No one will ever know what

Dead for 20 months. Dead since Jan.
%, 1913, when his lovely bride of four
months was murdered in Lower ID of
Southern Pacific sleeping car.
What the routine Navy report failed
10 take into account was the unCcni-
able fact that sometimes the dead
don't die - not for a long time.
From a physical standpoint the
young naval officer was fully alive on
the morning of Sept. %. 1t was in
side him that he was dead. Sturdy,
compact and only 25 years old, he
was a perfect specimen of the young
wartime naval flier. And the fatal
crash came only week before he was

lie was reading a magazine aboard a
train Southbound from Portland, Ore.
The night outside was cold and bright
with stars. AS the train came TO a
stop at Klamath Falls, Ore, someone
tapped him on the shoulder.
A uniformed state patrolman and
special agent for the railroad told
him his 21-year-old bride, the former
Martha Virginia Crimson, of Norfolk
Va, was dead, that her throat had
been slashed by an unknown attackcr
early that morning on the second
section of the same train.
Looks of disbelief, bewilderment,
tragic realization ran across his face.
1t was only a few hours earlier that
the ensign and his wife had left
Seattle. He had received orders to
move to a station on the southern
Pacific coast. But all the trains were
packed and he had finally taken
chair in the first section. Mrs. James
found a place on the second and at
the last minute fate found her berth

Vitamins are in it in abun-
