DAUGHTER OF OFFICE WIFE WILL TESTIFY
TN DEFENSE OF MOTHER AT MURDER TRIAL

ST. JOSEPH, Mich, Dec. 10.
Gloria Dull, Is, expects to take
The stand today in defense Of her
mother, Fern Patricia Dull, "office
wife," charged with killing her
common-law husband.
What Gloria can say that will
sway the jury is something no one
can conjecture. But George B.
Gould, defense counsel, says she
will be an important witness in
the trial for the murder Of VIII
liam Holbrook.
Another witness Gould and H.
T. Dewhirst plan to call is Mrs.
Helen Caldwell, former Berrien
county Stenographer. She was
Mrs. Dull's confidante for several
years. The attorneys say Mrs.
Caldwell can tell much Of the life
Mrs. Dull spent with Holbrook,
whose secretary and "office wife"
Mrs. Dull was.
Mrs. Caldwell has sat at the
counsel table throughout the trial
before Judge Mark D. Taylor.
Gould and DewhirSt were unde-
cided today, but it was believed
they might put another pSychia-
trist on the stand to bolster Mrs.
Dull's defense-that she shot Hol-
brook in self-defenSe, that she
couldn't tell right from wrong at
the moment, and that she didn't
know what she was doing.
