Volume XXm, Number 40 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, AUGUST 10, 1972 - TEN CENTS Campbell guilty, jury recommends 51 years ' i;.' h,; Rappahannock National Bank, Washington, Va. presented awards to the local youth who were winners in the Culpeper Area Farm Show held recently. Mrs. Mary L. Payne, Cashier, presents David Thornhill a $50 Savings Bond. Melanie Thornhill received a $25 bond and Donna Cannon, right and Nina Metzinger each were given $10 in a savings account. C.J. Miller, bank president, gives Nina her savings book. CHARLES MANUEL CAMPBELL, 32, of Alexandria and Amissville, was convicted on four charges, including one of first degree murder, in Rappahannock County Circuit Court Friday following a day and a half of testimony by a dozen witnesses. The 12-person jury recommended a total of 51 years in a penal institution for the crimes. The defendant was found guilty on the four charges and punishment totaling 51 years was set as follows: Murder, 30 years; robbery, 10 years; statutory burglary, 10 years and one year for grand larceny. The charges stemmed from the killing of John Swan Sutton on September 20, 1970 at Amissville. Sutton was discovered bludgeoned to death behind Lombardy Lunch Room where he was sleeping after receiving permission to do so. The victim was robbed and the restaurant was broken into and burglarized. Campbell remained unemotional through the long proceedings Thursday, when witnesses told of conversations with him in which he disclosed information leading to his arrest and conviction. His facial expression did not vary or change when the guilty (Turn to page 19) School starts Aug. 28 PUBLIC SCHOOLS in Warren and Rappahannock Counties will begin the 1972-73 session on Monday, August 28.

Newcomers to the county are urged to register their school age children prior to August 22. □ Roads condition is criticized THE CONDITION of Rappahannock County’s secondary roads came in for criticism several times — within the context of a number of situations — at last Thursday’s meeting of the Board of Supervisors. “The secondary roads are in right bad shape all over the county,” commented Chairman Newbill Miller. “I think the secondary roads are the worst shape I’ve ever seen them in.” Supervisor J. R. Latham added that even mowing operations seem to be running behind schedule. Used books to be sold > Both new and second hand books will be sold in the Rappahannock County Elementary School auditorium only on Friday, August 18 from 4 to 8 p.m. and Saturday, August 19 from 9 a.m . to 12 noon. A book in good condition is half price, those in fair condition will be sold for one - third or one - fourth price. Both fourth and seventh grade history books sill be sold for one-third price. , Book lists were sent home in report cards in June. The first to come will have first choice. □ “And they haven’t scraped a road since the rain and big water,” said Supervisor Herbert Foster. Their comments were inspired by the appearance of a delegation of women from Chester Gap, who presented a petition containing some 30 signatures, asking that Route 666 be black-topped. Fauquier f— Rappahannock’s Resident Highway Engineer, James Skeens, was not present at the meeting, but Newbill Miller told the women that he thought their petition came too late for any action this year. He noted that the next county road hearing will not be held until April of 1973. SUPERVISOR Foster agreed with them that the road needs paving, especially around the entrance area, but also agreed with Miller that it’s probably too late to expect anything in this year’s budget. “If my husband didn’t have a bulldozer,” said one woman, “we wouldn’t be able to use the road at all.” Miller promised them he would forward the petition to Skeens. ' . THE SUBJECT of county roads came up again when Col. E.A. McNear appeared to report that Rappahannock County has been officially declared a “dis aster area” from the flood waters of Hurricane Agnes. There was laughter around the Supervisors’ table. ‘‘We can find very little damage as far as farms are concerned,” McNear said, agreeing with the sentiment expressed by the Supervisors’ laughter. “But there’s been considerable damage to our roads — maybe as much as $50,000 to$60,000 worth of damage,” McNear said. Chairman Miller commented again about his belife that “the secondary roads are in the worst sh(See page 2)

SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Fairy tale LAST YEAR, a Virginia agency issued a report :hat solemnly concluded that one-third — qr some such ridiculous portion — of all houses in Virginia were unfit for human habitation. You can believe that if you want to, but we don’t _ anci it’s not just because our love of Virginia blinds us to her faults. This year, a Virginia agency has issued a report that claims “one Virginian out of six lives in poverty.” You can believe that one, too, if you want to, but count us out again, please. Especially when the report compiled by the Virginia Employment Commission goes on to assert that “Virginia continues to have greater poverty than the nation as a whole, and that Rappahannock County is one of 18 rural counties in Virginia which “have more than double the average incidence of poverty in Virginia.” CAN YOU FIGURE that one out? It apparently means that every third person you see in Rappahannock County is headed for the poor house or a bread line. It would be our advice that no one get carried away with this information and attempt, in a wave of sudden charitable impulse, to press a dime in the emaciated hand of that third passerby. You might get your nose busted. □ LIBRARY LINES Woman’s Day Book of American Needlework “is at once a glowing volume of Americana, a pictorial treasury, and an instructional book.

Letters to the editor Garter answers General Noce Editor: I would like to reply to the remarks made about me by General Noce of Rappahannock County. The General has long been a loud and lengthy spokesman for the unnecessary Rappahannock River dam at Fredericksburg although his county is nowhere near the proposed lake, He is very strong in favor of flooding out 7,000 acres of Fauquier County and 14,000 acres of Culpeper County, along with 150 families, and bulldozing down some 8,000 acres of forest land to make this unnecessary flooding. Now speaking of bulldozing, let’s take a look at the way General Noce proposes to settle matters with me, who disagrees with him on the necessity for this “pork-barrel” project. He says, to quote from the Piedmont Virginian: “I hope we can settle this (Carter and I), or that I can take a pick handle and level it over his head and call him a such and such liar.” In other words, if yor do not have the intelligence to win an argument use brute force; or as the General prefers, use a pick handle. General Noce in his blast against me went back 2,000 years in Roman history and cited a quotation from a Roman general who was questioned by the public about his ability for running a war. “He replied in effect,” said General Noce, “with a perfect soldier’s answer; ‘Its none of your business.’ ” I would like to go back to Roman times also and quote an old Roman senator who said to his son: “My son, you will be amazed when you learn what fools rule the world.” Randy Carter Roads criticized (From page 1) ape they’ve ever been,” adding this time his belief “that it’s predominately due to Agnes.” Said Miller: “The Harris Hollow Road was torn all to pieces. A lot of other secondary roads still have deep ruts from washouts.” McNEAR SAID he’d tried to find out if the state was considering granting additional highway maintenance funds because of the floods, but thus far had not received any information. Miller wondered if the county might make a “qualified” request for disaster relief, for roads only, and McNear thought it was at least worth a try. “If we don[t get these repairs done right, the secondary roads will suffer from years to come,” said Miller. Mrs. Betty Coates and Herbert Foster agreed with the chairman, to apply for road help only. Commented Miller, after making necessary changes in the “disaster” aid application, to ask for road aid funds only: “I couldn’t vote for anything unless it said roads only. We’re critical of everybody else for putting a hand out for federal dollars, and here’s a chance for us to practice what we preach.” □

