C. FORSYTHE Thorndson was born in Wisconsin, and a common school education and had an uneventful life until he was drafted and sent to amp Dodge. He sailed for Francé\ May 1, 1918, and was on the firing line in July, where | he served in the Unserling sector: for | sixty days and night without relief. | After the Unserling sector, he | went to the Argonne. The following j statement of the continusion which developed a basis’ for a later murder are given in a report of his case by .Dr. John E. Engstad, who examined him after he had been at the peni- tentiary for some time: Was Transferred “After this he was transferred to the troops, taking part in the heroic battle of the Argonne Where he was under constant, fire day and night with little water and no food for six days and nights, At about the fifth day he sustained’ a profound shock which at that time caused a preak- down in’ his whole system: After a charge, where they had driven the enemy back a considerable distance they were ordered to dig trenches and while at work a shell exploded a short distance from him with @ fearful report. A splinter of this shell hit the top of the head, or the skull oi his comrade, ony a yard distant, * * ° “From this moment, as he states, manity of all war, killing of fellow human beings, whereby a temporary settlement might be made, of prob- lems a community could have settled peatefully and satisfactory to all. “Said Thorndson’s brain cells were, to a certain extent, injured in the battle. Then superimposed on this danger was the training of the offi- cers to kill, kill, /the call of the primeval to slay his opponent. This produced a typical case of war neuro- sis, with a distinct loss of the in- hibiting impulses that guide every normal man’s actions. “Mr. Thorndson has suffered a dis- tinct loss of said inhibiting impul- ses to his nervous system, or in plain word, he is subject to impulsive in- sanity, as the margin between san- ity in his case is very narrow; and, under stress and mental excitement due to the war neurosis, when the image of the scull of the fallen sol- dier appears before his visual con- sciousness, his inner animal self prompts him to take a club and kill, kill.” In concluding, Dr. Engstad, was of the opinion that the man should be parolled from the penitentiary and immediately placed in a government psychopathic institute, with a possi-| bility that he might be so restored; that he could serve in the army a: mechanic. He does not believe it My secret? Just this: Be loving and kind and considerate and devoted to your husband. Most husbands will meet you half way. “Girls of today make as good wives as girls of the past. Modern dress is all right. “But sometimes I fear too much worldliness and freedom are having a malign effect on womanhood and I hopé soon to,see the pendulum swing back to the days of crinoline.” Mrs, Sanders was first married at 15 to Robert H. Garrison, 27, Con- federate veteran. That was in 1865. Four year later he died. A year later the widow, now a girl of 20, married A. B. Moorchouse,- 28,| who also had fought in the Confede- rate forces. She became the mother of 10 children, After 12 years of married life Moorehouse died of typhoid fever. A year later, at 38, she married William Newzld, German farmer,-ten years her junior. Newald died. of pneumonia a year later. Having been a widow one year, she |} married E, F. Hartwell, a planter, {22 years younger than she. She lived happily with Hartwell 18 years. Two children were born.
