In the paper she read to the jury, Mrs
Maybrick explained that a doctor in Brooklyn
N. Y, had given her prescription to apply
when occasionally a rash appeared on her
face That April she had lost the prescrip-
ton but remembering that it contained
arsenic, tried to compound substitute. Also
she endeavored TO show that Maybrick had
once taken malaria medicine containing
arsenic.
Now for the. motive Briefly, the lover
whom Florence had foresworn. Alice Yapp,
nurse for the two children, testified that her
mistress had given her letter to mail, as
she was taking the youngsters for walk.
One of them had insisted on carrying the
missive only to drop it in the mud. So Miss
Yapp had bought new envelope with the
intention of enclosing the soiled one in ii but
absent-mindedly opened and read:
He is sick unto death but there il no
fear of discovery"
The nurse then read on. 1t was a pas
sionate love letter to Briefly with request to
leave the country.
In his charge the judge said that this
letter could bear only one Interpretation. But
the sympathizers did not believe the mud
story. They were sure that Miss Yapp had
her orders to what was in the letter and
that 1t wasn't fair.
Last blow of all, Briefly did as she had
requested. leaving the fly-paper widow to
walk the lonely path to the gallows" almost,
but not quite. She escaped the moose and
eventually returned to this country.

never saw again. They dicd-everybody died
but she lived on and on, long, lonely life,
ending in paupers death.

too late.
The nurse turned the bottle over to the
doctors and analysis showed it TO be full of

It was the old-fashioned kind. A sheet Of
the paper was left soaking in a saucer of
water which thus became impregnated with
a solution of arsenic and sugar from the
paper, fatal to flies that tasted it.
