In response to a telegram received
yesterday B, A. Walton departed last
evening for Wheaton, Mimi, where he
will act as reporter for the circuit court
during the Seidenster murder trial
This is the trial of thirteen year old
girl who killed her lover, to whom she
had been engaged because he refused to
marry her. The girl expresses no sor-
row or regret. She says that they made
an agreement when they became
engaged that if either broke the engage.
ment without the consent of the other
then that other had right to kill on
sight. AS the young man HAD broken
the engagement without her consent
she killed him and claims that under
their agreement she had perfect right
to do so. On account of the tender age
of the murderess the case will attract
much interest.
