r.. Is. RVerS-Dont know.
John r. Long don't blame Cudahy
for what he has done at all.
G.. n. Wright-Had ! been Mr. Cud-
ahy Mr.. Lilis would not have been in
the hospital.
II. n. Mitchell-Somebody should
have taken Cudahy and beat his head
off. Let men like Cudahy stay at
home.
Deputy District Attorney Arthur l..
| Veitch-Legally, there can be no ques-
ton that Cudahy's act was wanton and
unjustifiable. Morally should want
| to know more of his private life before
passing judgment. Let him who is
without SIM" etc.
II. c. Wyatt, lessee Mason Opera
lIouse--lf the victim had been friend
of Mrs. Cudahy and only an acquaint-
ance of the husband, | would say that
Cudahy's act was in no way justified
| If, however, as reported, the man was
personal friend of Cudahy and VIC.
lated that friendship beneath his roof,
/ should say that Cudahy did not in
|
err the case.
Earl Rogers-Owing to the haze of
politeness and propriety thrown over
the dispatches of your correspondent,
| can neither commend nor disprove
the conduct of Mr.. Cudahy. | can't
tnd out just what he did. If could
get Cudahy's account of this domestic
episode | could give better opinion.
The Rev. T. c. Horton--lt was abou,
the only thing to do with him.
The Rev. J. r. Marshall--No punisG.
ment is too severe for such an Of
fender
r. f. Caister-Cudahy should have
killed Lillis. That midnight attack, if
had had a hand in it, would have
ended with the death of the million
are banker If | had welded that
knife it would have been no mere cut
ting affray-the knife would have gone
to vital spot.
Charles ID. Smead-Probably | would
have sneaked off to the club and con.
sidered myself lucky in having discov-
cred the duplicity of my wife. Ger
tainly | would have tried to consider
the punishment before hasty action.
Chester ID. Thompson - Don't ask
me. This is one of the hardest ques-
tions have ever tried to answer. The
situation is an unusual one, for Ger:
tainly such wrongdong is the eXcep.
ton. All depends on the moment of
| "A W | lnCp m
head or not.
| II. l.. Rivers would certainly have
tried to put a man of this kind out OF
business. There is no room on earth
for any one who will destroy home
and bring shame to the name of a
family.
B. A. Holmes, jr.-Cutting up would
be too good a punishment to mete out
TO wretch who will defile home
He should be hanged and quartered in
the old English style. Just what
would do is a question | can't answer
R. J. Morrell-Pass it up. Have
never given the matter thought, and
therefore am unable to answer the
question. The action of man in such
situation is one that comes on the
! spur of the moment.
!, Al GreenWald i believe Cudahy
went after the wrong one. | believe
the woman is more to blame than Lii
lis. She should not have encouraged
him to visit her Sometimes the
temptation gets away with the mer
when it is put before him strong. Lii
lis did not want to go in that night
No, | do not believe Cudahy should
have cut up Lillis the way he did.
Robert Wesley Blair-The sanctity
of the home must be preserved at any
cost. ! cannot conceive that mar
ried woman with children has any
: right to place herself in danger o
compromising her reputation.
George Hancock-Of course, We
have to give the woman the benefit o
the doubt. If al is true, as Cudah!
claims, believe he should have done
Just as he did, and also accomplished
his further purpose, which was inter
rupted by the policeman.
Billy Manning - Although Cudahy'!
act may have been barbarous, | be
lieve he was right in doing what he
did No doubt he loved his wife ant
the things he saw made him insane
with jealousy and rage. Liuis had NJ
: business there, and no matter wha
} may have happened to him, it was hi
own fault. 1t is too often the case tina
| business men pay too little atteptiol
to their wives.
Byron L. Erkenbrecher--I can't eX
g actly see righteous outburst of indig
! nation on the part of the husband.
4 man has the right to protect the sane
tity of his home when there is sane
L tity to protect But if his wife ant
the mother of his children has beer
I careless of it, l am inclined to thinl
