Claude f. Hanson and Miss Ida
Seign, two we'll known and highly
esteemed young people of this city,
have, perhaps, ere this appears in
print, been united for life. Miss
Seign departed yesterday for Min
neapolis, but her friends believe she
will meet her betrothed at Crooks
ton or somewhere else on the way
to have the ceremony performed. At
any rate, there will be one more
happy couple started on the matri-
|monial journey one of these days.
Lfhe many friends Of both young
people extend hearty congratula-
tions and best wishes to the happy
pair. They deserve all the good
things that a successful welded life
|can bring.

JUSTICE FURMAN
REVERSES DECISION
RIGHTS OF POOR HELD SACRED
IN EYES OF LAW-SILENCE is
NOT CONSENT, UNDER ARREST.

Oklahoma City, Jan. 19.-In revers-
| ing the decision of the superior
court o. Oklahoma ,oULty, conyl, t.
lag Agnes Gilbert, a poor washer
woman, who killed her paralyzed hus-
band in Oklahoma City three years
ago, Judge Henry Furman in the
criminal court of appeals Saturday
held that poverty was no bar to JUS
tice and that the rights of the poor
est are as sacred in the eyes of the
law as those of the most influential
society fayorltes in Oklahoma. In
the lower court, Mrs Gilbert was
found guilty of manslaughter in the
second degree and her sentence was
placed at two years in the state
peitentiary. The decision was re-
versed and the case remandeI for
new trial.
The main error in the case, as
pointed out by Judge Furman, was
the fact that Superior Judge Oldfield
refused to allow testimony showing
the good character Of the defendant
prior to the crime. This he pointed
out, was a mitigating circumstance
and that the punishment according
to the law, might have been much
lighter than it was. In his closing
remarks, he said: ''It is true that
she is only a poor washerwoman and
without friends, influence or money
and is dependent upon the charity of
her attorneys for defense, but she
is a human being and her rights
are as sacred in the eyes of the Law
as if she were the wealthiest and
most influential favorite in Oklaho-
ma
Throughout her trial Mrs. Gilbert
was defended by Attorney Moman
Pruiett, who fought hard the battles
0f the poor woman. Through him
The appeal was made and his Wig !
orous action received only the thanks |
)f this poor human being who is |
before the bar of justice.
Silence is not consent when a man |
S under arrest. This was held by |
Judge Furman in reversing a second !
case appealed from the
court OF Pottawatomie coun-
y, in which Pat Ellis of that coun.
y was convicted. At the trial it
vas stated that it was asid in !,
ellis presence that he had "killed
Mr. Sapp" and he didn't deny the
'harge. Judge Furman said in his |
opinion that it was not required of q
nan under arrest to deny to signify
lis innocence.
