his wife. Asking the woman if she
wanted any help, Mrs EckIeberg ex-
claimed. Yes, come and save me-"

by Eckleberg who was brandishing
a chair above him. During the fight
that ensued Worden struck Eckle-
berg a blow in the face, rendering
him unconscious. He died the next
morning WOrden was not arrested,
he having struck in self-defense.
Eckleberg served ten days in jail last
winter for wife beating.
