Even nfter the confession which
startled the world had been mnde,
Mrs. McNnmam refused to believe
her boys wero guilty. Sho exhibited
a letter from John J., telling her to
keep up her spirits, for her sons were
innocent and that everything would
come out right. Gradually, however,
realization of the truth dawned upon
her, and when the heavy gates of Snn
Quentiu closed behind her two sons
she began to fail.
"Tho blow when her boys con
fessed struck Mrs. McNnmnrn to he
heart," declared Rev. Father Hiekey,
