Tills conclusion .bad nothing to do with any Appeal whatever to my reason. ; This U a synopsis of her case: She married reter Itlngland. a man twenty. years older than, herself, a stingy, ; *?-v ?*? of the olden type. , Rlngland, never in good health, at lost } gradually eauk aw?v anj died. he died oif no ope kucw, for lie was too mean to have a doctor. Ho was buried, and his wife pmceodod to tuko possession of his eetato. One day Ernest A. Parsons received at his club through the mall a note signed Julia Itlnghuul, of whom he had never heard. In it she admitted that she loved him, hut would not permit him to be near her so long as her husbann uved. The note ended with the single worn ?u'alt " It happened that",,* another Parsons in the club, Edwnni Parsous. The note had 1km? 11 addresset, ^ I E. A. Parsons and had fallen Into tlieO wi-ong hands. The Parsons who re eelved It talked about It. Its existence readied tlie ears of Peter Klugland's relatives, ami tliey accused the widow . 1 of having, jH>lsoned her husband. The lui/li- M-.ivi nvlllllllixl !"> i? mill ??tin_ I ' ' " I lysscd and arsenic found In sufficient quantity to kill several men. The note and the arsenic were the main iwjlnts on which the prosecuting attorney secured a conviction. i My proving Mrs. Rlnghind's innocence depended solely upon one point ?her husband must have taken ,gr- j senfc? >^tl|out the knowledge of tinjj 4 one else. " The-'attorney for the defense^! had taken this j>osltlon, but could nd^L duce no uroof that Rlnglnnd bad evauM| bpnorbjt .U H t u'li^Ticf .iTnvUlC 1Q bis life. J Ho had Investigated every drug store*k In the suburban town In which Rlngland had lived, but not one had ever , sold the drug to the deceased. One day n possible solution to the problem occurred to me. IUngland was so stingy that he might have I nought 1 the drug wholesale. The theory was certainly farfetched, but I detenu 1 nod to Investigate the wholesale druggists thoroughly. There were tlve of them | lu y?o city. I went to all of them and nskod If they had laid any account with I'eter Ulngland. Not one of tliem had evor had such an account on its books. Besides, they would uot have I sold tho goods to any one not In ?> drug business ?crtuinly not at the ] wliolesalu price. Since 1 had mode up my mind that provlug Itluglaiid's pur- | chase of tho drug himself was the only i possible way of establishing his wid- ! ow"s innocence, I determined to push further in mv investigations. Was 11 J not possible that itlngluud bad bad the : druse veut to him under an useuiueJ , name? I roquested every wholesale drug store in tlie city to uiake up a statement of all tho arsenic it bad sold 1 In the town whore Itluglund bad lived within two yours prior to bis deatb. Tliuro woro n number of qualities of ursaulc on one of tiio statement* that bad bowi billed to tlie Itldgcwood pharmacy. The items arrested my attention, for tho articles were all arsenic. I Inquired for tlie iUdgewood pharmacy and was told ttin^ ,P JUri I oxlst and nover liad J^ted. Then I [ knew I tiod found hat I bad beeu I hunting for. ^ I Still had 'jtf pro** That | Itlnglund tiad J^etrod tbe goods.

The dates of shipment and tho reooipts aooerded exactly. Armed with this evidence, tho lawyer who lmd defended Mrs. Rlngland In court, working with mo, secured a pardon for her, tho only means available of doing 1mm- Justice." or, rather, of getting her out of prison.
