Thaw's family were greatly depressed by the outcome, Evelyn Thaw breaking down completely she had to le led from the court room a pitiable sight. She is almost a ner- vous wreck, and the greatest fear of the defense is that she will not be able to undergo the strain of another trial.
 This morning Thaw received a letter from his brother.in-law, Howard Nesbit, wherein the writer admitted having lied on the witness stand, and promised to stand by Thaw in the future.
