NEW WITNESS FOUND
TO BAILEY KILLING
Mother of Slain Woman Lays
Shooting in DR.. Carman's
Office to Jealousy.
Continued from First PageD

she is q wonderful woman--different
from my little girl-yes, different.
they always called MY girl little
mother Little mother wasn't any
bigger than her daughter. and they
looked so much alike. and they could
wear the same clothes. Ny girl knew
everybody hereabouts., She was a
licht-hearted cheerful thing She
spoke to everybody in Hampstead.
Every body liked her.
They said in the papers that SYM
patty was felt for the little Carman
girl and that she was placed in a hard
position to testify about her mother.
But what do they say of my two
motherless little ones?
My daughter was q pure. chaste
woman and wife. She did not know
stefan she had seen and thought in
telljgent. She said TO me after she
met him at Mir. Kimbalrs. I rather
admire that man. He looks as though
nc knew something
'Lu was not sick. but / had urged
her to see a physician. because she had
complained for two or three weeks
about little puffs under her eyes, which
! thought indicated kidney trouble.
Somehow Lu didn't care to call on the
doctor We have had in Hampstead.
though he is an able, clever man. l
don't know why. Women are funny
about their doctors. She had no idea
of visiting DR.. Carman when she left
mere Indl lueSudS, ain SURE Sdh
see in my mind and feel in my heart
that this is the truth about her vikit:
When she left home she meant to be
back for a late supper It's m hours
ride from Rockville Center.
Lays Crime to Jealousy.
After she left Mrs. Graham's house
on the car she must have felt weak
and sick. II was after supper time.
Passing through Freeport she must
have thought, TINS is where that DR..
Carman lives. He didn't know her. He
says Sc. and ne sent for Bedell to
IF Mrs. Carman shot her. it was in
g state of jealous madness. when she
would have killed any woman who
happened to be there.
They say the doctors wife is q
woman of culture and refinement but
how could she put in a photograph to
pry on the secrets Of her husbands
Patients? a doctor is just like a
minister. Folks open their lives to
all those women, It wouldn't have
been SC bad if she listened TO one
woman of whom she was jealous, but
she listened to them all.
And still. | am perhaps better of
than the mother of Mrs. Carman. NJ
daughter is dead. but Mrs. Carman. if
she is guilty, has worse to face than
death Il she faces trial and is acouit-
TED, sho still has worse to face than
death. Think of her suffering conscience
that viii not give her a moments rest.
Il have friend who has been a pa
tent OF DR.. Carman's for twenty years.
She has been great comfort to me in
my sorrow. She described for me the
plan Of the doctors house, and she says
the back stairs open through the pam
try into the doctors private office.
She said TO me right away before
anybody had suspected Mrs. Carman,
Mrs. Duryea, L hate TO say II. but I
feel that your daughter was shot by
someoody inside the Doctors house l
have come to feel the sane way.
How Was Window Broken?
'what was happening before the au-
thorities were called? How do We know
that the window was broken from the
outside: But the district attorney does
say he feels sure of this. How. then
OF the shooting? Was l. moved about
sfterwaro? Why did the authorities al
low those people to move about all over
the county without watching for so long
after the shooting? think Mrs. Carman
fred the shot from inside of the room.
Perhaps the window was broken Just TO
distract the doctors attention
i feel that the pistol used is down at
me ooftom of one of the marshes be
yond Freeport, and l feel that DR.. Car
men hAO"S NOW IL got there.
The man who can tell all about nv
daughters death is DR.. Carman He
knows. He can clear away all this
mystery If he wants to. He saw who
tired the shot. There was a light in
the room. If the window was broken
from outside and he saw the hand. whv
didn't he see the face behind it? Per-
hsps he did. Somebody has said that
my girl was lying down. Wasn't she
shot IN the back? How could she have
rI-r15
Her dress-I haven't seen It'll
haven't had the heart to look at it. 10
touch it-her dress shows that the
bullet went in the back of the arm
marks they say now is blood. The
bullet hole is right between two but
tons. There is line Of buttons around
the armholes and down the seams in
the back
That was an awful hing they said
about my poor girl-that she went TO
roedhouses and drank It was a ter
r1ble lie ard cruel
Il do feel deep pity for Mrs Car
man in her position. II is an awful
position whether she is guilty or inno-
cent Her mothers sudden breakdown
must be due 10 her knowledge Of what
happened.
The morning after nv daughter was
kilIad ] thought some Jealous husband
had shot to kill the Doctor. But when |
that dictograph vas found then knew
I was the doctors wife. ] don't believe
she fired TO kill Lu. She fired a shot !
20 frighten her husband She never |
knew Lu. She says that. And it's the |
doctor who knows why that Jealous |
woman wanted to scare him. Why can't |
ne truth be torn from his lips? The |
doctor must tell. He must be made to |
tell. He can explain how my daughter |
comes 10 be taken from me in this aw-
tuI way Yes he must tell. and when |
the truth comes God pity the doctors |
wife
