written law has been upheld again, this
time in the Sanderson case. The jury
decided that Arthur Sanderson, charged
with the murder Of DR.. Solomon D.
Meredith in Carthage January 2 is not

who had been their family physician,
had made love to her when she went
to his Office to consult him..
In the arguments of counsel for the
defense a parallel with the Thaw case
was drawn and the unwritten law was
brought out. Attorney Shannon said
there was evidence of an exaggerated
ego insthat the defendant thought him
selfprovidentially called upon to avenge
h ravfshment of his wife. He de-
clared that DR.. Meredith deserved the
fate he met.
