for the murder Of the Rev. Edward W..
Hall and Mrs. Eleanor K. Mills, after

did not tell the truth he would be
beaten. That was on Monday, October

that at that time he already had made

In summing up for the defense Wal

sideshow of the famous murder case
that has been heard all over the coun-
try and has held the front pages Of
the newspapers since September l6.
This case is the result Of the only
action we have seen in the murder

opinion, has been made the goat. His
low mentality was responsible for his
making such conflicting statements.
Mrs. Jane Gibson, star witness for
the state in the recent grand jury pro
eeedings, was heard from again to-day.
She said that she had received assur-
ances from the authorities that they
had confidence in her story and had
notified her 10 be ready 70 appear be-

According TO Mrs. Gibson, the one
important point she is unable to clear
