KILLING Me-
CRIES MRS. GRACE

ATLANTA, Ca, April daisy Opie
Grace is breaking down under the
strain of waiting for the news that the
man she loved has passed 10 the be-
yond. The man who brings the tidings
will also bring the command that she
must once more enter a prison cell ac-
cused as his assassin. Yesterday she
granted an interview in her room in a
secluded house of an Atlanta suburb to
which she was taken from the hotel.
She was ROBBED in . dark blue silk XII
mono, relieved with white embroidery.
Her dark, wavy hair was carefully
dressed. A massive gold bracelet on
her shapely left arm was the only
jewel she wore.
II have never believed that Mr..
Grace would die she said. but now
the doctors seem so certain that every
second the dread is with me. l have
not known a moments peace since the
dav l came from Newman to hear
that [ had been accused. It's too terri
BILE to speak OF. It's killing me. l
can't read. can't talk. l can't even
listen. Can't even sleep. | have to lie
here and think, think. think.
ITS better to be here than in a no
tel or in the Tower. l guess I'll be in
the Tower by this time next week.
Sunshine is what | need now. /
believe if I could get plenty of it I
would get well, but l can't get II even
out here. people stare at me So"
Adxices from Newman report Grace
growing weaker. Doctors say death
may come at any moment.
