Indianapolis, on Tuesday were the
greatest in the history Of the party.
The west wanted to show the east
what could be done In notification
honors, and, while Mrs. Marshall was
happy, of course, over the honors for
her husband, she was also worried. for
her husband comes mighty close to
being father. husband. son and part
ner all in one And when a woman
has that combination on her hands to
care for she has every right to be
worried.
Governor Marshall will never gain
any honors as hammer thrower. He

After the death of his parents Gov.
ernor Marshall dived deeper into his
law practice, and one day an urgent
case took him to Angola, Ind. His du.
ties called him to the county clerks
offlce, and there he met Miss Lois
Kimsey, daughter Of the county clerk,
who was assisting her father in the
office.
From that day Governor Marshall
had more business around the county
clerks Office in Angola than any law
yer in half a dozen nearby counties.
Governor Marshall was forty-two
years of age when he was married,
Mrs. Marshall being nearly twenty
years his junior.
The Marshalls had been married
only a few weeks when the future
vice-president was called to an adjoin-
ing county on q case that would con-
sumo some five or six weeks Of his
time.
"Now, I did not want to be starting

SIX MEMBERS OF FAMILY AND
TWO FRIENDS MURDERED.
Victims Heads Are Mashed and an

lnent Villisca business man, his
wife and four children-Herman, IL;
Catherine, 8; Boyd, z; Paul, 6-and
Misses Edith and Blanch Spillinger,
20 and 1S, friends Of the Moores, were
found murdered in the Moore home.
Their heads had been mashed and an
ak covered with blood and hair was
found.
All were murdered in their beds.
There is no definite clew to the muir
derer although search is being made,
it is said, for one person suspected by
the authorities.
Owing to the terrible mutilation, the
identity of the two young women could
not at first be established. They were
believed to be Mrs. Van Glider and
her daughter, relatives of the Moores.
Later they were positively identified
as the Spillinger sisters, daughters Of
a wealthy farmer living few miles
from Villisca, who had been in at
tendance at a church entertainment
here the night previous.
Horses neighing in the barn at the
Moore home caused woman neighbor
to notice that no member Of the family
appeared to be up. After failing to
effect an entrance to the house, the
city marshal was summoned and the
doors forced.
Moore and his wife were the first to
be discovered. They were lying in
their bed in front room. Then came
the finding of the bodies of the two
guests and later those of the children
in third room.
No robbery was committed and it
seems that only a desire for revenge
could have prompted the murder un-
less the work was done by madman.
