instigated the crime. Emily Blake was
enamored of the husband of Mrs. Lane
The shooting OF the woman was cold
blooded, she having been shot in the
back. With the cunning instinct of a
murderess she Immediately rushed to the
house of a neighbor, thence to the police
station, at both places declaring IN an
excited manner that tramp had killed
her mistress who had been ordered away
from the house. For several days there
after the police secured the country in
search of the man described infinitely by
the Blake woman.
But she told subsequently SO many con-
ficting stories that suspicion was direct
ed, against herself, and within a short
time the authorities were in possession
of a confession from Miss Blake. 1t was
in this confession that she strenuously
declared that her deep and fervent love
for Mrs. Lanes three children, and her
desire to obtain control of them, induced
her to commit the fearful deed. The
true reaSon-her love for Lane-she
would not admit. If Mr. Lane was ever
aware of the affection he had inspired
in this passionate and vindictive girl, 1t
is quite certain that he did not recp-
rocate 1t.
