Application for Bond for Mrs. En-.
ma Rivers IS Presented to
State Criminal Court Of
Appeals
MORE TESTIMONY
is INTRODUCED
Defense Offers Affidavits to Offset
Evidence Of State---Affidavit
Of Doctor Declares Jail Life
Dangerous to Defendant

On next Monday it is expected tee
state court Of criminal appeals will
render decision which viii deter
mine whether Mrs. Emma Rivers shall
be allowed bail or shall remain in Jail
while awaiting trial on charge OF be-
ing one Of the murderers Of Sherman
Woodward.
Before the state court at Oklahoma
City Friday the application Of Mrs.
Rivers for bond was presented BY her
Attorney r. E. Riddle, who offered
several witnesses and a number Of af-
fldavits to convince the court that bail
should be allowed. County Attorney
Simpson and his assistant, Judge Hold
ing, who represented the state at the
hearing offered no testimony in addi.
tion to that contained in the record
OF the preliminary trial that was held
before Justice Moore here, but they
stated today that some counter affi-
davits would be forwarded to the court
at cnce.
The testimony offered BY the defense
tended to discredit the testimony Of
certain witnesses for the state and
also to show that Mrs Rivers was in
such physical condition as to make
her confinement in Jail extremely dan
gerous to life An affidavit Of Dr. L
+. Emanuel declared that thee ondi
ton CT the defendant and the Jail con
ditions were such that if Mrs Rivers
were kept in the county prison, hei
life would be imperiled
Among the witnesses for the defens,
whose testimony was offered eithel
orally or by affidavit were Webb Neal
Henry Rivers, Joe De Andrea and Mr.
Neville, who refuted the testimony 0
John Batright in the preliminary tria
in regard to seeing Mrs. Rivers nea
the city hall on the afternoon 0
March q. They testified that Mrs
| Rivers was at her home at that time
Dave Brooks and w C. Blackstop,
gave testimony as'to the time whei
Mrs. Rivers was seen at the Kozy the
ater Mrs. j. s. Hahn testified tina
about March i she had heard Mrs
Woodward say, C. durn Sherma
Woodward, ! could eat his heart Oh
and watch it beat Witness also sal
she had heard Mrs. Woodward say 81
hated Mrs. Rivers.
Ms. Nora Bend said she was in tn
Woodward home about ten days befor
the poisoning and she heard Mr.
Woodward say she hated her husban
and was going to leave him. Mr.
lWm. Bledsoe said she had sold Mr.
Woodward a corset in 1911 and ths
the latter's husband had objected I
! it. The witness said in the diseussio
Mrs Woodward used vile, profane an
vulgar language in regard to her hu
band saying she hated him and wa
going 10 leave him, holding him in .
ter contempt
Mamie Hunt a negro woman, sal
I she saw Mrs. Rivers at the Woodwal
home the day Woodward died and ii
e following day and saw nothing o
Of the way in her actions.
N VIM. Godon testified that John IT
y mont couldn't write. tending to d
d credit the statement Of Mrs. Woo
