Martha Bare vas q girl Of fourteen,
residing with her parents at Surprise

at Lake City. and about two months ago
she returned homo for vacation. She
unusually bright in her studies at
school. and personally very attractive.
In person she was large. and mature for

family noticed her changed manner, but

Immediately returned 10 the house
and called her father. When her father
reached the dying girl hs asked her
what she had taken. She answered
''strychnins." To the question where

poison had nearly done its work before

to do anything 10 save her. She ex-
pired shortly after she was removed to
