Chapter Five THE CLINCHING EVIDENCE Because of the nation-wide prominence that had been given by the newspapers and the radio to the Peabody kidnapping and the burning of an innocent man in the jail, Judge Daniel Hopkins permitted the trial to be broadcast . . . Joe Wilson could not remain so far

Defense lawyers tried to shake hei testimony, to set her t** admit that she was so unstrung and nervous that she expected to see Joe Wilson in that jail and that what he thought she saw was nothing but a hallucination They were un-

"Undei the law.” said an assodate defense attorney, "lives must not be taken on assumption, but on facts Where Is the corpse of Jo-

seph Wilson?"

"Before the jail site was cold,” said the District Attorney, "witnesses testified that they cleaned it up and dumped the ashes into the river. In that way they got rid of

the body of their victim."

"The law is that a corpus delicti, or at least fragments of a human body, or articles known to have been worn by him, must be proved. It has not been proved that Joseph

from out of town The hostess at an unsavory inn testified that four of the defendants Dawson, Piper. Lopez and Durkin spent the entire evening in the cafe of the inn. Defense attorneys objected to almost everything statement or question from the District Attorney. The Judge threatened several times to have the court cleared; a hillbilly was thrown out of the room; a farmer fined for contempt. A defense lawyer insisted that the State produce facts instead of titlle-tattle “I did not put these representative citizens of Sage on the stand except, on th* r oaths, to tell the truth," said the District Attorney.

Then it showed Dawson pouring kerosene on a pile of broken desks, i hairs and crates in the jail itself A stop-action picture was called for by the District At torney; it revealed Dawson clearly, unmistakably, an expression of sadistic joy on his face. Dawson glared at the screen, his mouth half open with fear The other defendants squirmed uneasily. The newsreel was again flashed on the screen, showing other members of the mob Mrs. Sally Humphrey throwing a lighted’ rag; Frederick Garrett fighting the firemen who attempted to extinguish the flame, for possession of the hose Mrs Garrett, who had testified that her husband was home all evening, fainted. Twentv-two defendants «cre thus identified. Defense attorneys were quick on their feet. "Your Honor, our clients are not on trial for being at a fire, for starting a fire, or for bashing in a jail, but for the murder of Joseph Wilson, which the State has not proved. Who proves that Joseph Wilson was in the jail at the time the jail was burned?" "We call Katherine Grant to the stand," said the District Attorney.
