SAYS DEATH WAS
Due TO ACCIDENT.
Coroner's Jury in Case of Mrs. Lola
Knox Refutes Theory of
Suicide.

1t was the verdict Of the Coroner that
Ars. Lola Knox. who died Just after mid
night Thursday at her home. No. 224 Olive
street, from laudanum poisoning. came to
her death as the result of an accident.
Mrs. Knox conducted a rooming- house at
the above number. Her husband, ]. C.
Knox. Is an employe of Fairbanks. Morse
& Co.. and travels most of the time. Be
fore her marriage to Knox. less than two
years ago. she was Mrs. l. A. Gilbert. a
widow who wa left considerable life in
surance by the death Of her first husband.
Her maiden name was Cassidy, and she
was formerly from PIERCE City, NO.. to
which place the body was sent for burial.
Several other families occupy the same
house with the Knoxes. The %neighbors say
that Mrs. Knox has been suffering for some
time with a very sore finger. which she had
accidentally cut with a butcher knife, and
that the pain from the wound apparently
disturbed her reason. Wednesday night a
physician dressed the wound and left a
quantity of laudanam with which the finger
could be bathed. At IL o'clock Mrs. Knox
became violently Ill. and those attending
her noticed that the laudanum phial was
nearly empty. This led to the suspicion
that she had taken the poison with the in
tent of ending her suffering. but the
C%oroners investigation seems to have
proved otherwise.
Those who live in the house say that no
quarrel had occurred between the dead
woman and her husband. and they deny
that she was in a respondent mood other
than that the pain her finger caused he.

Although he killed his S-year-old dauGh-
ter and threatened to kill her. Mrs. Angie
Everson. wife of William r. Everson. is de-
termined to do all in her power to acQuit
him of the charge of murder in the first de-
gree. for which he is now on trial in the
Clayton Circuit Court.
Everson shot and killed his 4-year-old
daughter Frances at the home Of his
father-in-law. Jacob Place. in Merameo
Heights, April 3. 1901. Jealousy Of his wife
is what is said to have led to the trouble.
Everson was out of employment and lived
at the home of his father-in-law, where
several men We're boarding. He accused his
wife of accepting the attentions OF a
boarder and attempted to assault her with
a razor. but she escaped and remained away
from him for a week. On the morning of
the killing she went into his room and they
started TO quarrel. While they were doing
50. little Franc ran into the room and
Jumped on her father's bed to kiss him. IL
was then that he shot her, and Mrs. Ever
son escaped by fleeing from the room.
Public indignation was high against Ever
son, but probably no one felt more grief for
him than his wife. He had shot himself
after shooting the little girl. and lowered
between life and death for six weeks. His
suffering caused his wife to relent, and John
Prehn. who was detailed by the Sheriff at
Eyerson's bedside. says that she would
bring him food and leave 1t by his bed. but
never speak a word to him.
Now Mrs. Everson has entirely changed

and wants her husband acquitted. To-
gether with his sisters. the Misses Bertha
and Jennie Everson, she was present at the
trial yesterday, hoping that Judge McElhin-
ney. would sustain a motion filed by the de-
PENDANTS attorney to Quash the indictment.
"Mrs. Eve-son believes thoroughly that
her husband was insane when he
the decd" said W. 6. Anthony, his attor-
ney, and consequently bears no il-feeling
toward him.. although she was somewhat
resentful at first. In fact, she feared him
for n number of years. and 1t was his
knowledge Of the fact that che feared him
that made him SO much the worse"
Mrs. Everson has decided not to live with
her husband again in the event of his
acQuittal, but, she says. she will teach her
ehiidren 10 always love and respect him.
Two of them are still living. One of them
is 6 years old and the other 3. She had the
Younger one, a little girl. with her yester-
day, and spoke tenderiy to her Of her
father. AS Everson was being led back
from the courtroom to the Jail she held her
baby up to kiss him..
Mr.. and Mrs. Place and their closest
%neighbors have also forgiven Everson for
his deed. Mr.. and Mrs. Reuben Hanks. in
whose house Everson was taken after he
shot himself, shook hands with him in the
courtroom yesterday and inquired about his
general condition.
No evidence was taken. yesterday. The
trial was not resumed until the afternoon
and the remainder Of the day was con-
sumed in arguing a motion to Quash the In
dictment. The motion was made on a
charge that Mrs. Everson was called to tes-
tify in the case before the Grand Jury.
Judge Mckinney overruled II. The trial
will be re-umed this morning at 8 o'clock.
