She predicted Len Harvey would
lose his British heavyweight title to
Jack Peterson and suffer an eye In
Jury In the fiRht. She forecast the
a to 1 victory of Manchester over
Portsmouth In the foothall final and"
said a red haired boy would kick the
winning goal.
Gene's big triumph came when the
gruesome Brighton trunk murders
were disclosed.
When the first body was found
she wrote in her weekly column:
"This is connected in some way
with another murder, which, but for
this, might never have been dis
covered." Three weeks Inter the second trunk
murder was revealed by officers
searching Brighton premises in con

house and screamed hysterically for
help.
Hyr story was this:
Unable to sleep, she arose In the
night and went Into the front rcom
and had just reached tho door when
two armed men sprang upon her.
One, she said, was tall and the other,
short. They held her by the throat
to keep her from screaming; then one
disappeared into the bedroom.
An ijvtitant later a shot wus fired.
"What in hell did you do that for?"
rxreamed the thug who held Mrs.
Gilhcrscn.
I had to he vok up," answered
the other.
Then, according to the grief-stricken
widow, they fled.
When Mrs. Gilberson told this story
to Ellis Parker he patted her hand
and assured Iwr they would catch the
murdcrera.
"You'd better go heme and get
some rest." he advised kindly.
No sooner had she left his offic:-,
however, than bo turned to his as
sistants and said, "She killed Gllber
jDn!" "How do you figure that?"
'New listen," s:ild Parker. "The
shot was fired the moment tho man
disappeared into the bedroom. There
were only two men there. As the
shot came so quickly, how did the
oth.T thug know it was not tho hus
band who had done the shooting?
Mrs. Gllber.ion says he yelled the mo
ment the shot was fired, 'What In
hell did you do that for?'
"That's not the way an accomplice
would react undr those clrcum-

stances. It seems to rr.c tho natural
thing would bo alarm on his part.
He would leap up, gun ready, ani
call his confederate's name.
"She killed him and cooked uo
this story."
A Jury recommended clemency, and
so th-3 Widow Gilberson is serving a
term for murder.
But If it hadn't been for t'ic
rhro-wd reasoning of Ellis Parker, she
might be a free woman today.
