 of my wife. Not only did I read her answer to the questions asked her, but also the description of how cam and seemingly indifferent she was about the crime that disrupted my home, left my children mOtherIess and made her a widow. She is calm while my heart aches at the thought . Of my loss and the fear that the nur- derer may never be captured because :! of the stupidity of the officials at : work on the case.
 I do not, I cannot understand her calmness. I cannot understand her indifference. Is the woman made of [ stone not to feel what I feel and have ! felt since that terrible day when they told me Eleanor had been brutally murdered.
 Some of her statements are untrue, and l wonder she made them. She said to the reporters that she had not said anything of consequence. To me the day after my wife and Dr. Hall disappeared. That is not true and she knows it. She told me that she suspected foul play when her hus- band and my wife did not appear that day.
 Reporters Write Everything.
 Everybody talks and the reporters write about it, they Investigate and then talk some more. But no ac- tion. There is no move to arrest and accuse Eleanor's murderers.
 From what I hear they are more interested in the effect this case has or will have On the coming election. The officials talk pretty words about justice and law and investigation ana punishment, but that is all they do. Pretty words is all I get and my heart is torn with the fear that it will end with the pretty words and that no one will ever hay etc answer for the crime of murdering Eleanor.
 My daughter Charlotte telegraphed Gov. Edwards, asking him to bring his personal influence to bear upon Pros f0ff fT f slIsp ected person because Mr. Mott and other officials have repeatedly said that they have not sufficient evidence to ask for indictments from a Grand Jury, but the governor ignored my daughters telegram as he Ignored other requests to make certain that punished The governor has no time to answer Charlotte. l guess he Is too busy with politics
 What a terrible disillusionment this affair has been to me who had pe- Teved that justice always prevails. l have now learned that it is not so Politics always prevail, the impr1son- ment or the freed oIn of the perpetra- tors of murder I have now learned depends upon the effect it will have on politics. What a terrible ind1ct- ment that is agains the citizens or great state who permits such things to be.
 How long must this. go on? How long must and my children cry Tor Justice? Crime and murder and the loneliness of my home and children must they be only pawns in the hands of men who play politics? Is justice and right stepped upon and the law rnade a farce? No one answers me, MT. Mott is silent. Gov. Edwards is silent, too. Busy suppose making speeches about law and order
 The lor ger this thing goes on the more I fear that the officials don't in tend to act It seems to me that they want the case to drag on and on until en forgotten.
 And after that these officials will continue to talk more pretty words about law and order and justice, while Eleanor's murderer will walk the streets free person That is what am most afraid of.
