It was overlooked in the preliminary search. which was not very thorough. The knife is 1ew, with a blade about seven inches long and the keen instru- ment could easily be driven through a man's heart. It is no toy, but the real tyne that finds favor with the Black Hand variety of criminals. The finding of the knife adds a still more serious asnect to Lee's case. Tt is not of the kind that is carried around for the ordinary purnoses of life and the prisonar did not make it real clear why he was so armed. e does not look like a man who would enrage in such work and consequently the develon- ments in the case have been all the more surprising.
