SEATTLE, Jan. 25. (/P)—Dr. C. C.
Dobbs, Kirkland dentist, was placed
in jail Saturday night in connection
with the death of Letitia Whitehall.
He was grilled nine hours, during

identified him as the man they saw
leaning over the bridge near which
the girl’s body was found. A coupe
nearby contained the girl’s inert form.
Wrhen the man saw the Gerards he
leaped into the automobile and drove
away.
The investigation was reopened
when Professor William Dehn, State
chemist, announced that a deadly
amount of narcotic was found in the
girl’s stomach. Officers ransacked
Dobbs’ home seeking narcotics. A
quantity of powdered stuff taken is
being analyzed. Dobbs was the last
person seen with Letitia -when he re
paired her teeth free.
