tion with the case Dr. Belcher was
arrested after it was aseertained his

the Booker creek bridge at three
O'Clock Saturday morning, a short
distance from where the body of the
girl was found in the creek several
hours later.

summoned to attend a patient WITH a
cut finger. He was guided to the lone
ly bridge, where tive men awaited
him, one with an injured finger, which
he dressed. He said one man entered
his car and backed it into the bog and
the other threw a bloody handkerchief
into the rear. which accounted for the
blood on the seat and rug.
