She was an unusually pretty girl and long ago she had discovered that» the park of a warm evening offered no •end of adventurous entertainment for a pretty girl walking «lone. Presently she heard Homebody walking behind her. Caaually she glanced over her shoulder and her heart quickened its beat as she recognised the young and handsome boy who had attempted to flirt with her on previous "occasions. She smiled briefly. Among other things ^Itinftie/had learned the correct timing for her smiles of encouragement.

Assistant Comptroller Gen. Frank L.

Counsel for Macavoy said his client made no attempt to deny what he had done^ and was anxious to let people know the truth: that, in fact, it was a suicide pa9t. "It is one of those cases," said counsel, "in which counsel is not able to be of nrtuch assistance to the defense.
