The Oskaloosa Times Jefferson County Friday March 23, 1900 The Foley Murder Trial. The Foley murder case which was taken up in the district court last week is progressing slowly, and it will be a very expensive trial to the taxpayers of the county. The case is attracting more than ordinary attention. Kirby is the man who is accused of killing Foley, depot agent in Perry, early in the winter. Aside from a slight nervousness he is as cool and unconcerned as any man in the court room. Both sides of the case are represented by able counsel. The procecution is represented by County Attorney Raines, and Schaeffer & Phinney, all lawyers of recognized ability. The defendant is represented by Morse & Casebier, who are considered the best criminal lawyers in this part of the state. Judge Morse, of this firm, is one of the keenest, most rigid and most merciless cross examiners in the country. If Kirby is convicted is will not be through the fault of his lawyers. They are contesting every inch of the ground. So far 124 men have been examined as jurors and not one has passed the final test.
