the late Rear-Admiral Sampson, re-
eeived many calls today from relatives
and friends at the home of her parents

In a statement today the young
widow said:

death l had been to Rochester all the
afternoon. When l came home 1 left
my good clothes in the east room up-
stairs. 1 came down in the morning
and Harry was still wrangling. | was

sad. Father told me to go upslatr,s.
and keep still. L was hurt and went
away.
Il went into the front room and
tldied up something there. 1t was there

o'clock. | ran downstairs as fast as [

and l loved him more than my life. His
memory is as dear to me today as any
thing l have left on earth.''
Inc jury brought in the verdict
shortly after 10 p. IN. Mrs. Sampson
was not called to the witness-stand as
she had requested, as her attorneys.
We're satisfied with the contradiction
OF the expert testimony of the State
relating to the hole in SIMPSONS shirt.
Inc State commended that the absence

bullet. was fired from a distance. and.
therefore Sampson could not have COM
nitted suicide. The jury evidently be-
ieved that this was not proven. There
was applause in the courtroom when
the verdict was and the
prisoner was congratulated.
1t was aseertained today that for the
FIRST four of the six ballots taken by
the jury, three men voted for convic-
ton.
