fourth charge of murder of a' two-year-old child was reduced to a finding of guilty of assault with intent to murder Calley denied all except firing six to eight shots along with others of his platoon into the ditch with his muzzle only five feet from the villagers but said he doesnt know whether he hit anybody Five of his platoon testified they saw his bullets ripping into the screaming group in which mothers were diving protectively on top of their children The government charged the slaughter was by Calleys own hand or by his platoon members at his command Calley testified he told one of his soldiers Paul Meadlo to waste one group of prisoners Calleys was the first capital case to be tried on charges growing out of the May Lai massacre of March 16 1968 and the first conviction Sgts David Mitchel and Charles Hutto were acquitted of assault with intent to murder while the Calley case was in progress The Calley case was a landmark in military jurisprudence both the longest court-martial and longest deliberation in American history There has been no trial in the Army with as many alleged murders and no military trial with multiple alleged murder of persons whose names were unknown The trial began Nov 12 The jury got the case on the third anniversary of My Lai Its verdict came on the second anniversary of the March 29 1969 letter by Ronald Ridenhour to the White House and Congress that sparked the My Lai investigation It took Col Clifford Ford the court president two minutes to deliver the details of the four counts of guilty His six-foot-two frame standing in the jury box towered above the diminutive Calley whose eyes widened at the first mention of guilt Calley stood at attention facing Ford saluted weakly with his fingertips at eye level and listened pink-faced but without grimace to the verdict When it was over he saluted again in an unorthodox motion that had the palm of his hand covering his right eye Ford snapped a salute in return On the way down the hall with his attorneys to the defense office Calley said nothing except: Can I go back to my quarters? He could not Military police arrived shortly to take him to confinement Inside the defense room his red-haired girl friend Anne greeted him and wept END-OF-MONTH Rural Libraries Kingsport Pioneer Dies At 71 Mrs Lorena Pyle 71 2011 Glenwood Ave Knoxville died Monday at 6:30 pm in Holston Valley Community Hospital following a lengthy illness Bom in Pennington Gap Va she came to Kingsport in 1917 as the bride of Mr 0 Pyle and became active in civic affairs She was known by her friends as a pioneer woman of Kingsport She went to Knoxville 11 years ago She was a member of the First Broad Street United Methodist Church and a member of the Liberty Chapter of the Eastern Star Her husband preceeded her in death in 1959 She is survived by daughters Mrs Jack A (Betsy) Hellams Kingsport Mrs Frank (Sarah) Bowers Glade Springs Va son William (Bill) Pyle Bend Ore sisters Mrs Clyde (Jewell) Rutherford Mrs (Lucille) Hedrick both of Knoxville brother Taylor Princeton Va six granddaughters and nine great-grandchildren Hamlett -Dobson Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements A Ilabe Ketron A Habe Ketron 74 Kingsport Manor Nursing Home died at 12 noon Monday after being in poor health for the past three years Born in Scott County Va he made his home in the Kingsport area for most of his life He had been an employee of the Kingsport Wholesale Grocery Company Charges Are Dismissed An assault and battery charge against Elizabeth Ann Parsons 27 1439 Leeland Dr was dismissed in Sessions Court Saturday Mrs Parsons had been accused of beating Loreen Parsons no address given last Aug 13 without justification or excuse WISEMAN DR JAMESW Funeral services for Dr James Wiseman will be held Wednesday af ternoon at 3 as a graveside service at the Jobe Cemetery Erwin Tenn with Rev Byrum charge The family will receive friends at the funei al home Tuesday evening from 7 to 9 Hamlett Dobson Funeral Home is in charge ot arrangements JENKINS BALLARD Funeral services for Betiard jenkms 83 Route 2 Surgoinsville who died Monday will be conducted Wed nesday aU pm at the Jenkms Chaoel Primitive Baptist Church Elder John Henry Sybert Elder Basil Freeman and Eider Gale Derrick will officiate Burial will follow the church cemetery The body will remain at the Wilson Funeral Home Church Hill where the family will receive friends from 7 to 9 Tuesday also at the home of Allen Jenkms Stanley Valley The body will be taken to the church one hour before services to lie state Wilson Funeral Home it charge of arrangements OAYS LIFT 1 UP i ten tax return penalty nr Continued From Page 1 libraries such as the one at Church Hill will be forced to close Even if county courts decide to offer assistance they cannot afford to provide funds which would be required to purchase the volume and variety of books necessary to keep the library on the level it is now Last year when the county library system required additional funds Hawkins County squires approved the money without debate or dissenting vote But the idea of financing the entire cost of all libraries in the county on their own would probably be too much for the already-strained county budget to handle If they close this library high school children will have to travel all the way to Kingsport or Rogersville to check out a book for a book report Considering the number of assignments in high schools or even grade school nowadays it would not only place a great burden on the students but on the libraries which would have to serve them Mrs Thurman said Actually the Church Hill Library is not much to look at Located in a three-room block building the city purchased when they bought a house next door to be used as a health department the library shares breathing space with the Church Hill Police Department an insurance agent and storage space for maintainance crews or other city operated agencys The one room alloted the library is lined wall to wall floor to ceiling with books In addition books not available on the shelves can be ordered from the bookmobile when it makes the bi-weekly stop here If its an emergency my book report is due Friday and Ive got to have it!
