BROTHERS’ REVENGE
RESULTS IN ARREST FOR MURDER United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright (Received September 21, 7.45 p.m.) SHELBYVILLE (Kentucky), September 21. Brigadier-General Henry Denhardt, a well known politician and soldier, whose trial on a charge of murdering Mrs Vera Taylor, his fiancee, two months ago roused national Interest, was shot dead by three assailants while strolling down the street with his attorney. It is believed the members of the woman's family took revenge in a fashion typical of Kentucky feudists. The jury in the first trial was unable to reach a verdict. The secord trial was scheduled to begin to-day. The assailants were captured and the authorities later announced it was Mrs Taylor’s three brothers who had been arrested.
