8 THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. ARGUf YIN’ l r i-V n JUSTICE Dr. McNaughton's Attorney Is Retained to Defend Divorced Wife Who Killed Couple. MILLEN. Aug. 23.—Following th« funeral of her daughter, Mrs. Florence Boyer Godbee, the second victim <*f the shooting of last Monday, who was buried Friday by the side of her late husband, W. S. Godbee, In Waynes boro, Mrs. G. W. Boyer, of Williams port, Pa., made her first public state ment concerning the dual tragelv since her arrival from Pennsylvania. Mrs. Godbee was the only daughter and had been the Idol of the Penn sylvania home. Nothing had been spared to give her every advantage. In speaking of the tragedy Mrs. Boy er said: "Florence so often wrote me that she was aappy and contented. Aftv>r her marriage I asked her if she real ized how far away she would bo from mother. She said she did, but that she loved Judge Godbee and would be cared for and protected. We all loved him, and he was so careful to assure me time and again that Florence would be well provided for. I did not want her to come so far away, but when I thought over it I decided not to Interpose where her happiness was concerned. "Now it's all over. My grief ‘s more than I can bear and my daugh ter's place in my heart will never be filled. Wants justice Done. "As to the divorced wife, I hope justice will be done. My daughter had never done her any harm, and how she will ever have any peace again I can not c e. "My daughter had never been South before, but she often wrote mo of things down here and said it was a great place and the people were so good and kind. She said she would always want to livo in the South And now that she is dead, I want h^r to sleep forever among the people she had learned to love so well and among whom she was contented and happy.” Judge Godbee’s snfe has been opened and his effects have been gone over. All his private papers have been left in charge of W. 3. Wallace, at the request of all Interested par ties. He and the Rev. E. E. Ron u Judge Godbee’s pastor, read thepu Practically all his real estate holding* were in the name of his daughter, Miss Maggie Godbee, who lives In I Augusta. He had one policy of insu r - ance for $1,000 payable to his slain wife. No Will Contest Likely. It is not probable that there will be litigation concer. ing the division of his property. It Is well worth $30.- 000, and practically all goes to his daughter Maggie. Hla will was made in 1910, and as he married since then, the Georgia laws make this will void However, as all his holdings were in the name of his daughter Maggie, by direct deed, there is little over which to contest the will. None of these deeds were on record, and he heid power of attorney from his daughter. In the last few years several suits had been started to force him to re veal the legal status of his property, but he either settled or defended them successfully. The deeds were placed on record and the will probated In common form before Judge F. G. Rabb, Or dinary of Jenkins County. t _ T EVE DF TRIAL Man Accused of White Slavery Declares He Can Not Deny Girls’ Charges. — -wO Wv k NNN\\ 'A PUT RALLY Grant Park Youngsters in Lead When Rain Causes Postpone ment of Contests.

SAN FRANCISCO, Apg. 23.—E Drew Caminetti, son of a wealthy and prominent family, whose father is politically powerful, to-day admitted that he was near a nervous break down over the approach of his trial, which begins Tuesday before Federal Judge Van Fleet. Following the con viction of Maury I. Diggs, former State architect, on a charge of being a white slaver, Caminetti must face the same charge and hear the same evi dence against him that convicted Diggs. In an interview to-day he said: "I do not attempt to condone a breach of Federal law, but I am not a white slaver, and I will not plead guilty to the charge against me.” Caminetti will not deny the truth of any statement that Lola Norris makes on the witness stand. "When Man’s Sin Comes Home.” "God knows,” he said, "that it is going to be hard for me and for Diggs, but infinitely worse for the two women in the case. I know from my experience before the trial. "That is where a man’s sin co^mes home to him. It Is hard enough ^for all of us, but doubly hard for Lola Norris. As for Marsha Warrington, I feel, perhaps, less sympathy, for she used reprisal. Anything that Lola may say on the witness stand will have no denial from me.” Not Reconciled With Wife. Speaking of the rumor that he was to plead guilty, Caminetti said: "I am not guilty of any intent or action under the white slave law. I do not condone my offense, but surely it is only natural to say that this is an offei.se that is being com mitted by thousands every day and for which there is no impeachment or even blame. "I am not afraid to face trial. I have sinned, but I have not sinned as this Mann act would make it ap pear. I can only hope that prejudice will be stricken from the courtroom when I am put on trial.” There has been no reconciliation between Caminetti and his wife.
