had practiced as a midwife In the
United States, most of the time in Chi
cago, for thirty-five years. and had
been the cause of 1000 deaths.

having brought about the death of Miss
Lola Madison, a sister OF Mrs. Bradley,
who is being tried for the murder OF
Senator Brown. Miss Madison's dying
statement used at the trial was instru-
mental in bringing about conviction.
