Oakland. and Mira 6orenson said that he
WAS to have her 1--we there. The day she
gave me tho note ] have produced here

signed Kid were written by Sims."
Stalsy Murphy, bell boy in the hotel,
then testified that several boarders in the
house wanted him TO blackmail Sims by
offering TO keep still for . financial con-
sideration. zone of them WAS . Mrx
Murphy" said the witness, and che told
me that I could make . large sum Of
money by keeping my mouth closed.
never knew Mrs. Sorenson to do anything
wrong while she was 1t the house. and Mr..
Sims was the only man who ever went to
her ROOM"
The bell boys testimony concluded the
inquest, and the case Vas given to the jury,
which. after few minutes. returned .
verdict Of suicide.
