A small periodical publication, “Richard's Magazine,” edited and | published by Young Richard Loeb | in early boyhood was cited by Mr. Crowe as showing “An advanced intellectual development for a boy | of his age, and the humanitarian en- vironment of his home.” “And yet,” he went on, “when it | comes time to save the necks of these criminals, the counsel for the defense tells your honor that the | parents, the environment of the | youth, ~are responsible for their | fancied mental debility, { “Loeb, this poor little rich was brought up in a gilded cage, | without chance to use his wings.