Confusion develops over zoning office opening HOW MANY DAYS a week Rappahannock County’s zoning office will be open — one or two — was left hanging in midair at last Thursday’s meeting of the Board of Supervisors. Chairman Newbill Miller reported that Col. E. A. McNear, zoning administrator, had returned his paycheck because of what he felt was a misunderstanding. Miller said Col. McNear said he had requested a salary of $300 a month for keeping his office two days. “I thought we’d authorized $200, plus a five and a half per cent cost of living increase,” said Miller. “He says if S300 wasn’t authorized, he’ll go back to one-day a week.” Presumably, at the old salary of $100, plus a cost-of-living increase. Supervisor J. R. Latham recalled that the motion approving this year’s budget, and including McNear’s request, had been to, in effect, double the salary for doubling the time the office was open. At Miller’s suggestion, the Board “reaffirmed” this intention, and left the decision as to the number of days the office will be open up to McNear — either one day at $105, or two days at $210, but not $300 plus a cost-ofliving increase. MC NEAR APPEARED before the Board earlier to present two applications for subdivisions, both of which he said met all county regulations. One was for the Edco Corporation, which is dividing an 80-acre site on Route 627 in Hampton District, into four parcels. The smallest is 8.74 acres in size. The other subdivision is planned by James Carr, and involves a fiveacre parcel out of a 49-acre tract bounded by Routes 600 and 608 near Sperryville. “For some reason,” Chairman Newbill Miller commented in passing, “there seems to have been a great rash of developments recently in adjoining counties.” IN ANOTHER MATTER to come before the Board last Thursday, Mrs. Elizabeth Buntin, superintendent of welfare, presented several bills for hospital care. Bills totalling $1,200 were approved. There was considerable discussion about the specific individuals involved, the philosophical considerations of welfare in general, and so forth. There was also a discussion of problems with the county dump. Miller said he’d received some complaints that industrial waste was being included in the material being left at the dump, and reminded everyone of the county’s regulations which are supposed to prohibit deposit of any “burnable” items. Chairman Miller, with other members concurring, also made a plea for members of the public “to cooperate more in the proper use of the dumpsters trash collection system.” H. B. Wood Jr. noted that sometimes people think the containers are full, when they really aren’t, and urged everyone to take more care before allowing trash to spill around the sites, fl Three accidents on county roads are reported THREE TRAFFIC incidents were reported on August 5, and one on August 3 in Rappahannock County. On Route 612 in the Old Hollow, Alfred Budd of Woodville and Terry Lee Dodson of Luray were involved in a collision. Budd was driving a 71 .ford and Dodson was operating a 65 Ford when they met on a curve. According to Trooper R. A. Baines, the investigating officer, the Dodson vehicle was to the left of the center of the road and he was cited for failing to drive to the right. Damage to the 71 vehicle was set ht $300 and at $100 to the Dodson Ford. Lyle Wilson Atkins of GARDEN CLUB The Rappahannock County Garden Club will meet at the home of Mrs. Dale Metzinger, Round About Farm, Sperryville, at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, August 16.

His 1972 pickup was declared a total loss and he sustained a bump on the head. Trooper Baines said charges are pending in the case. A CHEVROLET pickup owned by W.L. Payne of Amissville was stolen from in front of his store at Ben Venue Saturday night and recovered a few hours later at the Manassas exit of Route 66. Branson Linwood Pullen and Charles Troy Baker, both ' of Amissville, were involved in a collision on Route 645 west of Amissville on August 3. Pullen, operating a 65 Mustang, was backing up the road near the crest of a hill and was struck from the rear by the approaching Baker vehicle, a 63 Ford. Pullen was cited for improper backing by Trooper W.A. Buntin and damage was estimated at $400 to Pullen’s car and at $300 to Baker’s. No charges were made in a single vehicle crash August 5. on Route 211 west of Sperryville. Involved was Paul Mervyn Davis of Mullins, W.Va. operating a 72 Ford who apparently was crowded off the road by an unidentified vehicle and struck a culvert. Damage was estimated at $500 to the car. □ AN Gilt Items 10 te 50% OFF Metal Waste Paper baskets wilh Decoupage Pewfer - Silver Candles Greeting Cards Glassware Hummel Figurines Paper Products Eaton Stationery Teakwood Stands Hudson and Ortho Sprayers Garden Tools and Many Other Items at Closeout Prices We Will Continue Our Nursery Business as Usual LULLWATER NURSERY & GARDEN CENTER GIFT SHOP Amissville, Va.

