Andrews and Amann seen in quarrel on day of crime

Court opened with Judge Walling ruling that a statement by John M. Andrews about mortgage charges against the Water Company was not material evidence. Witnesses testified to a heated argument between Andrews and Amann near the city building the day of the murder. Prosecution showed a potential motive tied to the Water Company crisis. The defense challenged admissibility, but court limited evidence to what could be used by higher court standards.

Witness Admits Former Perjury in Andrews Murder Trial

Erie May 21 The trial of John M Andrews for the murder of Himmle Avinnn featured sensational testimony. William Mewenger claimed money was offered before a prior trial and Clarence Rice testified his defense evidence in Warren a year ago was false, accusing D A String counsel of knowledge of the untruth. The case saw debate over introducing the Purdy letter from 1810, with Judge Wal Ting delaying ruling. The letter suggested that if convicted, lives would be at risk, and prosecutors argued its relevance to Andrews services to the company.
