a very Jealous disposition which,
combined with q terrific temper,
makes him d man to be feared

Walker, while teaching school
near Bowbells, attended a teach
ers' institute'in Minot and met d
young woman teachergawith
whom he fell ins:love, at first
sight, you might say The wo.
man accepted his attentions but
did not return his salove, ii but
Walker was persistent and press
ed his suit until the young giswo-
man could bear his actions no
longer. -----------..----..-.------.--..
She soon after married q
prominent young real estate
dealer. in Balfour, and about
that time Walker began to send
obscene letters thru the mails,
attempting to damage the repu-
tation of his former sweetheart.
He went as far as to threaten
her lite and was arrested several
times, but always managed to be
set free when he promised to 60
away and forget his troubles.
Onenight WalkerSwalkeed into
Balfour, went to the home of his
former sweetheart while she and
husband were sitting about the
supper table, and attempted to
kill them 10th. The husband
jumped up and grabbed Walker
and be was arrested. The Fed
eral authorities took him itin
charge, and, it appeared for a
time as though he would tbesent
to the Federal prison.. Thru his
attorneys a plea Of insanity was
made and Walker was sent to
the insane asylum where he now
ia. just before Walker was taken
away he wrote the Independent
q letter stating that he was not
insane, and that he thought best
to spend q few months in the
asylum; rather than spend q term
