That unexplainable something
which unites and holds us to those
we love is being exemplified in the
case of Dorothy Ellington.
Dorothy killed her mother SO she
would be free to lead n life of 'jazz''
and hllarity her father and brother
spurned her.
She should hang!' the brother
said as he and his father turned
their backs IN Dorothy at the coro-
ner's inquest.
But blood runs thicker than water
and Dorothy has been reunited with
her father and brother all because
the mother spirit returned to the
dreams of her IN. and pleaded for
kindness for the daughter who had
killed her
The reconciliation Of Dorothy with
her father and brother was one Of
the most dramatic in police annals.
Her brother. Earl. six-foot Viking,
picked Dorothy up In his arms and
rocked her as a baby. while father,

AT first I hated her." Earl said,
but mother came to me like a Wis

and I will do everything possible for
her Defense"
Though the reconciliation with her
father and brother has somewhat
dampened her spirit. Dorothy like

public attention that is hers.
Appetite Is Keen
She is up early In the morning to
prepare her tawny hair and to
rouge her heavy lips. Her appetite
Is keen and she asks for ham and
eggs, toast and coffee.
Dorothy smiles at PHOTOGRAPHERS,
even though they ask her to look
serious.
She pens a poem for the newspa.

original that she wrote some of the
lines from memory.
Dorothy talks generously of life.
Her philosophy is II want to have a

Only the reconciliation with her