'Emergency’ electrical code is approved for the county A MODEL national electrical code has been adopted by Rappahannock County’s Board of Supervisors, on a 60-day, “emergency” basis. The action was taken at last Thursday’s August meeting after J. E. DeHaven of Winchester, representing the Underwriters Inspection Service, appeared before the board to explain the services offered by his firm. It was also explained that some county action was required because of action taken 60 days ago by the Virginia Corporation Commission. Up until that time, the electric companies themselves had had underwriters’ inspections done of new installations. Now, the Commission has ruled, such work must be directed by the counties, not by the companies. DeHaven said the cost of an inspection for an average house would run around $30, and that this cost would be borne by the builder. The service will not cost the county anything. INSPECTION service will be available in Rappahannock County an average of two days a week. Until adoption of the “emergency” code, Rappahannock was in a situation where no electrical inspections were legally required. Sitting under a naked light bulb in the meeting room which adjoins the County Clerk’s office, the Supervisors agreed that this was not a desirable situation. Warren, Clarke and Frederick Counties have previously adopted the same “emergency” code and authorized DeHaven’s firm to conduct the inspections. “You can wire your barn and drive in a ground rod and it’ll work, but it’s not what we' would recommend,” said DeHaven, stressing the importance of having a check made to see that proper wiring is installed. Mrs. 6etty Coates thought that “This is not an expense — it’s a service.” Chairman Newbill Miller also expressed himself m favor of the action, with the stipulation that during the 60 days the “emergency” code is in effect, Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis will “see what might be needed later.” The vote to approve was unanimous. □ All Stars win game The Northern Division All Stars defeated the Southern Division All Stars in the Recreational Baseball League game which was played Monday at Warren - ton.

Ending payment of dog fund claims is discussed POSSIBLE abandonment of the practice of paying dog fund claims was discussed at the August meeting of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors. The question was brought up last Thursday (August 3) by Chairman Newbill Miller, who noted that “there’s not enough in the dog fund to even pay Mr. Bruce.” Mrs. Betty Coates was willing to make a motion that sufficient funds be transferred from the general fund to pay Dog Warden Jack Bruce, but before the action proceeded, Mil ler invited a general discussion about “whether we are going to try to keep the dog fund self-supporting,” or what. Supervisors Herbert Foster and Wood agreed that the fund should support itself, and Wood said he’d even be in favor of “increasing the taxes on dogs” if that was what was necessary. “The income now just meets the expenses of the warden, without any claims being considered,” noted Miller. “I’m just beginning to wonder if we should still be liable for dog damage.” Barksdale named to Co-op board y Herbert S. Barksdale of Flint Hill, and Alton Morrison of Front Royal, were elected to the local board of directors at the Southern States Annual Membership meeting held in Front Royal, on August 2.

I don’t know all the legal ramifications, but I don’t think the general public wants to support dogs. I’m^ thinking in terms of eliminating all payments for damages.” Wood wondered if putting the dog warden on a half-time basis would solve the problem, and Foster asked for specific figures. A call to the treasurer’s office brought the information that the dog fund generates an income of $2,533 a year. Some $2,400 has already been paid this year, half of it for the warden’s salary, and no more dog claims are being authorized for payment. Approved claims, Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis advised at a previous meeting, will now have to wait until next year, to be placed on a list and be paid when funds are received in February. Chairman Miller referred to similar problems in Page and Rockingham counties, and re-stated his interest in seeing if it is legally possible for Rappahannock to stop paying claims altogether. “ONE REASON why the fund is having trouble this year,” the chairman added, “is because the warden’s salary was $1,200 just a short time ago.” Commented Mrs. Betty Coates: “I thought you said when we voted for raising his salary that it would more than pay for itself.” “I was in favor of the increase, but I didn’t think it would pay for itself,” replied Miller. “I checked my record this morning,” interjected Warden Davis, “and found I’ve picked up 108 dogs so far this year.” “And those 108 would have produced 108 by next year,” said Newbill Miller. “I had to pick up some just this morning. Might’ near every day I get calls,” added Davis. Mrs. Coates, with Foster agreeing, finally concluded that the proper course was to check with the Commonwealth's Attorney to see what legal courses are available to the county. IT WAS A consensus of the Board members that necessary transfers will have to be made, in the meantime, to keep Warden Davis on the job. “The people would be upset if we dicjji’t have a warden,” thought Mrs. Coates. “I just don’t see how I could do the job half-time,” said Davis. “If a man loses half a dozen sheep tonight, he’ll have to call me tomorrow morning.” “I just hate to see us raising the cost of the tags,” said Herbert Foster. “It’d just be another tax increase. Taxes are too high, anyway.” THE SUBJECT was dispatched with a final flurry of comments around the table: • “There’s nothing more controversial than dogs,” said Newbill Miller, “whether its a mutt or a fine hunting dog.” • “I’m having trouble at my place with foxes,” said Betty Coates. • “What would happen to the dog fund if someone came in with a claim for a $1,500 or $2,000 horse?” Supervisor Wood wondered. • “I had a bear get a horse once,” said Mrs. Coats. Commonwealth’s Attorney Davis will be asked to report on the possible future of the dog fund at the September meeting. □ NOW OPEN Dollies | Baldwin’s | Beauty Shop • Across from the Shell Station in Sperryville, Va.

