Beebe murder trial, 1907

From New Jersey Mirror 11 Sep 1907
At the session of court held by Judge Horner on Thursday morning application was made by Eckard P. Budd, counsel for Caleb Rogers, for a new date for the trial of his client, Walter Simons and Theodore Wells, charged with the manslaughter of Howard Beebe, at Chairville, in April. This trial was set down to begin today, but Mr. Budd was informed last week that a case in which he is interested in the Ocean county branch of the Supreme Court would be called to-day, and he could not attend both courts. Beyond stating that he was ready and anxious to try the cases Prosecutor Atkinson did not oppose the motion made by Mr. Budd, and after a conference in the matter it was decided to call the case on October 1.
