FOR LIFE
Lydia Southard Charged
With Murder of Her
Fourth Husband.
Twin Palls, Idaho, Sept. 27.—
Mrs. Lydia Southard, regarded
by many as a woman Bluebeard,
was today placed on trial on the
charge of murdering her fourth
husband, Edward P. Meyer, The
state is endeavoring to prove
charges of poisoning, as alleged
in indictments charging her with
the murder of three previous
husbands—Robert Dooley, Wm.
Chaftie and Charles Lewis.
The woman admits that four
of her husbands and a brother
in-law died mysteriously, but
claims that her only explanation
of this fact is that she believes
herself to be a tvphoid carrier,
Mrs. Southard’s present hus
band followed her from Hono
lulu, where she was arrested, to
be in attendance at her tr*al and
aid in her defense.
