But as I thought he didn’t have any official capacity in the case I didn't pay much attention to the questioning. At the time I was sick with sor- row, so 1 didn’t care what answers I gave him. Just Wants to Be Falr Oh, what ditference does it make? Everyone should know that I am sincere in my testimony. I want to be fair. Senator Simpson said that the Stevens clan had arranged with Mr. | Parker for the grilling he gave me in trying to fix the blame for the crime on my father. I can’t say that I wasn’t disturbed on the stand. T s | resented the fact that they tried to - | question my sincerity., But when they showed me my mother's picture— then the tragedy came back to me with all its horror. because Senator Simpson mentioned my mother several times this morn- ing in his opening speech. And every time her name flashed through his speech a lump came into my throat. Then when Officer Edward Garrigan | testified about finding the bodies, all llhc horrible memories of that day came back to me that day four years |ago when I learned that my mother {and the man she loved had been | stain. On the stand I described how on ‘lhat last evening my Mmother took a | clipping over to Dr. Hall's study. It | was a statement by Dr. Percy Stick- ney Grant, Episcopal minister in | New York, that he belleved divorce | was justified. That clipping was | significant to me.

This served to dam- age Willlie's alibi considerably, it seemed to me. ‘Well, now that the jury is picked, the trial is actually under way. I do hope that it will not be a long, drawn-out affair. % On the whole T am pleased with the jury as it is now composed. To me, the selection was one of the most important phases of the Herrin'.-;wNew Sheriff trial—so much depends on the men | selected, their personal beliefs, their ! reactions to certain types of testi- | mony. Considers Jury Intelligent | Everyone of the jurors seems to | be intelligent and not the type that wily be influenced one way or the other by brilllant oratory, I think that they will weigh carefully the testimony offered, detect the false | from the true, and then when it's all over, arrive at a just verdict. And | whatever that verdict is, I shall not complain—T feel so confident that these men will see that full justice is done. So often, jurymen are impressed | Ly outward appearances, by wealth | —and by politics. I don't think that | 4 will be the case this time. I hope Some men look for ttrouble.

Honest men will not let their own feelings sway them in making | a decision—they will be guided not | s0 much by their hearts as by their | sense of right and wrong— lhl‘ir‘ sense of justice. This is all T ask— | tall T can ask. I wonder how far some of the jurors will be unconsciously In- | | fluenced by the fact that my mother | jand Dr. Hall were engaged in an unconventional love affair. Perhaps smnc of them will, even though I was a little prepared, however, | hard for them to understand the whys and wherefores of that affalir. Of course, I understand it and I sympathized with both of them, my mother and Dr. Hall. Mother Starved For Love My mother was a good woman, but she starved for love romance, and she didn’t really love my father. They were so different. They didn't have a thing in com- mon. Dr. Hall was the same way. He didn’t love his wife. He wasn't her kind. But my mother and Dr. Hall —they seemed made for each other and they were so happy together. Some people say it was wrong for them to love? Who knows? Only God can decide that. But they were murdered in cold ub|oold! ‘That is the greatest crime— | to kill. The jury cannot forget that. Whether the state would want a jury like that, with the danger of disagreement, I don’t know. Per- haps that is why Senator Simpson studied everyone so intently today. No women have been drawn for this jury and to tell the truth, I don’t care. Not that I'm opposed to women serving, but I really den't think it makes a particle of differ- | ence—at least not in this case. I ask is justice—and a jury com- posed entirely of men should be ful- ly capable of determining how the ends of justice may best be served. Senator Simpson didn't spare any- one's feelings when he outlined his case to the jury. He just waded right in without giving any quarter. He snapped out his accusations in a precise, clean-cut manner. He bobbed about and shook his finger and thundered that he was going to prove the defendants guilty of mur- | der and he certainly talked like he meant it. He is & nervous, Intense little man, full of fire and vigor. It seems as it he is on steel springs. Like's Simpson's Energy His speech was a work of art, it |seemed to me. |logical, and little by little he built up his case so that it didn't seem to have a loophole in it. Of course, the defense will have |all sorts of answers, and by the time the trial {s well under way I suppose everything will be all mud- dle! to most people. Senator Simpson had a lot to say too about what a terrible mess the authorities made of the first inves- tigation. I certainly agree with him there. Whether it was deliberate or not, I can’t say. I hate to believe bad things about anybody until they are proved. Rut if that first inves- tigation wasn't deliberately squelch- ed, then it certalnly was carelessly done. Why they didn’t even know my mother's throat was cut until after the body had been exhumed! And a lot of other queer things happened ‘M?l;es Fat i’eople Slim New York Physician Perfocts Simple and Easy Method of Reducing Welght Dr. R. Newman, a licensed prac- ticing physician, of 286 Fifth Ave- nue, New York, announces that he has perfected a treatment which has quickly rid fat people of excess weight. What is more remarkable is the Doctor’s statement that he has successfully treated thousands of patients for fat reduction without unnecessary change of diet or bur- densome exercise. He ‘also says that fat people who suffer from chronic rheumatism, gout, asthma and high blood pressure obtain great | relief from the reduction of their | superfluous flesh. Realizing that this sounds almost too good to be true, the Doctor has offered to send with- out charge, to anyone who will write | him, a free trial treatment to prove | his claims, as well os his “Pay-when- reduced” plan.

