High Point, July 12—Minnie Bass, charged with the murder of Robert Parker, was ordered held for the Superior Court by Judge J.M. Sedgecock in a police court here on the grounds of probable cause. She was released on bond of $1,000.
Minnie Bass was charged with the stabbing to death of Robert Parker on last Sunday. The chief witness was Russell Dunlap, who testified that he was on the porch of the house when Parker called the defendant, who at first refused to answer but later did go into the room. He stated that after Parker had been stabbed that he (Parker) walked out of the room and said, “We were not fighting, she did not go to it.”
Cross-examined by attorneys, Dunlap admitted that Parker followed the defendant into the kitchen and that he heard noises in the room. He denied, however, that he had heard any quarrel between he stabbed man and the woman.
