FEARFUL' OF PRISON, TAKES POISOHJN CELL (Continued From Page One.) forgive the state of Oregon for bunging me up. They wrecked my body and now they want to send me back and wreck my mind. 1 am sorry for the way I have lived, but it's too late now so 1 take this way out. Remember, crime don't pay." A post script stated "A pal got this (the posion) for me. Don't write, address unknown." The "bunging up" of his body re ferred to an operation for cancer undergone while a county ward, which saved his lire, but left him In pain and embittered against the state which he held responsible for his condition. He wrote another suicide note to a second Medford woman, thanking her for having been his friend, and telling her goodbye. A third note, written in code, was to the rortlaitd police department. A post mortem examination wns made on the body, and the specimens will be forwarded tothe University of Oregon medical school for analysis. A brown fluid found In the mnn's cell, believed to be some of the death potion, will also be forwarded. Jailer Ingllng stated yesterday that a close check is kept of all visitors to the Jail, and a record made of each caller. These records, for the past week, since Randall had been held In confinement, were being checked ye.tevday in an effort to dis cover who might have brought the poison to the man. When found, Randall was wearing a huge ring, with a small space on the under side In which a poison might have been hidden, but It is not yet known If enough of the poison could have been placed there to have caused death. Randall was apparently a Catholic, for tn one of his notes he asked that Rev. Father Black, of the Sacred Henrt Catholic church here, be noti fied that he was "sorry." Suicide bars any person from the rights of burial tn the Catholic church. Gall T. Randall, 245 South Central street, father of the dead man, will announce the funeral services later.
