Blaine to conclude that "there is one
fact that stands out clearly and that
is that Johnson did not murder Annie
Lembereer."
Who did kill the young girl ami
later attempt to hide her body in
Lake Monona probably will never be
definitely established, it Is said.
The father availed himself of the
statute of limitations, causing the
case to be nolle prossed. He had
been accused ot killing his daughter
with a beer bottle during a drinking
party at his heme when she failed to
chey him as promptly as he wished.
It was after ten years spent in the
state's prist n that Johnson protested
his innocence and applied to gov
ernor blaine for a pardon, lie then
claimed that, his confession had been
made because of fear that he would
be mobbed.
This contradictory attitude of
Johnson in first admitting his guilt
and later maintaining his Innocence
caused Governor Blaine to say that
"a man of ordinary strength of char

himself of crime but Johnson's type
might accuse himself falsely of
crime through fear, hallucination.

an accessgry or as one who stood by,

depraved to follow any course except
the course pursued by Johnson."
