left their sick beds to appear in
court, occupied today's session of
the trial of H. J. Leahy, who is
charged with slaying of Dr. J. A.
Ramey of Mathis.
Defense Attorney Arnold said
that he would prove that Leahy
was at home on the night of May
20, when the doctor was slain:
that he would prove that Leahy’s
hiring of Roberto Martinez as a
chauffeur was only for that pur-
pose; and that the defendant was
sincere and truthful in his effort
to get the reward, since he be-
lieved Martinez was Implicated in

She came into court leaning heat -

and her daughter-in-law, Harry’s
wife.
She said Harry was home about
9 p. m., May 20. but he later went
to a school entertainment. She
thought he returned some time be-
fore 11:30 p. n She remembered
May 20, because it was election
daf at Mathis, and because of the
school entertainment, she said.
Then Harry’s father, Phillip,
82, took the stand. He said he
had been election judge on May
20 and that he was so fatigued
when he returned that he didn’t
know what time Harry got in that
night.
