Another Score for Cupid
ROY HAPPENINGS
Roselair Case Before
the Supreme Court
The case o f John D. Roselair
who was convicted in the circuit
court at Hillsboro o f brutally
murdering his wife at their lone­
ly mountain home in the timber
above Buxtoh in May, 1909, was
up before the supreme court
Tuesday. Roselair was convict­
ed of murder in the first degree
by the trial jury, and sentenced
to by hung, but his attorneys ap­
pealed the case, and base their
plea on the score that Roselair
was insane, and therefore not re­
sponsible for the deed.
After murnering his wife the
man went to Hillsboro and con­
fessed to Sheriff Hancock. For

lynching made by the aroused
and indignant citizees, cooler
counsel prevailed, and Roselair
was given a fair trial.
