Mrs. Hartman herself perfected
the final arrangements for the
funeral. With her daughters, Mary
and Carol, she directed everything.

Arden estate, "and is bearing up
well"

Mrs. Hartman. These policemen
took up their stand along The road,
guarding all approaches to the
house of Tower Hill and to the little
