Donald Names His
New Kitten
Easter"

Easter is celebrated by young
sters all over the country in q
variety of ways which range
from searching for the Elusive
bunny which lays the Easter
eggs, to eating all the candy
available.
But neither of these extremes
were adopted by young Donald
Gould, two and one half year
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Roscoe
Gould Of Imperial. For to DON
aid the word Caster is al
ways going to mean his kitten.
And it happened in this
fashion: Donald was presented
with q nice, new kitten on Sun
day. All the grownups were
talking about Easter-and there
was the new kitten. Therefore
Donald promptly named the kit
ten "Easter.' And no argu-
nents from his mother could
change his mind, or the result
ing name, which certainly shows
the logical trend of Dcnald's
youthful mind.
So Donald is now the owner
of three kittens, Easter be-
ing added to Butter and
"Jelly,' the two wee cats pre-
viously presented and christen-
ed by their owner.

Annie Mattson, G5, who has lived in
the same house in Fort Bragg, Men
docino county, rs long as any one
can remember, was taken ito Gus
tody yesterday after her son John,
aged "a, had been found dying in
a field near the house.
A tiny bottle which had contain.
ed poison was found in his coat.

on which the single word "good
bye' had been whitfield, indicating
apparent suicide.
Mrs. Mattson, ffail and worn, q
type of the toiling woman found
on isolated farms, sat in her cell to-
day and said nothing.
Mrs. Mattson's arrest came as
the climax of long years of violence
and suspicion in her family. Twen-
ty years ago her husband met q vio-
lent death. -Four years ago another
son, Walter, was found dead with q
bullet in his back.
y In both these instances Mrs. Matt
son was suspected but not prosecut-
ed.
Yesterday, however, neighbors
/ heard sounds of violent quarrel
shortly. after breakfast. John was
seen to staggcr from the Kitchen
and wander into the fields When he
was found he WIS unable to talk
and died while DIR. Arper Peddicord
was examining him. The man s
stomach was removed and sent to
San Francisco today for analysis.
While the result of the analysis
IS be,ag awaited, Deputy Sheriff w.
RI. Reis and Coroner Robert Weller
were piecing together evidence to
determine whether some form of in
sanity might have driven the aged
woman to take the lives of her hus-
band and two Of her offspring.
