Yazoo Negro Dentist
In More Trouble AS
Poisoning Is Found

State Chemist G. W. Hand informed
T. H. Campbell, County Attorney, this
morning that he had discovered strich-
nine poison in the stomach of Annie
Quinn Packer, wife of DR.. L. F. Packer,
local negro dentist, who is confined to
the county Jail charged with the murder
of Neville Sanders, according to The
Yazoo Sentinel.
On the 31st of last month John Under
wood, city detective, noticing blood on
a car near Packers home, investigated
and found negro, Neville Sanders, with
his head crushed, wedged in the rumble
seat of the car. Fresh blood flowing
from the wounds revealed that the crime
had just been committed
Laurence Packer, negro dentist, was
found in the house covered with blood
He confessed to the crime saying that
he had killed the man with an axe be-
cause he held a grduge against him
Later it was reported that this grudge
was occasioned by a blackmail note that
Packer had received.
Prior to this killing Packers mother
had died suddenly. She had property
here and was also insured A few
months later his wife and daughter died
after going riding with him. Reports
were to the effect that they had eaten
canned meat which caused ptomane
poisoning. His wife denied that she had
eaten any canned meat. They were in
sured for $11 500.
Since Sanders, the murdered negro,
was about the size of Packer and since
Packers brother and another negro
were waiting a message from Packer
at his office, it was the general belief
that he intended to burn his car, using
the ten gallons of gasoline that were
found in a can inside the car, leaving
the impression that he himself had burn
ed to death.
Attorneys for the defense requested
that Packer be removed to another Jail
for safe-keeping, but Mr.. Campbell stated
that he thought this unnecessary ex-
pense as he had heard no threat of mob
violence.
The stomach of the child is being ex-
amined now and report is expected on
it within the next two or three days.

How happy union her marriage with the
ex-Kaiser has proved! When the marriage took
place it was much criticized in Germany on the
ground not only of the difference in their
ages but also of this, his second wife, not being
of the high rank Of his first wife, the Empress
Victoria Augusta. 1t seems that even the Ger
mans wished to see their old Emperor fittingly
mated But the Empress Hermine is Of royal
birth, having been the widow of former
prince and the ex-Kaiser says she has made
him very happy in his exile. He has even gone
so far as to say she has saved his reason. She
spoke of him often to me a good man much
maIigned, and confessed him to be model hus-
band and kind stepfather to her children by
her first marriage, as devoted to her and them
as he was to his first wife and children. In
Germany" she said, they were to the last
proud of their Emperor's clean, upright life,
no less than of his high sense of duty to the
Fatherland."
