Chopped on His SOM. Head.

CLINTON, Ia, April IAN atrocious
butchery was discovered by the police in
the city, During the night August Swan
son took an old hatchet and chopped off
the head of his z year old son Albert. The
crime was deliberately committed. Swan
son, when arrested, gave no reason for the
crime, Swanson was few years ago in
sane, and the death of his wife and lack of
work had probably again crazed him and
led him to commit the crime.
