to answer any question relating to his
Intimacy with Beulah Binford. But
during the morning Paul Beattie,
Henry's cousin, had confessed to the
Richmond police that on the Satur
day prior to the klll'ng he had
bought a single barrel shotgun for
his cousin and had turned It over to
him, with three cartridges Paul later
Identified the gun found on Midloth
ian turnpike as the gun he gave his
cousfn.
The inquest adjourned at noon with
Beattie still on the stand and while
he was eating lunch at his home, of
ficers accompanied by Paul Bettle en
tered the house and arrested him. At
the afternoon session of the Inquest,
Beulah Binford took the stand and
told of her relations with Beatt'e. She
told of the renewal of these relations
shortly after Beattle's son. Henry
Clay Beattie III was born, and her re
turn to Richmond from Norfolk where
she met Beattie.
The coroner's Jury after a brief
consideration held Beattie for the ac
tion of the grand Jury.
On August 14, the grand Jury re
turned an Indictment against Beattie
for murder 'n the fr.U degree, nnd
on August 21, he was placed on trial.
Then ensued one of the strangest, bit
terest legal battles that Virginia has
ever known.
Out In the little Chesterfield coun
ty court house, fourteen miles from
Richmond, five miles from a railroad,
a courteous, kindly southern gentle
man, Judge Watson, took charge of
the trial. D'str'ct Attorney Gregory
assisted by Louis O. Wendenburg.
one of Rirhmond's leading criminal
Jawyers conducted the prosecution
and Harry M Smith and Hill Carter
made the fight for Beattle's life.
The physical facts surrounding the
cr'me. and contrad'rtory nature of
the stories told by Henry Beattie, h's
unfaithfulness to his wife, and the
story "of his cousin Paul were the
foundation upon which the state rest
ed Its case. The father, sister nnd
friends of Beattie took the stand in
a va'n effort to estnhl'sh for him a
reputation thnt would convince the
twelve Chesterfield county farmers
who made up the Jury, that he was
Incapable of the' crime charged
against him.
Throughout the trial. Paul Beattie,
the star witness for the prosecution,
and little seventeen year old Beulah
Binford, sweetheart of the prisoner,
were kept locked In Henr'co county
ja'l Paul was on- the stand for two
days hut the seventeen year old girl
was never taken to Chesterfield court
hoiie to tell her story. She had been
summoned ns a witness by the prose
cution but the shrewd lawyers believ
ed that her attachment for Henry
Beattie would make her an undesir
able witness, and she was never plac
ed on the stnd.
In her stead, her mother, a big.
middle-ngod woman, told the story of
her daughter's relntlons with Henry
I Beattie; his love for the girl and h's
j renewal of the'r Intimacy after "his
marrlge. After three weeks of tak
I Ing testimony, nnd argument, the
twelve Chesterfield county farmers re
' tired one evening to the Jury, mom.
! knelt down and prayed for Divine
1 guidance, discussed the ev'dence,
knelt and prayed again and then
filed Into the court room with a ver
dict of gu'ltv. Judge Wnt'on Imme
diately pronounced the death sentence
fixing November 24, today, as the date
of the execution.
An appeal to the higher courts
failed, nnd Beattie f'xed h's hope on
an nnnl'otlon for pardon, reprieve or
eommuttlon of sentence to Oovernor
Mann After ft siort consideration,
however. Governor Mann. In a scath
