It was written by Doctor Dreher The Chronicle does not necessarily j on the eve of his' execution arid was entrusted to a New Orleans States re porter with the request that it be giv en to the Associate Press. “As I sit here in sad and lonely death cell tonight with a aching heart 1 want to write my last message to the living people of this world who know something of this tragedy,” the message said. I “I want these words to be published I to the world. “I wish they could be given the same prominence in the press and over the radio as our trial was given.

I had been the Leboeufs family physician for 20 years, and Jim Leb^uf was my best friend until that lying anony mous letter came to light. “I had always prized the friendship of the Leboeufs. • “A kindhearted or more sympathetic woman never lived than Mrs. Leboeuf. “It Ls a bitter cup we have to drink.

Also place some up each nostril and snuff well back. This quickly opens the air passages. At bedtime, rub Vicks vigorously over throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel. Most coids yield over night to Vicks two-fold action: Aetta Waytat the-body, are inhaled direct to the inflamed air passages, loosening the phlegm and easing the difficult breathing. (2) At the same time, Vicks acts through the skin like a poultice, ’’drawing out” tightness and soreness, and thus helping the vapors to break up the congestion. Mothers especially appreciate this simple external treatment because it cannot up set children’s delicate stomachs, as too much ’’dosing” is so apt to do.
