that investigation Hoerger denied he
mad given them to Faiman.
The defense late today produced a
surprise witness in Miss Mabel A.
Mechanism, ,of Manhattan, ILL.,, one
of the nurses who attended Billy Nc
Clintock in his last illness.
Through her testimony two of the
chief accusations in the states cir
cumstantial case against Shepherd
were attacked.
Before the illness had been dag
nosed as typhoid fever, Billy told
her that he believed he had typhoid,
the nurse testified. and it was she
who insisted Miss Isabelle Pope,
Billy's fancee. be restrained from Wis
iting the sick room.
The prosecution has said that Shep-
herds telling others that the youth
said prior to a diagnosis he believed
he had typhoid was an indirect con-
fession' originated in a guilty con-
science.
Barring Miss Pope from the room
where Billy lay i'll was described as
a step in the antagonizing the Shep-
herds developed towards the young
woman after they found out she was
affianced to their foster son upon
whom they were dependent for a live
lihood. Miss McClanahan talked
with Billy upon her arrival eight
days before his death.
Billy said to me What do you
think is the matter with me?' and
said., You will be all right in a few
days and he said, Well, think
have typhoid" she testified. He re-
peated the statement the next day,
she added. The prosecutor, Robert E.
Grove. was not able to cause her to
change her testimony on cross-exam-
nation.
Miss Luella Ruhell. formerly bust
ness manager at Faiman's school, tes-
titled that she had examined the
schools letter files infinitely and never
had seen letter Shepherd is alleged

Dear Martha Lee: I have been mar
ried more than three years and have a
daughter is months old. The biggest part
OF my married life have lived with my
husbands mother and stepfather. l have
had a home twice. but both times my
husband has given up trying TO keep up a
house. Although l realize he is not the
strongest man in the world l would be
satisfied to have half as much as l have
bad. He does not have steady work, but
| believe In saving for rainy day. He
likes the baby but that is as far as 1t
goes
When I lost my home I was 10. not old
enough TO realize what Il meant. But my
in-law trouble is more than 1 can bear.
II has got me in a nervous condition. Ny
husband acts cold toward me. Please adj
wise me what to do. He is 81.
ISABELLA.
1t is possible you could approach
your husband through your child.
You might persuade him Il would
be better for her IL you had your
own home. without the quarreling
to which I suppose you refer when
you say 'in-law trouble"
