loosely over her shoulders, pretty blue-eyed
Sadie walked composedly into the court room

She Is a little creature, though almost . wo-

her throat. On her head was . neat, round

On Friday evening, October 81. Of last year,
Sadie, then living at Akron, enticed Della
Brown, aged six and Nellie May Corners, chill
dren OF the neighborhood where she lived, to

village, then, guided by the older girl, who
told them that if they did not follow her they
would all be murdered, she led them in the di-
rection Of the New York Central railroad trestie
over Murder creek
Miss hcMuilen dragged the children to the
middle Of the bridge and, after a fearful strug-
gie threw both off. The trestle was ffty-two
feet high at that point The dead and mangled
body OF the Corners girl was found several
hours later. Little Della was found few feet
away breathing painfully. She fingered be-
tween life and death for several weeks and
finally recovered. After throwing the chill
dren from the trestle Miss McMullen went to \
bridge in the rear of Browns saloon and
jumped into the creek.
Simon Brown, the father of the girl she
almost succeeded in killing. heard her cries
and saved her life. Miss McMuller has not ad-

question.
