That day Professor Webster lecturcd

celebrated DIR. Oliver Wendell Holmes,
who lectured from till 9. A number of
people who knew DIR. Parkman by sight

The evidence of these people was not Ger

the further movements of DIR. Parkman
were based was the servant who gave him
Professor Webster's message.

Henry Clay. He was frequent visitor
at my fathers house in South Carolina.
Both Clay and my father were ardent
whist players, and nothing vas more to
their minds than the collection of a
brace Of gentlemen equally addicted to
whist and then the quartet would play
for hours. While the name of whist
might serve to imply game where ST.

ulted audibly over a success, and did
not hesitate when they We're playing as
partners to violently point out mistakes
the other had made and attributed de-
feat to the others ignorance and utter
Lack CT natural intelligence. Indeed, on
occasions particularly trying, they We're
even known to apply hard names to one
another. This they did in no slanderous
spirit, bat to brighten up and sharpen
the wits Of the other to the improve
ments of his play. AS they were sitting
down to 4 game as partners one evening
Clay remarked:
H'lt's great outrage the way we
talk to each otl:er, and my idea now,
at the outset, is for each of us to put up
$50, to belong to the one who is first
called hard names By the other If You
assail me, the money is mine; if for

My father readily agreed He felt
in mild, agreeable mood He was con.
fident he would never again lie a prey to
the slightest impulse to speak harshly
to his dear friend Clay And, besides, it
was his recollection that Clay was the
man who ragged and did the loud talk

$50 on top of Clay's. He thought it
would be a good lesson to the blue grass
orator TO lose it. As they proceeded
with the game Clay made some excess

He led the wrong cards; he trumped
the wrong tricks; he did everything

and suffered in silence 1t went on for

Professor Webster with increasing re-

good, found as the time went on that he
not only could not meet the principal, but
had great difficulty in paying the interest
on this increased obligation.
DIR. Parkman, forgetting their old friend
ship and thinking only of the money that
was due him, now began to make frequent
visits to Professor Webster's Office urging
him to pay. and at last intimating that he
was not being treated fairly.
At this time Professor Webster was lee
turing every day to the chemistry class in
Harvard college. On Nov. 20, 1919, Park

before the lecture was over Waiting i'm

toni
Forty-six years ago and for nearly two
centuries prior to that time, as indeed to
this day, there are no names better known
in New England than those of Parkman
and Webster. Both families have added to
the glory Of our country's history through
the statesmen, orators, lawyers and scien-
lists they have given to the public.
The two members Of these two great
families in whom We are most interested
are Professor Webster of Harvard univer-
sity and DR.. George Parkman, each we'll
known in his day-the one for his great
wealth and the other for his intellectual
qualifications.
There are men still living who can re-
member this celebrated case. Crimes
equally atrocious were committed before
and have been committed since, but the
standing Of these men makes this case one
OF the most remarkable in the history of
crime.
On Nov. 90, 1s49, Professor Webster was
charged with the murder of Dr. Parkman
on the following counts: 1. Charging Web
ster with tho murder of Parkman with q
knife. 2. The numbering of Parkman with
u hammer. 3. The murder of Parkman by
striking and beating with implements un-
known. 4. Numbering Parkman by means
unknown to the jurors
In this trial the court sat IL days, and
10 witnesses were examined. At that
time, under the laws of Massachusetts,, a
prisoner could not testify, SO that during
the trial the lips of the accused were
sealed.
In order that tho readers of the later
generation may the better understand this
remarkable case it will be in order to give
brief biographical sketches of the princi-
pals in this historic tragedy.
George Parkman was born in Boston in
1871. He graduated ut Harvard in 1909
and three years afterward took o degree in
medicine at the University of Aberdeen,
in Scotland. A scholar by inclination,
his large wealth gave him no incentive to
practice his profession, and so he devoted
his life to his library and the care of his
property. He was slender, delicate man,
and although only feet 10 inches in
height looked much taller because of his
narrow shoulders and hollow chest. His
brother, the Rev. Francis Parkman, was
for nearly generation pastor of the we'll
known New North church, in Boston.
