which the state has presented as the
one worn by the dead man when he
was killed, was not the one he wore
that morning, IL Is not considered
likely his testimony will be of much
material benefit to the prosecution.
Public sympathy is now all on the
side of the accused woman and today
the townspeople are falling over one
another to assure her that they ''nev-
er did believe any of the stories" about
her. But she retains her impressive at
titude and walked into the court house
today as serene and confident as on
the day she heard the indictment read

portant and he was followed by Mrs.

day swore he found yard stick, which

house at any time following the death
of her husband until late that evening.
Miss Gertrude Sampson, sister or
the dead man, her brother, and mother.
Mrs. Harriet Sampson, followed each
other on the stand but threw absolute
ly no light ON the tragedy. Earl c.
Serviss, uncle of Mildred ServisS
swore that his niece was IA years old.
despite the fact that she appears quite
a young woman. He knew that Rob
ert Manson had met his niece and also
that both were friendly with Georgia
Sampson His testimony was imma-
terial.
Undertaken Steiger recalled TO iden-
fifty the shirts shown in court as the
ones he took from the body Of Harry

not do so.
