' i." Orpet's Footprints Reveal Story of the Murder, Says State Waukegan, " "111.. July 12". Foot prints left in the snow in Helms woods, where last February the body of Marion Lambert was found, told the story of the tragedy more plainly than words, Staff's Attorney Ralph H.

He was unable tostandtrre sight of her death throes and his tracks' lead off alone for 144 feet to a cluster of four trees.1 Here1 the tracks show, how he walked' up and down, waiting unfit he thought she was dead. Then he went back. There is no other explanation for these tracks.' He. and Marion were abso lutely alone in the woods-and their tracks were still distinct when Fred Wenban traced them the next day. If this defendant, as he testified, turned back as he was walking away and returned to the body, we can ac count for that frightened pacing up and down behind the four trees only by a miracle."
