this morning after omclals broke
through her deiense of absolute
memory failure in regard to the
deaths of her husband and tour
childttn in the brief Span of four
years.
"I might have accidentally poi-
soned them," she fenced.
An hour later she had signed the
completc confession, denying only
that She had killed her husband and
oldest son.
It was‘i‘rom their deaths that she
dated hcr melancholy spells in which
she planned to poison her “best
loved children one by one to Join
their father and brother.”
' "Then I wanted to kill myself,"
she added. “I took arsenic every
time I gave it to the children. I
didn't want to live ”
The authorities, however, point
out, that the children were poison-
ed singly, it your apart, and that in
