NEGRO ADMITS HE
DECAPITATED GIRL

Memphis, Tenn, May 81. G..
Persons,a negro, who late last night
confessed to killing Antoinette Rap
pal, 15-year-old school girl, and
decapitating her near here several
days ago, was today taken to the
penitentiary at Nashville, where he
will be held for safe-keeping.
Persons, according to Sheriff
Tate, confessed that he attacked the
girl when she alighted from her BIZ
cycle near where he was working.
The first blow from his axe was a
CHANGING one and only momentarily
dazed her, according to the alleged
confession, and she fought desper-
ately until her skull was crushed
by another blow. Then, the negro
is quoted by the sheriff as having
said, he beheaded the victim, tossed
the head into thicket and dragged
the body into the underbrush,
where it was found two days later.
Persons, the sheriff declared, di-
reeted the search for the axe with
which the murder is alleged to have
been committed. It was found in
a shallow stream.
BLOOD STAINS HIS UNDoING ;
According TO the sheriff the ne
gro maintained his innocence until
his attention was called to what
was declared to he blood stains on
his shoes, Terror stricken, be ad-
mitted hisguilt, officers say ,and req
lated the details.
Persons was arrested shortly af-
ter the girls body was found, later
was released but was Kept under
surveillance until last Saturday
when he was taken into custoday.
On the theory advanced by some
criminologists that the eyes of a
person who meets violent death Of
ten mirror the last obieot viewed,
officers disinterred the girls body
yesterday and photograph Of one
of her eyes was taken. By means
of a microscope, officers assert, the
outline of mans head was dis.
covered in the photograph.
