Senator Simpson indicated today
he will probably ask DR.. Marten 70:

house, as he ran after the wife,
with whom he had lived in quiet
happiness 10 years.
Mrs. Leapley succeeded in reach
ing the home Of some coiorsd
peoples where she Was taken care
of. while I1eighbofs ran to the aid
of the Cfazed husband who was
fusely from the gaping wound IN
his throat. He was rushed ia
Casualty Hospital in 4 commander
ed automobile and his wife went
to the same institution in another
machine.
Operation Performed
Doctors Joseph Rogers. and A.
Magruder Macdonald, performed an
emergency operation in an attempt
to save Leapley's fast ebbing life.
They inserted a tube In his wind
pipe and sewed it in place.
At the hospital today It was
said If the tube can be kept open
the man might live.
The wife did not remain at the
hospital after her wounds, described
at the hospital as slight, were
dressed. She took cab and went
to the home of her sister, and the
latter returned to the Leapley farm
with her.
The sister today said Mrs. Leap
ley could not account for her hus-
bands sudden attack. He had
helped his wife get dinner, and
aftef eating hearty meal went
to shave.
He had finished shaving and re-
turned to the Kitchen. where Mrs.
Leapley was washing the dishes.
They spoke some ordinary greet
ings, and the wife went on with
her work without noticing anything
strange about her husband.
Attacks without Warning
Without warning, according to
the story Mrs. Leapley told at the
hospital and later told her sister,
Leapley flashed a fazor~ he lad
secreted about his person. Mrs.
Leapley, a large, well-built woman,
slightly younger than her husband.
threw UP her arms to defend her.
self and only succeeded in saving
her own life by her quiekness.
The only reason either the wife
or 1ieighbors can give for the at.
tack is that Leapley might have
been affected by the recent heat
spell and over work. He had been
working his truck farm virtually
without aid for several weeks after
discharging helper. and his health
has not been of the best for the
past few years.
1t was said that the physician
attending Mrs. 1eapley has advised
against her going to visit her hus-
band fearing not only the affect
on the Injured man, but on her.
She Is ready to go, however, IL
the need should arise, the sister
said.

Identified Mrs. Hall as being at the
murder scene, were omitted.
So were the statements Of Louise
Geist and Barbara Tough.
Senator Simpson said today that
Louise Geist had been requested
to both swear to and sign her
statement. The same procedure
has been followed with some of
the other witnesses.
Senator Simpson made 1t very
clear he would not hesitate to press
perjury charges in the event that
any statements given by witnesses
should prove false.
