Lost Case and a Portune in Spartanburg Trial
The wealthy Union County planter Jones, jailed since the death of his wife in 1908, faces transfer to the State Penitentiary at Columbia after pledging to submit to court judgment though proclaiming innocence of murder. He endured heavy cotton speculative losses, estimated around 100000 dollars, and appointed Nicholson Trust Company to pay debts from plantation income. Jones owned about 6000 acres with 3000 on one plantation, yielding 12000 to 15000 yearly. He had used his cell to conduct market trades, and his wealth and standing keep public interest high as he awaits trial and possible pardon considerations.
