house and knocked at the back door. He
came into the kitchen and ] bought 70
cents worth Of articles from him. He
wanted me to buy more and when
refused he insulted me.
Il then ordered him out of the house.
Instead Azeen started up and ran after
me. | fed to my bedroom and just as
he seized me / pulled open the dresser
drawer and got my husbands 32-calibre
revolver.
Il drove the man back to the kitchen
screaming for help all the time at the
top Of my voice. Arthur King and
Thomas Ryan happened to be passing
the house at the time and they both
rushed into the kitchen
Il told them what happened and just
as | did so Azeen fled across the hall
towards an exit on the other side of the
house, | had given King the revolver
and he fred two or three shots and
Azeen dropped dead. He fell in the pass
age at the west side of the house.
King only interfered to save me-
Had he and Ryan not come when they
did, ! don't know what might have hap
pened."
As soon as the killing was reported
in Clinton by Mrs. Clement, VINO ran
mile to telephone, Chief Of Police Muir
ply and Patrolman Peter ]. Flaherty
drove to the house in the patrol wagon.
King was arrested and taken to the po-
lice station, Ryan, who Mrs. Clement
says was with King, could not be found.
He is being looked for as a witness.

the yard as he drove in, but the man
