, indicted. Old Tom Moody was extremely desirous of having Bent Jones punished, but was so conscientious on the witness staad that he would nol even identify the voice of any of the party. He spent his money lavishly in other directions, also, and employed the best detective talent to be had, a detective being employed for nearly two years, working continuously on this "night attack," as it was called at subsequent trials.

At this time Bent. Jones was trustee of the township in which Mitchell is located,and was a prominent politician. He was also at the head of an extensive lumber business, and employed many hands, with all of whom he was popular. One Eli Lowry was also indicted in April, 1875, for the murder of Moody, and was imprisoned in the Paoli jail at the tme the Jones and Tollivers were coa-
lined there, and subsequently made
a full confession implicating the two Jones and the two Tollivers. Lengthy habeas corpus proceedings followed, and at all of the trials subsequently, Lowry gave the full details connecting himself and
his fellow prisoners with. the aw-j
ful murder, and sustained himself to the satisfaction of the prosecution during crosscexaminations unusually searching and exhaustive, lasting fully a day.