Polo team AFTER A layoff of three <veeks due to heavy rains, the Casanova Polo Club swung back into high gear action this past Sunday at the Woodlawn Plantation Polo Field by defeating the Woodlawn Polo Club 7 to 4. The red and gray started Casanova Riders fielded Joe Claffey at back, John Gulick at the number three spot, Jim Hourahan at two, the first position was played by John Lyle, who alternated during the sixth period match with Butch Eastham of Rappahannock County, who played his first outdoor circuit match this Sunday. Casanova once again took the lead in the first 30 seconds of play with a goal by Jim Hourahan from midfield. This was followed within seconds by John Gulick who scored Casanova’s second Goal. Joe Claffey got in the act towards the end of the first period by scoring the third goal for Casanova. At half time the Casanova players had a 5-0 lead over Woodlawn. IN THE fourth period Woodlawn was awarded, on three separate occasions, three goals by the referee, who penalized Casanova for actions considered by the referee to be dangerous and excessive rough riding. The Casanova foursome came back in the fifth and sixth periods scoring two additional goals. Scoring was as follows for Casanova: Gulick, 3; Hourahan, 2; Claffy, 2. The lone Woodlawn field goal was scored in the fifth period by Buzz Rogers of Gainesville.

Water Control Board begins own study of Salem Church dam plan VIRGINIA’S State Water Control Board will make an independent review to determine if the controversial Salem Church Dam is actually needed. The SWCB, which has been known chiefly for its work in fighting water pollution and in helping to get federal grants for sewage plants, recently was given new responsibilities for water supply programs. Noman Cole, a Fairfax County resident who is chairman of the Water Board, said a recent state government reorganization had shifted responsibility for water supply to his agency. “As of July , we began the process of reviewing the whole question of whether the Salem Church Dam should be built,” Cole said. “We have an open mind on this — we may confirm or we may wind up disagreeing with previous recommendations that it be built,” he added. He said he expects the staff analysis will take several months and then the ward will make a recommendation on the project.

That department, before July 1, was made up of six divisions: Forests, water resources, mined land r< clamation, parks, and the Virginia State Travel Service. Now, however, the division of water resources has been moved, complete with a state staff of some 50 officials into the water board’s jurisdiction. THE OLD conservation and economic development department had worked with the Army Corps of Engineers, which planned the dam; it was the Virginia governor’s agency charged with carrying out dam building policies approved by the governor. The Salem Church 0Dam and Reservoir would back up water along some 53 miles of the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers. Its supporters say it is needed for Northern Virginia’s water supply, among other alleged justificatvons. However, several Northern Virginia governments have said they were not interested in getting their water supply from Salem Church, which is some 60 miles south of Washington, D.C. Instead, they have said they preferred to get water from the Potomac River upstream from Washington or from the estuary south of here. □ L DANCE SCHEDULED There will be a dance at the Community Center in Washington on Friday, August 11 beginning at 9 p.m. □ Saor • Imported Tack • Riding Apparel • Hunting Appointments • Unique Gifts • Tack Repair Warrenton Main St. 347-2586 ' Announces its annual Back to School Sale is now in progress Check your mail for a sale circular Employment Opportunities Culpeper Farmers' Cooperative, Inc. —Excellent Company Benefits— Retirement Plan, Hospitalization Insurance, Sick Leave, Paid Vacations, Paid Holidays.

