Tho letter has been offered by the prosecution as evidence that he wa planning to get away. "1 did not havo any occasion to write siii h a letter," he said. "I real iaed that I was slipping oenia!lv. stand this-morning, tcalled by tho de fense to help her husband fight the state's attempt to prove him the inur derer of Dennis Uussell. Dr. Hrumfleld .was, expected to fol low aa a witness in his own behalf as soon a his wifo has undorgouo cross- examination. Mrs. llrumficld touched upon seve ral of thb important features of the evidenco already presented the headaches that other witnesses said wore a forerunner of tho accused den tist's mental stato of July 13; tho hat which the state maintains the mur derer wore, but which tho defense in slsts was hi Dr. Krumfield's offico at tho time; tho. proposed Australian trip; her husband's sleep walking; tho box of lingerie nnd Christmas tree ornaments that led to tho doctor's, nr- rest; and finally, Dr. llrumfleld's dis appearance. Palo nut Composed, Mrs. llrumficld was palo but com posed. Sho spoke in a low tono, but her words wero heard distinctly. Her story began with their marriage in Owenaville, Ind., Ducemhor 10, i!)10 :tftei an acquaintance of .three years. Itight at tho start ono of tho out standing features of tho trial popped up the dynamite. Mrs. llrumficld said that her hus band had used dynamite to blast out stumps on their ranch near Ros burg, and that there was still one stump that had to bo blasted. This was offered as an explanation of the purchase of dynamise which, accord ing to tho stato, ho,r husband made us a part of alleged murder plans. Doctor Urumfleld hftd suffered from severo headaches ever since she hud known him, Mrs. Brumfield said. llo walked in his sleep, sho said, and sometimes would nwnkch laughing or rying. struggling or making violent noises. lately, she said tho doctor had lost his sense of values, had pur chased many needless things for the farm, but had failed to buy necessi ties such as chicken feed and grocer ies. Sho said that nono of the articles In tho box introduced In evidenco be longed to her. Sho Identified tho hat taken by the Coroner from Dr. Krum field's office. It is similar to tho one which witnesses said was worn by the man driving Krumfield's car on the night of tho alleged murder. The de fense maintains that Krumfiold did not wear it at all on that night. Tho surprise to the state of Mrs. Krumfield's testimony vas a declara tion on tho day after her husband had been returned from Canada by Sher iff Sum Starmer rind Deputy - Sheriff Percy Webb. Webb told her that the doctor was insane. The declaration put tho prosecution in n- scurry to got hold of Webb nnd find out what he had to say about It, On July 12, rrs. Prumfield declar ed, she and her husband came into Koseburg to attend a baseball game. In the evening they went to n picture show, but the doctor could not keep awake and finally left to meet her outside nfter the show. She described the trip to the Mere dith home on Sunday, July 10, saying tlt her husband slept most of the J day. She told of him helping ono of the boys pick up some spilled KK shot tho last thing which the doctor re membered according to his own state ment. Until after his arrest in Canada. Doctor Met Knsfiell. "Do you know when tho doctor I first met Dennis Uussell?" asked Dex ter Rice, of council for tho defense." Yes I think- it was on Juno 28 at the Meredith homestead." "Was the doctor introduced to Den nis Uussell in your presence?" They were. Tho doctor was not thero when Mr. Uussell came up and Mr. Uussell sat on tho porch and talk ed to myself and my niece for somo time beforo the doctor came up. Then the testimony went jumping along in some such fashion as this: What kind of hat did tho doctor have?" . A light straw hat a Panama, I think," she replied. This was tho only hat ho had, but he also had a gray cap." Did you sen a box introduced in evidenco nnd did you see tho contents of that box?" Yes. From my chair T saw them.' Aro any of those articles your property?" t "No sir." I,at See .7 sir 1Mb. The last time she saw the tctor, prior to his disappearance, she said, was on the morning of July 13. "He called me,from the gate," she said, "and said I'pi ten minutes late; I'll have to hurry.' " Twico that day, she testified, her husband called her on the telephone to say that he would be working lato. ' Sho said that Dr. Brumfield owned a 30-caliber riflo and that ho took it to tho Meredith homestead on July 10 and that sho never saw it again. Concerning Dr. Brumfield's inquiry on the cost of shipping an automobile to Austrnlia, sho said ho did not own a car of tho make he was reported to have mentioned and had never dis cussed purchase of a car. 'Mrs. Brumfield insisted that she "knew" her husband was out of his head at tho time of his disappear ance. Bad Attack' July 13. "When did ho havo the next bad at tack?" asked Joseph Hammcrsly, as sisting prosecutor, after a long lino of i questions about tho doctor's head- . aches and other matters bearing on his mental condition. 'July 13" answered Mrs. Brumfield. 'How do you know?" "1 know!" 'How do you know?" "I know It. just as I know I am here." y Ho had no manifestation that caus ed you to think ho was insane, did he?" ' "No, ho always had theso attacks and I just accepted them as a part of him.", i v, . 1 -. - Often her husband did not sleep after 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning she j said, and frequently he would seek out his tractor with the aid of a flashlight and begin plowing before daylight.
