Campbell, the wealthy Wisconsin lumberman now on trial in Judge Winde’s court for the murder of Dr. Benjamin F. Harris, was George South, a lifelong friend and near neighbor of the defendant. Despite vigorous objectlons made by the state’s attorney the witness was per- mitted to testify regarding the general reputation for chastity of the mur- dered man, the court first requiring the defense to show that this reputa- tlon had been communicated to the defendant and so might be a factor in producing the insanity which it is clalmed caused the murder.
