The courthouse was crowded with newspapermen anxious to catch a glimpse of the accused—Dr. Clay Walters.

Close to tears, pretty Biddy Conway watched the face of the man she loved. Then, fearfully, she turned to look at the jurors. Did they think that Clay could be guilty of malpractice? Mercy killing? Or murder?
