TWO MORE WOMEN

MRS. THOMPSON APPEALS

MRS. THOMPSON APPEALS
BY LUTHER A. HUSTON,

LONDON, Dec. 12.-An unpar-
alleled record in the history Of
modern British courts, and one
which created a sensation through
out the entire nation, was achieved
today when Justice ShearTuan,
presiding in the historic Old Bal
ley Court, sentenced two women
to be hanged.
Less than twenty-four hours
earlier the same Judge had SEN
fenced another woman to death
Mrs. Edith Thompson.
SLEW HER CHILD.
All three women had been con
victed Of first degree murder Those
sentenced to death today were
Mary Jones and Daisy Wright. All
three were doomed in the same
prisoners dock and received the
treatment men would have ex
pected under the British law.
The case that excited the great
est pity was that Of Daisy Emily
Wright. who drowned her thirty,
months-old child in the Thames
River in November because Of pow.
erty. The mother tried to leap into
the river after her daughter. but
was seized on the bridge rail.
Robert Wright, the husband, q
gun maker, testified he had been
out Of work for two years.
Louis Holoman testified that he
had seen the woman kill her child.
APPEAL SOUGHT.
Counsel for Mrs. Thompson, who
was convicted of melting her young
lover to stab to death her husband,
announced today that an appeal
would be taken and an effort made
to have the home secretary grant a
reprieve.
The fact that three women have
been sentenced to be hanged within
twenty-four hours aroused a storm
Of protest among women's organiza.
tions.
No woman has been executed in
Britain in more than fifteen years.
The last woman hanged was Mrs.
Rhoda Willis. owner Of a baby
farm" in Wales, who was found
guilty of killing babies left in her
care and hanged at Cardiff. Wales,
on August IA, 1907.
