EVIDENCE POINTS TO THE VIEW
THAT THE GUINNESS FlEND
is ALIVE.
NO MORE BODIES FOUND
The Remains Of Ten Victims She Had
Buried In the Yard Of Her Home
May Not Be All.

There is no better way of indicating
the dcmoniacal qualities now generally
ascribed 10 Mrs. Belle Guinness than
by saying that when il was announced
Saturday night that no more bodies
mad been ding up in that garden or
death on the Guinness place, every
body in Laporte was surprised. Yet
that awful find Of the remains of ten
persons, three of whom were her own
children. who were victims Of her lust
for blood and money Is sufficiently
appalling record Of her awful life. AL

the woman has now become in the
public mind perfect paragon of blood.
lust, craft and treachery Apparently
nobody would be surprised TO learn
that every square yard Of her 50-acre
farm is sown with the bodies of her
victims.
Meantime where is Belle Guinness?
Are those fragments of female body
that lie in the morgue charred past
recognition really hers or are they
the remains OF still one more OF her
victims intended to throw dust in the
eyes OF the police until the multimur
derer makes good her escape? Certain
things stand out as facts-hard and
brutal facts that cannot be explained
away, indicating that this unparalleled
female criminal is living and trying
TO escape detection aud capture Evil
dence has come 10 light that she had

as the womans agent in Turing people
to her horror farm. outside Of La

whose attractiveness was used by Mrs.
Guinness to lead her victims on until
they fell prey to her thirst for blood
and money.
These facts were unearthed by an
examination OF the 81 letters written
by the woman 10 Andrew Helgelein
The letters describe with certainty the
womSns fellow-worker.
Helgelein said Saturday: IL shall
have my brother Haivor, at Aal Hal
