in the New York Supreme Court and
there set free without a trial. The
court announced no evidence had been
produced against the prisoner. He
had confessed killing his victim but
that did not appear to have much
bearing on the case.
II now develops that while clever
lawyers and busy brains were hard Al
work trying to save young Ward from
the shadow OF the chair in a legal
way. the elder Ward was planning an
intensive campaign OF newspaper adj
vertising. Vitovim bread was thrown
on the market Forty thousand lines
OF display advertising were placed in
number OF influential New York
newspapers OF undoubted selling pow
er. and so the stricken mother OF
Peters soon had the privilege OF read
ing in place of news OF the killing OF
her boy display advertising announc-
ing that the inventive genius OF the
elder Ward had resulted in the pro-
ducing OF a new life-giving bread.
There was an unfortunate side to
this campaign so far as Mrs. Peters
was concerned Newspaper columns
are not elastic. and the Ward advertis-
ing copy was very large. so large in
fact that possibly it seemed to crowd
out of the news columns to a large
extent further intimate details and in-
designations in connection with he
Ward case.
Even when the young man was set
free without trial the incident did no,
