The entertainment at the church Monday was very entertaining and filled the purpose of a Christmas entertainment in a manner that could not be justly criticised. The Peck children had a great time out at the old homestead with their mother, R. Peck, as hostess Christmas Day. Such gatherings at the Peck home have always been well rounded up affairs from any conceivable standpoint of family enjoyment and this was no exception to the rule. However, there was a feature of diversity in attention, out of the order of expectancy, by the presence of Dave Beahm.

of Colorado, husband of she who was formerly Miss Bertha Peck. Mr. Beahm arrived here on a visit on Monday and on finding out that there would be a Christmas gathering, concluded to seclude his presence and walk in unannounced, which he did to a surprising effect and enjoyment of all the home friends. Those' present as given in family mention as follows: Elmer Peck and family. Ray Peck and family, Dewey Peck and family.

District Attorney Buron Fitts says that only one link in the chain of evidence is missing, and ex-Gov. F. W. Richardson says he has definite evidence to identify the slayer. Former District Attorney Asa Keyes, however, scoffs at the story, and Charles Eyton, production manager at the Lasky studios, where Taylor formerly directed, characterizes the disclosures as a fairy tale.
