Margaret Herlihy
Freed of Murder
Of Army Captain
BISBEE, Ariz., Dec. 21. (AP)
It took just long enough for a
jury of westerners to find out
whether to sign the verdict with
pen or pencil before they ac
quitted Margaret Herlihy of kill
Ing Capt. David D. Carr, father
of her unborn child.
Immediately the jurors were
dismissed they crowded around
the 21-year-old, red haired girl
and shook her hand.
More than one said that If he
had been In her position he would
have dealt with Carr in the same
manner.
As Margaret, smiling through
tears, departed, courtly, kindly
County Attorney John Pj Ross,
the chief prosecutor, shook her
hand and said:
"Now you go get some rest.
If I had been on the Jury, I
would have acquitted you, too."
The jury had heard Margaret,
daughter of Lt. Col. and Mrs. E.
G. Herlihy, tell how she fell In
love with handsome Captain
Carr at first sight, married him
in Mexico while under the influ
ence of drinks he pressed upon
her, and killed him when he made
a beastly attack upon her while
in a frenzy over his complicated
marital affairs.
Margaret tearfully related that
she knew little or nothing about
the ceremony until Carr revealed
to her the next day that the
marriage not only had been per
formed but consummated.
