maintained by Catherine Botti, thir-
teen, who Is now in jail here charged
with the murder of Pasquale Volpe,
forty her godfather, because of his
unwelcomed attentions to her.

eral blows later with a hatchet and
then pierced his lifeless body with a
red hot poker,
When confronted with this new evil
dence this morning she did not change
one particle but said:

a hatchet and hit him two or three
times. Then I heated poker and
pushed It into his body. He had
broken my heart and ! wanted to
break his"

detail and have been unable to find
proof for their theories that persons
