Fayetteville, May 27—Cyril Lauchlin of Albemarle, private in an engineering company at Fort Bragg, was Tuesday sentenced to two years in the state prison after submitting to a plea of guilty to manslaughter when he was placed on trial in the superior court with Edward A. Matthews on a second degree murder charge for the killing of William Burke, a taxi driver. Judge Henry A. Grady dismissed the case against Matthews as there was no evidence against him.
