hold back the lump in her throat, Miss

told her father the morning of the
tragedy. Estes, she said, gave her a
drink of whisky while they were out
buggy riding on the afternoon prior to
the killing After taking the drink,
she declared, she began to feel dizzy,

been given some powerful drug. In
this condition and despite her protests,
she declared, her escort drove her
over an unfrequented road and de-
spite her screams outraged her.
