have TO wait and sec"

chance for Freedom" said District At

jurors who We're trying Libasci.'

ing falsely that she was not with
Libasci when Garbe was shot; that she
did not know Harry Ricca, who testified
that he accompanied Libasci to the
place where Garbe was ambushed, and

ness exclaimed, throwing her arms
over her head.
A third letter, introduced by the

follows:
"My dear Ellis: am going to wait
until You have ended your vacation,
Then when the detectives have located
you will follow them and start all

Here Miss Stone interrupted with:
"Thc Gormley woman threatened him
in the same way

woman respect man who allows a
woman of the underworld to deck him
with jewelry which She gets By associ-
ating with other men for immoral

Mystery Surrounding Death Solved

The mystery surrounding the death
of Leland c.. Gait, whose body was dis
covered on the Reynoldsburg-New AL
bany pike Thursday morning of last
week, has apparently been solved by
the statement of Loren Hartzell, of
Anderson, Ind. Hartzell claims he
was on his wax from Hamilton to
Anderson and was overtaken by an
automobile containing three men who
ordered him to halt and throw up his
hands; that one of them, gun in hand,
leaped upon the running board of mis-
machine, and that he in self defense
shot the would-be robber 1t has
developed that Cats companions
placed the body in their own machine
and placed it where it was found later.
Hartzell was brought to Hamilton,
and at hearing Tuesday was released
on his own recognizance to await the
action of the grand jury. Young
Catt's body was brought to the home
of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Mason
Gait, of Central avenue, where serv-
ices were conducted Monday morning
by Rev. M. w. Simpson of the Wood
side Presbyterian church, and the re-
mains taken to Homer for interment
