showed the ravaget of a terrible
night of suffering and the had to be

'My poor babet." the murmured as
the tossed her head wearily, from
title to side.
Relatives in Fort Dodge, la., have
been notified. Rev. Howard Whit
comb of Calvary Baptist church is
in charge of funeral arrangements.
Finds Bodies.
Mrs. McGill found the three bod
ies, when she returned home from the
Kimball laundry, where she is em
ployed. She grabbed the little girl, who
was held under the right arm of the
dead man, and ran into the yard,
streaming for help. The boy was
held between McGill' legs, accord
ing to Police Officer M. Jenson, who
investigated the case.
The windows of the house were
shut tieht. All the doors were closed
and the iront door, which is usually
left unlocked during the day, was
locked.
Seven jets of the lighting fixtures
and the gas atove poured the poison
funics into the room. .
"I tried the front door and found
it locked."' said Mrs. McGill. That
. was unusual. I went to the back
door and when I opened it I saw
them all lying on the floor. There
was gas pouring out of the room."
Police Surgeon Houlton, who was
railed, said that the three had been
dead more than an hour.
Bought Candy for Children.
"Mr. McGill came to my house
just before noon." said Mrs. Ostrand,
"and asked for Catherine. Roy was
('laying on the sidewalk. He took
the children to the grocery store and
bought them some candy and then

went to the McGill home about 2
and yelled for the children, but no
tlead then. It is a shame, for the
v children and the mother were very
fine.
V "Catherine was a beautiful girl with
big blue eyes and dark black hair."
Then Mrs. Ostrand broke down
and wept.
According to Mrs. Ostrand, IMc
Gill said to her recently:
"Have you ever reached the point
where vou don't care what happens?
Well, that is the way I feel. If H
wasn't for the children I would cut
nv, throat."
Had Domestic Trouble.
McGill was an employe of the
k'irkcndall Shoe company until a
year ago. He had been employed
there for 18 years, as a shoemaker,
according to neighbors. He quit
about a year ago and went to work
for the telephone company. For sev
eral months he has been out of em
ployment, and this has worried him,
ihev said.
Police reports slated that Mr. and
Mrs. McGill have been having domes
tic trouble and that about a year ago,
Alice, 16, daughter ot McGill by his
first wife, who died, left home be
cause of a quarrel with her step
mother. Neighbors said this led to
quarrels between Mr. and Mrs Mc
Gill. The girl is now in an institu
tion in the itate, police said. .
Mr. and Mrs. McGill have been
married 10 years. When they were
married McGill was 42 and his
wife 21.
