MISS IoNA DUNLAP had been regiyen
to her by those twelve men, rushed to
them and thanked them for what they
had done.
iona Dunlap, the bosom friend of Miss
Dool and one who, but for the clrcum-
stantial evidence that accumulated
against her, would be among the last
to be suspected of taking the life of the
young woman, is one of the most popular
young girls in Aledo, as was Miss Dool
before her death.
The case is one of the most interesting
in the criminal annals of Illinois. On the
night of Aug. Miss Dunlap purchased
some chocolates and shared them with
Allie Dool her closest friend Miss Dool
was Immediately taken i'll and died short
ly afterward in great agony. In her dy-
ing statements she practically accused
Miss Dunlap of poisoning her,
When suspicion pointed to Miss Dun
lap she found many supporters, and sew
eraI weeks passed in the accumulation OF
evidence by the States Attorney before
the authorities ventured to take her into
custody. The preliminary trial before
justice of the peace resulted in her dis
charge from custody, but later the
States Attorney presented the evidence
to the grand jury, and Miss Dunlap was
indicted.
The State proved that the defendant
purchased poison from a drug store
few days before the death of Allie Dool.
On this point the State laid great stress,
and on the face of it the evidence looked
bad. But Miss Dunlap's attorneys
brought forward her sister, who swore
positively that iona came to her room
at night, sat on the floor, removed her
shoes and stockings, took the package of
poison and applied the entire contents on
a corn on one of her toes.
The death of Allie Dool is more of
mystery than ever. This case has been
ever one of mystery. After five long
weeks, weeks in which every effort has
been made to probe into its secrets it is
only deeper.
