DR.. ROBBINS CONVICTED
ON SERIOUS CHARGE
Native of This Parish And
Had Practiced Medicine
At Pine, La.

Baton Rouge. La, Oct. 1l.-Dr.
Estes D. Robbins, eye. ear. nose and
throat specialist, was found guilty
of an attempted criminal assault
upon Alma Black, the l3.year-old
daughter of Cole Black, in the Dis.
trict Court here tonight at the con.
clusion of the two days trial. The
jury was out but only twenty min
utes.
The physician received the YER
dict without a trace of emotion.
His aged mother, who was in the
courtroom beside him, stoically
wiped her eyes and fought the
tears back.
DR.. Robbins wife, who already
was sobbine when the jury filed in
to the room, became hysterical. She
placed her hands together in the
attitude of PRAYER,
"Oh. my poor little boys" she
cried.
Every available part of the court
room was corwded with a surging
mass of humanity when the verdict
was read. The crowd had overlooked
into the rallied space reserved for
court officials and attorneys, and it
formed a narrow Semicircle behind
the chairs occupied by Dr.. Robbins
and his grief-stricken family. There
was no demonstration by the crowd
DR.. Robbins mother and wife
and another woman relative
retired to the jury room and a dep.
uty sheriff brought the physician
into the court room with them. Cole
Black and the dozen odd members
of his family left, the courtroom
with the crowd.
PRISONERS WIFE FAINTS
When the halls of the courthouse
had cleared, DR.. Robbins was led
under (ulrd to the parish Jail, a few
hundred feet away and his family
followed him. In the office of the
jail the prisoner wife tainted and he
ministered to her while an officer
