Burning question after cjues tion at you and every time you holler I didnt do it have someone cram it back down your hroat? Finally I couldnt take it any longer and I confessed Yes confessed to a murder I didn t commit The room was in an uproar flash bulbs exploded everywhere reporters raced to the phone to have their paper hold When the jury adjourned I was led to my cell by two guards In fifteen minutes I was led back in by the same two guards and brought to stand before the judge and jury while the verdict was to be given The foreman rose and I heard his voice strong and clear We your Honor find the defendant guilty I stood there not say ing anything not hearing anything just standing there until I was led away by two guards I was sentenced to die at midnight july 4 Funny thing that was my birthday But what do birthdays count when you re going to die? In the four and a half months that fol lowed nothing mattered to me I read a great deal but slept most of the time Finally almost before I knew it the time had come I had a big feed of steak with peas and mashed potatoes just like Mon used to have home on Sunday The priest walked with me down the long dark c rridor Then the guards cut off the Pride Fifty Cne- Difie Print sleeves and cuffs of my clothes 11 55 Five more minutes of life I made no struggle or fuss as they strapped me into the chair The only sound was the droning voice of the priest beside me praying for my soul Any last words?

The summer passed slowly then in the early fall I had made my decision I would kill Henry The nights grew cooler and the s orching heat of summer was over At last my chance had come Henry had been away all day on a business trip He had come home upset and nervous That night he couldn t sleep so I suggested a cup of hot cocoa to settle his nerves I went downstairs and made the cocoa with one ingredient not called for in the recipe Ten sleeping pills I knew would be enough to end my dear husband s miserv Tomorrow I would be a rich woman Everything went as planned until a few weeks later when I began to feel uneasv I was alone in the house now because after my Henry s death the servant left One cold November evening as I sat be .
