The attorney angered his client
when he tried to support his insanity
argument by detailing events in the
life of the girl.
Although Miss Ellingson faints
parent are mentioned in court. she
does not protest against being
charged with murder. Any reference.
however, tending to question her
mental balance provokes display of
temper.
The argument between Miss Elling-
son and her attorney as to her sanity
will be transferred to a jury today
for a decision. If she is adjudged
sane. another jury, already picked,
will be called. If she is found insane
the legal proce eedings against her
