This man occupied highly respectable

such as 10 make it seem highly improbable
that he should deliberately commit a delib-

HUNTER was in straitened circumstances.
He needed money. And he lived In that in

Mr.. GEORGE W. CHILDs, A. NJ. HUNTER
could not endure the idea that his family

The murder was In truth, the logical result
