Oldest brother accused in Kentucky murder case
William York, sixty five, was arrested at his Anderson county home and taken to Shelbyville on charges connected to the shooting death of his eighty year old brother James J. York last Friday. The will, probated at Lawrenceburg, leaves the estate of about £57,000 to nieces and nephews. Bloodhounds traced the trail from the murdered man to the suspect’s home. York denies guilt and a potential lynching prompted police to move him out of the county.