Feels Strange On Witness Stand What a queer sort of feeling I had when I went on the stand. I wasn't exactly nervous. There was no reason why I should be nervous. But anyway it was strange, being out there before all those people, everybody looking at me. just feel hundreds of eyes boring into me, trying to see right inside me. And I could feel all of those people thinking about me—different people thinking different things, and some of them wondering what 1 was really like in my heart. There was a peculiar little tug at my heart when my name was call- ed. tightly and set my mind. be cool, I told myself. I walked calmly to the witness stand. But |still T didn’t see things very clearly. I must lof a haze. And always there was that little drum-beat in my mind: “Keep cool, keep cool.” But never for a moment was I frightened. I think T walked just like T always do, down the hazy lit- tle aisle between tho spectators. Maybe there was just a little trem- ble in my volce when T took the loath. T never had been at a regu- {lar trial before, With so much If Mrs. Hall and her two broth- | they | will point the way to those who did | | trial will lead to the .nd of the mys- | 1 could | But I just clenched my hands| Everything seemed to be in a sort | | fore when I testified, at the first in- vestigation and at the last grand | jury session it was more informal. But still I felt better than I did at that first grand jury hearing. I didn't feel so much that sting of hostility T felt during the first in- vestigation. I rather felt that many of the people in the courtroom now are in sympathy with me. I don’t see why they shouldn't be. I have- n't done anything to anybody, but oh, how I have suffered these last four years. No one can ever know how much! Chilly Stares From Stevens Clan Of course, I could -2l cold stares from the Stevens clan. I don't hold that against them. I can under- stand why they should feel bitter towar me, I don't feel bitter to- ward them. I'm just neutral. I they had anything to do with |the death of my mother and Dr. ITall, T hope they will get thelr just | punishment. If they didn't I hope |they will go free. That's just the way I would feel toward anybody being tried for a crime. Honestly in my heart I don’t feel because they are on trial for the murder of my own dear mother. Nothing that can be done now can | bring her dear self back to life. There is no hate in my heart. I don’t cry for revenge. I just want to see simple justice done, that's all, and T wish for the end of these mis- erable, constant reminders of the | tragedy that has caused so much suffering to so many people. But I could just feel them drill- ing me through with their eves, those accused ones. I suppose they hate my mother, even in her death, and maybe they have transferred |some of that hate to me. Story Burned Into Her Heart | Senator Simpson asked me a lot lof questions, and I am so glad I was able to answer them all so quickly. I know the whole story so well. Tt is burned into my heart. Maybe there was a little cateh in my voice sometimes, maybe some- times there was a little tremble. There was a tear now and then, but |1 wiped it away quickly, and T hope nobody saw, Oh well, suppose they it and embody it in the garments they design. any differently toward those people | have the right to cry a little. There I was, before all those people, tell- ing so many intimate things about |my mother and Dr. Hall. Oh, how it all came back to me. I am not ashamed if a little tear ran down my cheek, Then when he asked about moth- er and Dr. Hall. They loved each other dearly, and they were 80 happy in their love. I knew they lovel each other, and I was happy for them, because that was the greatest joy they had, poor mother and dear Dr. Hall. I could just feel Mrs. Hall steel her heart when Senator Simpson was asking me about them. T felt Yeally sorry for her then. She is such a proud woman, and it must have hurt to think her husband was really and truly in love with some- one else. ‘When it was over I was happy for a while, because I was through for the time being. Now perhaps in a few days it will all be over, and then I can try to forget. There won’t be much more then to remind me. I'll try so hard to forget. T wonder if 1 can? Is it burned too |deep in my heart to erase it even vith time? I hope and pray—. All T want is to forget.

SCOVIL G0, T0 INCREASE SHARES Stock Capitalization Raises Wil Be $4,425,000 Waterbury, Nov. 5 (#—The Sco- vill Manufacturing Company of this city plans an' increase of $4,425,000 in capital stock, which will be issued as a stock dividend and a reduc- tiop in the par value of the capital stock from $100 to $25 by a corres- ponding multiplication in the num- | ber of shares.
