DR.. Twyman. He called DR.. HYDE to
his office and told him ho was suspect

tho Swopc family.
upon HIM the state depended largely
10 prove Dr. Hyde hed James Moss

pocted to testify regarding the alleged
attempt of DR., HYDE To poison Miss
Margaret. Swope. Miss Swope was DR..
Inywman s patient. when 1t is said DR..
Hyde tried to kill her.
When DR.. Hyde's attorneys took n
deposition from DR.. Twyman, he re-
refused to criticisc DR.. HYDE. Without
gong INTO detail. DR.. Twyman said he
approved, in general, DR.. HYDE IS work

A few feet behind the Hydes sat

She, too, paid strict attention 10 the

Many members of tho Swope family
