James Kuchanan, of the Associated Charities, and others who were acquainted with his life and habits testified at the trial. Judge Scott did not pass sentence yesterday afternoon. The murder for which Wade stands convicted was committed during the early part of last September, which Wade's mother and the wife of James Nathaniel Gordon were on a visit to the home of a neighbor. Mrs. Gordon left her son at home in violent rage. Her husband, who long before had been forced from the home of his wife on account of the county existing between him and his stepson, had suffered that morning to call at his wife's home. He was warned against doing so, but persisted. A shot gun was heard by someone in the neighborhood, and, when Mrs. Gordon returned later, she found her husband dead still sitting erect in the chair in which he was shot from a room in the rear. Wade was seen only half a minute later after the tragedy. The county and city authorities investigated the case, and the investigation was made. The coroner's jury charged with the shooting, which was found. Several months later, information came.  From some point in Albe, Marlborough County that he was on board a Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad train bound for this city.
