7 FEEL LIKE I HAD DIED
AND ENTERED NE W WORLD”
—MR8. CRUTCHFIELD
"I feel a. though I had died and had
entered an entirely new world. Every
thing aeemi ao new and strange. And
I feel eo changed, too."
Tit it* remarkable atatement was made
t" u Georgian reporter Tuesday after
noon at the* Brady hospital by Mrs.
Halite Crutchfield, the pretty young
woman who’was shot and seriously
«minded a few weeks ago by her hus
band, J. H, Crutchfield, and whose right
leg was amputated Just above the knee.
As she talked of her present condl-
tlon and of her terrible experience, re
sulting from the act of her husband,
Mrs. Crutchfield, with her pallid cheeks
set iii a frame of pretty golden hair,
sat in a roller chair In the lobby In the
private ward, the second time she has
ix eo able to sit up since she was shot,
•■'lie appeared cheerful and seemed to
I" greatly Improved. She said she
thought she would be able to be moved
in n few days to her home, 300 South
Pryor street
“Crutchfield is Penitent.”
Kite stated that although her hus
band wiik still a prisoner in the Tower,
Im had been very kind to her and had
winced great concern In her condition.
“He seems to he very penitent.” said
Mis. Crutchfield. "I am glad lie has
* tperlonced this change."
When asked If she Intended to pros
ecute her husband, the young woman
replied:
“I am undecided aa yet. I don't know
what I will do. 1 don't bear any malice
toward him and never have."
She stated further that she thought
there was no possibility of her ever
living with Crutchfield again. She said
she didn't think It would M Just to
herself and her children to go back to
hint.
Husband Buys Roller Chair.
Crutchfield, moved by the affliction
he has heaped on his pretty wife, has
ordered a handsome roller chair for her
and the young woman ts expecting this
chair to arrive almost any day. Sho
stilil she would be glad when the chair
arrived, ns It would enable her to get
about better than In the hospital chair.
She stated that she thought It would
be some time before she could use
crutches.
In talking further Mrs. Crutchfield
said:
Believed She Would Rscovsr.
''Do you know, I never believed I
us going to die. I Just felt that, I
woultl get well. I know I fooled the
doctors, for they all thought I would
die. When they told me they were
going to amputate my leg. I feared
then I might die, but I knew that If I
ever got off of the operating table alive
I would recover.”
It was then that Mrs. Crutchfield
declared It seemed to her as though
she had been brought Into a new world.
CHISOLM SAID BROKERS
KNE WHE HAD NO MONE Y
Special to The Georgian.
Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 14.—National
Bank Examiner s. H. L. Cooper was
the principal witness In the trial of
Alexander B. Chisolm, former paying
teller of the First National Bank,
charged with embeszllng 3100,000, yes
terday.
Cooper said he was present in Percy's
office when Chisolm broke down and
confessed, after his return from his vu
cation In August last. Turning. to
Cooper, when asked If the broker knew
where Chisolm had gotten his money,
Chisolm had sold:
“Mr. Cpoper, I don't see how they
could have failed to know It; I had no
money of my own."
Cooper said he examined the bank
Mny 15 last, and counted the cash In
charge of the paying teller. He made a
comparison with the books of the gen
eral bookkeepers. While he made no
examination of charge tickets at the
time, a subsequent examination reveal
ed. false charge tickets amounting to
352,326, which Chisolm had used
against certain big patrons of the bunk
to cover his shortage. The witness
said that in checking up the bank's
books after the shortage had been dis
covered lie found that Chisolm had paid
Qlbert & Clay,' brokers, 397,225, and
Foston & Co., brokers, 3135,935. The
difference between those accounts und
1100,000 represented Chisolm’s bucket
shop winning on cotton. The highest
point Ills shortage ever reached was
3137.000.
During the afternoon several book
keepers were examined to show Chis
olm had manipulated deposit slips and
pay rolls of various corporations and
taken advantage of the cross entry sys
tem to conceal tho alleged shortage.
