MURRAY FREED AT PRELIMINARY HEARING

Homer Murray, University of Ga. rehabilitation student was absolved of the 
killing of Quilla Hardeman, young Madison county farmer, yesterday by 
Justices of Peace Gholston, Nelms and Williams.  A verdict that Murray shot 
in self defense was rendered. 

An unusually large crowd attended the hearing.  Four witnesses were put 
on the stand.  From the testimony, it developed that Murray was on his way 
home when Hardeman fired at him.  Witnesses stated that the student shot in 
self defense.

The shooting which occurred Tuesday, is said to have been the culmination 
of a long feud between the two men.
