TRAGIC SCENE AT TRIAL
Aged Father of Mrs. Mansrum Makes
Attempt to Get at the Prisoner
Charged With His Daugh
ter's Murder.
TRAGIC SCENE AT TRIAL

Nashville, Tenn. March 16-Dr. j. Her
man Feist was arrested here this morn
ing and placed in Jail for the murder
of Mrs. Rosa Mangrum, whose dead body
was found floating in the Ohio river at
Cairo ILL.,, about six weeks ago, she hav-
ing disappeared from Nashville on Deeem-
Der IA last Feist Is a well known and
prominent physician of Nashville and his
arrest caused profound sensation.
Mrs Mangrum was beautiful woman
and was highly connected in this city and
throughout the state Her disappearance
and subsequent finding of her dead body
in the Ohio river had puzzled the de-
tective forces of Nashville, st. Louis and
Chicago.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1906-03-17
Left Nashville for ST. Louis.

Mrs Mangrum was the wife of a bar
ber here. The couple had had domestic
difficulties and last December Mrs. Man
grum said she would visit relatives in
St. Louis. Mrs. Mangrum was the pos
SCISSOR of considerable money In her own
name and was a beautiful woman. No
one has been found up to this time who
actually saw Mrs. Mangrum leave Nash
Vile Her trunk which was checked to
st. Louis was found in the baggage room
in Chicago and detectives from that city
were at once enlisted to aid the men
from st. Louis and the local police. Mr..
Mangrum had been searching for his wife
ever since her relatives reported from st.
Louis that she had not arrived there and
had about given up when her body was
found floating in the Mississippi near
Cairo Her clothes were not disturbed,
some money and jewelry was still in
her possession, but according to those
who saw the body there were evidences
of finger marks about the throat The
body had been in the water for some
time.
The detectives who made he arrest to-
day claim TO have large batch of cir
enmstantiaf evidence against DR.. Feist
but they decline TO divulge 1t at this
time. DR.. Feist is known, however, TO
have borrowed money from Mrs. Mangrum
and It is claimed by those interested in
his arrest that the doctor was seen with
Mrs. Mangrum on the afternoon of the
night she disappeared. The warrant
charges DR.. Feist with both robbery and
murder.
