from many sections of the State being
present.
Mrs. Terry was not in q condition TO be
| interviewed, and Call reporter sought out
Judge Turner. In reply 10 questions, he
made the following statement:
II am unable 10 state the future move
| ments of Mrs. Terry. She may leave to-
| morrow and she may stay until after the
| preliminary examination of Nagle; which
| is set for Wednesday next. She is 3 grief
| stricken woman and must be allowed some
| little time for reflection. l cannot under
| stand the proceedings to-day in San Fran
cisco, in which Field took the principal
role. l look upon it SIS farce"
What do you say in relation to the ru-
NOR that Ingersoll or Butler will be en-
ployed to conduct the prosecution" was
| asked.
The rumor is no doubt well founded,
but do not care TO discuss it Just now.
You can state, however, that the best coun-
sci that the country can produce will be
employed by the friends of Judge Terry.
In connection with myself l cannot say
just yet what will do. Circumstances
| may arise which will detain Messrs. Lang
don d Wilson, as well as myself"
What about releasing Nagle on writ
| of haheas corpus.n
well, what about it?' said the Judge.
IF they determine to release him what
can We do?"
There is one thing" said the Judge,
the reporting of this tragedy by the papers
has no doubt been carried out accordir g
TO instructions laid out the reporters, bnt il
is shame the way that some of them
have acted, especially in connection with
the proceedings in the church. Mrs Terry
was dogged by some of them in a heartless
way, and without respect for the solemn
occasion or for the dead"
The Judge stated he was confident that
public sentiment was changing. Those
who had remained quiet were now freely
expressing opinions against the killing Of
Terry IN such manner.
How the rumor of her having possession
of the pistol again gained circulation | am
unable 10 tell. It is base lie. The pistol
has never been returned to her, and she
has never asked for it. When l arrived
here the first thing l asked for was the
weapon. She stated that it had been taken
from her. l then made her promise that
1t should remain where il vas, and she
has never laid hands on it."
The Nail prints statement that dis
pu'e occurred before the body was re.
moved from the morgue
Mrs Terry discovered that Clinton Terry,
a son Of the deceased, had ordered the
grave 10 be dug between the graves of the
former Mrs. Terry and the deceased's son.
She wanted to have it located so that when
she herself died, she might be laid bv the
side of HIM who had so gallantls pro-
tected her
To the HaH man, who entered the room
where the coffined corpse lay, she at once
said
"Oh, Mr.. -, don't you think it is terri
ole the way Clinton has done? I want TO
be placed by the side of my poor, dead
sweetheart, and if they bury him there I
cannot"
Lawyer Grady, H. c. Wilson and Nor
gan Hill (brother of the beresved woman)
were present in the apartment.

mentally-occupied chair in the adioin-
ing office Of the undertaken. Mr.. Hill sat
on 'ounge few feet distant from Mrs
Terry and was endeavoring to have her
acquiesce to the arrangements which had
been effected in regard to the grave.
ut is perfectly proper" argued Mr. Hill,
that he should be buried between the
bodies of his wife and son."
Am not his wife, too?' she demanded,
rather sharply.
Yes, certainly, but you are not dead"
Il think it is only right TO see that when
am dead may be inferred at his side"
not to continue in her opposition to the
arrangement. Clinton has given the or
der" he urged, and the grave is dug"
" But he had no right to, persisted Mrs
Terry.
He is his son."
The sons have no right TO do that. It
is Tor me, his wife, TO look out for the
burial, and ! want my husband inferred
| where / can be put at his side
Butdon't do this, - interposed Mr.. Hill :;
don make scene. The papers viii get
hold of all this
Mrs. Terry declared she was not making
a scene; and indeed she was not, for her
words were delivered quietly, in a plead
ing, snpplicating manner, to a few friends.
Mr.. Grady argued that her objection came
too late, for the funeral would take place
in three hours.
She replied that need make no difference
for she could have the remains placed in
the vault and the funeral could proceed
without interruption.
Mr.. Grady and Mr.. Hill retorted that
Clinton Terry would never consent to this,
| and consequently a squabble would result.
| This declaration bad the desired effect and
she consented to the inteTment of the body
in the grave dug.
On the coffin lay various floral designs.
One OF them bore the word Rest, " worked
in flowers. Below this was floral star.
From midday until almost the hour for
the funeral people were coming in to see
the remains. The chancel of the church
was tastefully decorated with flowers and
bouquets sat on the sills of the raised
windows, through which mellow light
hoated into the vaulted room.
