Cod l believe no mistake has been

that Mrs. Edgar Linnell, mother of
the little music student and Sunday
school teacher, Avis Linnell, received
the news today that Rev. Clarence Y.
T. Richeson had been arrested for the
murder of her daughter. Mrs. Linnell,
however. voiced the belief that Mr..
Richeson was not accountable.
lie must have been out of his
mind" Mrs Linnell said, when she
recovered from the temporary break
down that followed her receipt of the
news of the arrest. Then, between
sobs, and occasional Interruptions by
her daughter, Mrs Vida Mclean Of
Brockton. Mrs Linnell told of certain
pacularities of Mr.. Richeson, which
she noticed while he was a caller at
her home during the time he held the
pastorate at the Baptist church here.
MIR. Richeson, whom / loved as
son even before he became formally
engaged to Avis, worried us often by
attacks which he had at our house.
Although they did not appear TO be
serious they left him in a highly nerv-
Gus state, and he was often forced
to leave the table beause of them. He
worried about this trouble and once
broke his engagement with AVIS Civ
ing his physical condition as the rea-
son. Their engagement was renewed,
however, and Avis. l firmly believe.

Poor little girl"
Between Mrs. Linnel and Mrs. Me-
Lean the story of the acquaintance
of Avis Linnell and the young pastor
was told. Avis, possessed of a fine
voice. was a singer in the Baptist
chorus when Mr.. Richeson assumed
the pastorate there four years ago.
She was Is years old then. The new
minister showed marked attention to
the child and within a few months
was calling at the Linnell home.
"Au first, / objected, but only be-
cause 1 thought Avis was too young.
liked Mr.. Richeson and thought him
an admirable man, and finally con-
sented when Avis told me that Mr..
Richeson loved her and they We're en-
gagged The wedding was set for last
October, but Mr.. Richesons attacks
troubled him and he broke the en-
gagement, saving he would renew it
if he found his physical condition
warranted. He became engaged to
Avis again but they had never set d
date after the first, l believe"
Mrs. Lnnell could say little more
and Mrs. Mclean then answered a few
questions.
The talk led around to the visit to
Boston last week of Mrs. Linnell.
when she saw Avis for a long time.
and also met Mr.. Richeson. MY little
girl seemed in the best of spirits and
appeared happy in her relation with
Mr. Richeson," Mrs Linnell said, and
continued saying that the minister
told her at this time that reports that
he was engaged to Miss Violet Ed
mands of BrQokline We're untrue.
$50 gay and light-nearted did Avis
seem that day that one would think

| Her music lessons were delightful to
| her, she told her mother, and every
thing was pleasant, THE child did not
give me the slightest reason to doubt
her happy spirit. Not a word or sign
did she give me to indicate her con-
dition,' her mother said.
