MOTIVE FOR DEATH RETOLD
Special Prosecutor Kelly, of Tacoma,
In Final Plea for State, Blames
Lust of Defendant for Wealth
as Cause of Death.
PORT ORCHARD, Feb. I. The fate
of Mrs. Linda Burfleld Hasxard, the
"starvation doctor" on trial In the Kit
sap County Superior Court her-,
charged with murder in the first de
gree in causing tne death of her pa
tient. Miss Claire Williamson, an Eng
lish heiress, is now in the hands of
the Jury.
At the close of the night session th'e
Jurors retired to deliberate, the Judge
informing them that a verdict would
be received at any time they were ready
to report.
Attorneys for the defense consumed
nearly all of the day sessions with a
review of the case. In his closing argu
ments. Special Prosecutor Frank H.
Kelly, of Tacoma, said:
Final Plea for Guilty Made.
I want you to believe, as I do, that
no thought by this woman of bringing
about the death of Claire Williamson
was conceived before the dead woman
and her sister bad been, for at least
two weeks, under ths personal control
of this defendant.
"However, the element of lust for the
wealth of her patients' Jewelry, ready
money, funds In the bank and an es
tate of large proportions was greater
than she could withstand. And, com
mencing with the date of February 15,
she left no effort undone that would
bring about the death of both patients,
that she could acquire their fortunes.
"In the hands of this designing per
son they were treated like a bundle of
soiled linen, run through a wringer and
made to produce every atom of finan
cial nutriment t(jelr circumstances
could supply."
Motive of Death Seen.
Going into the motive for Claire
Williamson's death, Mr. Kelly support
ed the prosecution's claim that It bad
traced the defendant's culpability from
the time of a first letter to the patient,
who waa then in Victoria, B. C. in
which it was represented that the
treatment required could be obtained
from purchasing and reading the de
fendant's starvation health treatise,
through devious financial transactions
that Included an endowment by will, a
gift of 11000, powers of attorney
through which nearly $2000 was col
lected, and finally, a plot whereby a
pension and estate In Australia said to
be worth $500,000 would be secured.
Fakers WateaJaa; Case.
Counsel declared the trial was
watched eagerly and with hope by
every unworthy healing practitioner
and faker in the country.
Throughout the denunciation the de
fendant sat with eyes closed, but with
Jaws set firmly, as though in defiance
of all that could be said against her.
The last day of the trial brought
out large numbers of people, who
flocked to the little courthouse here to
hear the arguments of the attorneys.
The day was begun with the closing
argument for the defense, which was
made by George W. Gregory, of Se
attle. Mr. Gregory was followed by
Special Prosecutor Kelly, who was
employed by the British government
to assist the Kitsap County authori
ties In the case.
Miss Dorothea Williamson, sister of
the dead English heiress, occupied a
seat Inside the bar. She was accom
panied by Miss Margaret Conway, the
aged Australian Governess, and by Dr.
Silas Van Deerlln. pastor of the Christ
Episcopal Church. Los Angeles, a life
long friend of the Wlllamsons. A. C
Luclen Agassis, British Vice-Consul at
Tacoma. who Instigated the investiga
tion that resulted In the bringing of
the murder charge against Mrs. Has
sard, also sat within the enclosure.
It will require several hours for the
Jury to read the Judge's charge and
the documentary evidence. ' A verdict
can scarcely be reached tonight.

Dr. Barber was the first to notice

went In search of a stranger who had
his teeth examined that day and
aroused the doctor's suspicions, for.
though his molars were full of fillings,
not a cavity could be discovered,
'other dentists report the same expe

that he could get a line on where the

Drs. Bundy and Phlpps were the
