liberating sixty hours the jury in the
trial of DR.. B. Clark Hyde found him
guilty of numbering Colonel Thomas
H. Swope, the millionaire and phil

Imprisonment.
Thus ended one of the most remark
able murder cases of a decade, in
which, it was charged that the doctor
planned to secure the immense Swope
fortune by killing off his wifes entire
family with disease germs and subtle
poisons.
AS the words of conviction were
spoken, Mrs. Hyde broke down and
hurried to the side of her husband.
Her two sisters-in-law, Mrs. e. M.
Hopkins and Miss Laura Hyde,
mingled their tears with hers, but the
physician stoically and with fixed ex-
preston of the mouth said not a
word, For a time he was even unable
to whisper a word of announcement
to
at his side.

in connection with the mysterious i'll

followed soon after he had suffered a
severe convulsion and this convulsion,
