whoee hands her fate rested her side
of the case. She was plainly dressed
and her eyes were red from much cry
ing. It was a pathetic picture she
presented as she sat there end told her
story. She was on the witness stand
only five minutes, but they were all
spent to talking. Mre. Creech's state
ment began with her version of how
the fight started.
"Dolly came to me." she said, "and
told me that Florence (referring to her
sister, Mrs. Booth) bad said I had been
talking about her. 1 deinled this and
Dolly said don't accuse my sister of
lying. About that time Florence came
up. She repeated her charge that I
had been talking about Dolly. I said
that 1 hadn't and Florence slapped
me. I clapped back. Dolly then pushed
Florence away and caught me by the
tbroat. She Is larger and heavier than
I am and 1 went down. Dolly was
standing over me with one hand a-
ronnd my throat and bolding aloft a
slat she had plckedup while I was en
gaged with Florence, when I reached

knife that I used In my work and used
it. I begged Dolly to let me' up. She
wouldn’t. As sure as there are angels

chant or the business man, If they
want to give a wedding present. This
wilt be no mock wedding. It will have

John Barlow, a witness for the de-
fendent, swore that he had a conver
sation with Dolly Waldrup on the day
of the homicide and said she told him
that Sarah Creech had been talking
about her and said that she added; “I
am going to whip her today or die
trying."
Two or three witnesses who said
they saw the beginning of the fight
declared that Mrs. Florence Booth, a
handsome divorcee, struck the first
blow and that then both Dolly Waldrup
and Mrs. Booth jumped on Mrs.
Creech. These witnesses said they saw
