MRS. EATON 1S ACQUITYED.
Jury Returns “Not Guilty” Verdict
After AllNight Session,
Plymouth, Mass —The record of
Mrs. Jennie May Eaton as a wife,
mother and daughter, as told by her
golf during three days of gruelling ex-
amination on the witness stand, freed
her of the charge of having murdered
her husband, Rear-Admiral Joseph
Eaton. When the jury returned a ver
diet of not guilty, after an all-night
session that had given rise to a re
port of disagreement, the news was
flashed by telephone to the Eaton
home in Assinippi, where the accused
woman's crippled daughter Dorothy
and her aged mother, Mrs. Virginia
Harrison, had been wailing many
hours.
