The original notes son's*stocking at the inquest, were addressed to Rice and to Willlam A. King. The letter to Mr. King fol- lows: “I alone was here with him. It was either he or I would have to be killed, I would not leave Juanita alone with him. Bhe knows the life I have lived. Trenor can tell what 1 put up with.

The Sccond Letter The following letter was written to Trenor A. Rice: “Dear Son: [orgive me for the suffering this has caused you. 1 am to blame. You are not in any way responsible.
