it would not be long before ev-

Topeka, Kan, May 9.-The
supreme court today affirmed
the decision of the lower courtin
the case of the state VS.. Jessie
Morrison. Jessie Morrison was
declared guilty of killing Mrs.
Olin Castle three years ago at
the Castle home in Eldorado.
The decision means % years.
The decision was written by
Justice John c.. Pallock, the
others concurring. 1t says in
part:
Upon the theory of the trag-
edy as maintained by the state,
the murder was a butchery OF
such savage and vicious nature
as is rarely equalled, never ex-
celled, in the criminal history OF
a civilized world; that search for
a parallel so shocking must be
among the traditions of alb
origines.
cit was indeed a brutal deed,
utterly lacking in mitigating or
extenuating circumstances, alike
