LEARNED TO TEACH

She had left home, and by hard
work had achieved two years al
the State Teachers College at East
Radford. Then she had received
her teachers certificate and come
back to Pound to teach in the
little school where she had once
been a pupil.
On this Saturday night she had
gone down to the county seat.
Wise, some 10 miles away, to visit
friends. There she met a boy
friend who offered to drive her
home.
But instead of going directly
home they drove to the Ritz Cafe,
a little mountain road house.
where Edith had a soft drink and
ate some potato chips.
FATHER IN RAGE
Then close to midnight she
started for home. Arrived there,
she found her father in a rage
a drunken rage, she said, and this
testimony was supported by her
mother and her little sister, Mary
Catherine.
The burly father threatened to
whip her for disobeying his orders
and staying out late, she said. He
seized her by the hair and
started beating her, according to
her story. She fought him off. He
came at her with a butcher
knife. They grappled and fell to
the floor.
Her shoe came off. She picked
it UP and struck him over the
head several times.
FALL is RELATED
Several hours later, according
to Edith, he went to the back
porch to get a drink of water
On the porch he fell, striking his
head against a heavy old fash
toned butchers block.
The little sister was sent out to
get a doctor, but when he arrived
Trigg Maxwell was dead.
She and her mother were both
indicted for murder and in No
vember she went on trial before a
jury of IL mountain men. Presid-
ing was an aged jurist, Judge H.
A. W. Skeen.
Edith took the stand and re.
lated the story of the fight. Her
mother and sister gave similar
testimony. The States case was
purely circumstantial.
Yet the jury. after hearing the
evidence, found her guilty after
less than an hours elaboration
and fixed punishment at IS years

WINDSOR VICTIM.
OF GANG WAR;
FRIENDS CHARGE
Old Guard Is Accused
Of Attacks on Duke
BY NEWELL ROGERS

MOON, Sept. 9 Q.N.sJ.
Charges that a gang war" is be.
ing waged by old guard court and
social circles against the Duke
and Duchess Of Windsor burst
upon England today.
AS proof Of its contentious, the
privately circulated magazine
"The Week" alleged that the old
guard was responsible for spread
ing the recent story that former
King Edward planned to visit
Chancellor Hitler Of Germany.
DISCREDIT DUKE
The object, the magazine de-
clared, was to discredit the Duke
with many of his followers in
England and prevent his eventual
return to this country.
ITO attribute the Hitler-Wind-
sor meeting rumors to the mag
nation Of irresponsible news
paper men is absolutely incor-
rect.
whether the Duke will or
will not visit Der Fuehrer is
really of less Importance than
the gang war now being carried
on between pro-Windsor and
anti-Windsor factions even in
highest court circles.
1.-THE source of the report that
the Duke and Duchess Of Wind
sor will see Hitler was that Sec
ton of the old guard Of court
and social circles who are deter
mined to destroy all of the
Dukes influence in this country.
1.-THE reason for wanting this
apparently is the knowledge that
powerful influences, including
the persistent advocacy of at
least one member of the royal
family, is being brought to bear
to make it possible for the Duke,
if not the Duchess, to enter and
leave his former kingdom as
freely as does anyone who
spends most of his life on the
E Continent.
"Foreseeing complications in
plenty should this come about,
shock troops of the old guard
are working overtime and have
been churning out rumors in the
hope that these, coupled with
KIN o Wedge Of the Duchess
friendship for Ambassador Joa-
chin Won Ribbentrop and other
high Nazi officials, will turn
widespread anti-Nazi feelings in
England against the Duke"
"SNUB" EXPLAINED
Meanwhile, in an obvious at
tempt to quench the gossip that
followed failure of the Duke and
Duchess of Kent to visit the Wind
sors at Wasserleonburg, the Lon
doner's Diary of the Evening
Standard today explained the in
cident as a misunderstanding in
stead of snub.
The Kents, according to the
Standard, thought the Windsors
would not leave WasSerleonburg
for Hungary until September 10
and arranged to visit them on
September 6. The WindsorS, how
ever, already had made plans to
depart that day.

One of the chief points he in

Trigg Maxwell was on the move.
