John T. Hale, on his examining trial in the quarterly court of Caldwell County on a charge of murdering one Lillian Catherine Denham, was denied bail and was ordered to be confined in the state penitentiary for safekeeping pending trial. Hale then sought release on bail through habeas corpus proceedings in the Caldwell Circuit Court. His application was denied and he is appealing here from the order of denial.