Ferry Farm project progresses Another step has been taken toward establishing Ferry Farm, the boyhood home of George Washington, as a National Historic Site, Congressman William L. Scott reports. “The suitability study, resulting from the introduction of my bill to acquire and preserve Washington’s boyhood home, has been completed by the Northeast Region of the National Park Service. Now Park Service Management is reviewing and evaluating the report, and will make a recommendation to Secretary of Interior R.C. B. Morton,” said the Virginia lawmaker. Scott said he understood the Park Service was not i in a position at this time to say when the Department of Interior action would be completed, or when the Department will pass its recommendation to the Congress. “However,” Scott concluded, “based on our earlier discussions with Park Director Hartzog and his favorable reaction during a visit to the farm, we are hopeful that the legislation will pass and that necessary preservation and restoration can be completed by our nation’s 200th birthday in 1976.” About 95 acres remain in the . Ferry Farm plot adjacent to the old ferry landing in Stafford County across the Rappahannock I River from the lower end of Fredericksburg. Young Washington lived at Ferry Farm for roughly nine years, from 1739 to 1747, until he left to begin work as a surveyor. □ *2* CLUB TO MEET Promise Land Women’s Club will meet Saturday, August 12 at 7:30 at the church.

With some borrowed string, a lot of hobbling and perseverance, we finally reached the top. The view was grand. It is a humbling experience to stand on such an eminence. One is never too old to learn. Even at my advanced age I have acquired a little more knowledge: id est, never wear sandals on a hiking trip in rocky terrain, or mountain climbing. Yesterday, Sunday, was a good day. I heard that a friend of mine is back in the groove. More power to you, Bill, and may God bless. My new step-step grandsons and I had a nice day together; church and SS, brunch, hike, dinner, Sunday papers and an evening of retrospection. Yes, a good day. Yesterday’s lesson was about Paul spending so much time in the cities T>f his day. After his confrontation with Jesus on the Damascus Road, I wonder if he might have had a dialogue similar to this with his Lord. ^ “I said ‘Let me work in the country.’ He said, ‘No, go work in the town.’ I said, ‘But Lord, there are no flowers there.’ He said, ‘No, no flowers, but a crown.’ ” I wonder what this term “wearing a crown” ^ might mean. I think that with Paul it was the ability to love people of all races. When it was time for his earthly ministry to come to an end, he said in effect, “I don’t know what I had rather do, go on and be with my Lord, or stay on here with you people whom I love so much.” And if that ain’t lovin’, please tell me what loving really is. □ AMISSVILLE NEWS.

Jury finds Campbell guilty (From page 1) verdict was announced. THE WARRANTS FOR THE charges were secured by State Police Investigator Thomas M. Galloway who with former Rappahannock Sheriff Charles K. Estes had spent almost two years of intensive investigation. Twenty-one jurors were summoned and sworn and from these 12 were selected. Mrs. Dorothy Butler was chosen foreman; others were Mrs. E.W. Gore, Dan Jacobs, Mrs. Elizabeth Jacobs, Thomas Eastham, Aubrey North, Irving Sisk, Miss Mary Sue Atkins, Clyde Lillard, Albert Williams Jr., Gene Austin Fletcher and Haywood L. Turner. After the oath was administered to the Commonwealth’s Attorney’s witnesses, they were excluded from the courtroom and recalled one at a time to testify. Judge R.V. Snead was on the bench and George H. Davis Jr. is the county’s prosecutor. Edward Greco of Front Royal was the court-appointed attorney for the defendant. INVESTIGATOR GALLOWAY told of being summoned to the murder scene by Sheriff Estes on the morning of September 20 and upon arrival found the victim still partially in his sleeping bag and his head covered with his jacket. Large gaping head wounds proclaimed his untimely demise. The back storm door of the restaurant was open and the wooden door pried open and splintered in the process. The cash register and safe were open and empty and the coin box of the juke box was ripped off. An iron wrecking bar was on the counter along with a tire iron. Pictures of the murder scene, weapons, blood stains were introduced as exhibits along with the lethal weapon. Dr. Robert L. Cassidy, coroner, testified to his examination of the victim, identified the death certificate and related the findings of the autopsy, and verified that the wounds could be caused by a blunt instrument. Mr. Estes cor robe rated the testimony given by the investigator and had requested his aid after realizing the seriousness of the crimes.

