' The defendant said in about a
hair soar Sloan left the sitting
room and turned to go out to the
kitchen, going out of Kyle's light,
and that then Kyle blew out the
light and went to bed. -.
The next thing he knew, some
one was la the room and had him
br the throat, Kyle testified, and
was tiring to choke him. He told
of trying to break off the Intru
der with one hand while he reach
ed for the pistol with the other
band, and quoted the other person
a swearing and telling Kyle to
"cane across."
Re said he shot once, then later
after a tussle, two Quick shots
. then put the gun on a table, goi
the lamp lighted and went in to
hi a ma lying face down on the
bed. Kyle said, be couldn't see
who lit was, got i his shoes and
-went down 10 Jean's' (the dead
man's) .house to get Jean to see
' who It was.. Mrs. Sloan said Jean
wasn't at home, so he. went on to
get a Mr. Smith, who returned
with him. s "
Claims Sloan was ,
HI Best Friend
- Smith and I went in to look.
I ahead .... Why, it's Jean ...
I looked and I sald.yea. It's Jean,
my best friend', Kyle continued.
And be was your best friend ?,
Defense Attorney Burris question
ed. "He was", Kyle said, then told
" of arrival of officers.
Sereral times during cross ex-
aminatfon, -Trindle . attempted to
- bring admission from Kyle that be
and Sloan had quarrelled, hut
Kyle was adamant that in the fire
years they had known each other
there had never been words or
trouble between them.
Trindle, in his cross examina-
. tlons, struck Jit differences In
Kyle's story on the stand and his
story as told to officers following
the snooting.
- "Didn't you tell Officers Mogan
Lansing, Warren and myself at
another time that yon and Sloan
had drunk no liquor from the
time you left home to the time
you got to Salem?", Trindle quer
ied.
"There are a whole lot of things
I .recollect since then," Kyle an
swered.
The defendant wu also haiy on
what Chinese restaurant they had
eaten at in Salem, though the
prosecutor's questioning Indicated
he had giren a direct answer
- shortly after Ihe shooting. He also
gave different testimony than pre
viously as to . which side or. tne
bed he was lying on when his
assailant struck, and how many
shots were fired.
Mention of Money
To Sloam Related
Kyle said he had about $50 In
the house that night, and that he
had another 4250 planted about
the place outdoors. Queried by
Burris as to whether Jean Sloan
erer mentioned money when he
had been drinking. Kyle said once
that when he, Kyle, had just re
ceived about 110 from eggs, Sloan
had remarked "Gee, you're got
lots of money." He gare no test!
mosr relatlnr to discussion of
money on the day of the shooting,
- Burris sought without' success
to hare a verdict directed to the
defendant when the state had con
eluded its case. He contended the
state's evidence had only upheld
Kyle's story that he shot Sloan in
self-defense. Burns also contend
ed that medical testimony given at
the trial was Inexact because
Sloan's body bad been embalmed
before an autopsy was made.
Bedding Changed,
State Contention
In the morning court session
Farley Mogan, state policeman,
set up in the courtroom the bed
where Sloan met his death in
Kyle's house. The bloody pillows,
the bedraggled blankets were on
the bed but the sheet Kyle slept
on was excluded as a "gruesome
object by a ruling of the court.
The sheet was stained with blood.
. , Mogan and Joe Smith, neighbor
ef Fle, did not agree on the
coadition of the bed . clothes, the
state contending that Smith left
Kyle alone when the former went
to call county officers and-that
rearranged the condition of - the
- bed; -. ; . ... ;
" 2i Melvfn Ringo. Woodburn nn
" derUker, explained In length to
tbo Jury that the embalming pro
cess did not interfere with an
1 autopsy. J. S. Murray, ballistic ex-
- pert for the state police, testified
at length regarding the effect of
the bullets Kyle shot.