Phone 675-3566 EVIDENCE GATHERED at the scene was sent for analysis and inspection to the F.B.I. laboratory and agents from that organization testified to the presence of blood and human hair, perhaps an eyebrow, on the wrecking bar. Irva Poe, owner of the restaurant, described the scene as she found it on the fatal morning and attested to the fact that money was taken from the safe and register, as well as a large piggy bank. The disarray and mutilated coin box was mute testimony of the events which had taken place. Albert 0. Morgan, a cellmate in Arlington and Fj^rfax county jails, testified that Campbell told him after the investigator served the four warrants on him in the jail, “we did this over a year and a half ago and they are just now coming up with it.” Morgan had run of the cell blocks and carried notes from Campbell on one floor to Ernest Moffett Smith on another floor. Smith faces the same four charges but is presently in the prison hospital in Richmond. Campbell also told Morgan, according to his testimony that “if they” don’t catch Charlie Stringfellow, we’ll do all right, and we were doing all right until Smith ran his mouth to Linckus (Smith’s cellmate).” THE CASE WAS TIED together with testimony of Athey Nicholson, step-grandfather of Campbell, who identified the wrecking bar as his and by Reid Burke, another relative who said in conversation concerning the murder “I don’t have to wonder, I know, I did it myself. “Smith and I spent the day in Alexandria with Campbell and we all came to Warrenton in the evening. I got my car parked there and we came to Amissville,” said Charlie Stringfellow when he took the stand. “I went home and the next evening they told me what they had done.” Stringfellow said when he asked if they weren’t worried about fingerprints they said: “No indeedy. We wore gloves. We took a gun but threw it away.” Mr. Greco presented his defense Friday morning and asked for a motion to declare Stringfellow an adverse witness. He questioned Mrs. Stringfellow and Henry Corder as to the credibility of Stringfellow. Motions were also made to strike testimony of other witnesses including Nicholson but in spite of the intense effort of the defense counsel a guilty verdict was rendered. — Sarah Latham □ State traffic deaths showing increase The 572 Virginia traffic deaths so far reported for the first six months of 1972 mark an increase of 22 when compared with the same period of 1971, reports Colonel H.W. Burgess, Superintendent of State Police. Noting that traffic volumes rose some 8.3 percent during the period, Col. Burgess said the 1972 statistic is subject to slight upward revision due to deaths of persons now carried as injured and late reports. He said good reductions made in January and February were more than wiped out by an all-time March high of 113. Both April and June saw increases while May’s deaths were the same as the preceding May. Monthly tolls for the first half of 1971 were January, 92; February, 87; March, 83; April, 95; May, 106 and June 87. For 1972, they were January, 85; February, 73; March 113; April, 102; May, 106, and June 93. Deaths of pedestrians were even at 98 and those of servicemen down from 34 to 26. Colonel Burgess said yearly reductions were attained on both 1970 and 1971 and that he felt the present increase could be overcome during the second half of the year by determined citizen and official action. □ Trip planned Hopewell Baptist Sunday School of Sperryville is sponsoring a trip from Sperryville to Marshall Hall on Saturday, August 19.
