man. a Portland woman. Inspector
Holtz was accompanied by Mr. Robert
L. Phillips, also of the Portland police
department, who will assist in return
ing Johnson to Portland for trial. Dis
cussing the case Inspector Holtz char
acterized the murder of Mrs. Freeman
as one of particularly atrocious char
acter. Johnson, who has confessed to
Marshal Jordan and others that he is
responsible for Mrs Freeman's death,
was in some degree a protege of Mrs.
Freeman. Me attacked his benefactress

on the head, Johnson searched her
home in an effort to discover $700

sion. Finding only the small sum *>f
$40. he proceeded to vent his disap
pointoment by again striking Mrs.
Freeman, who was presumably dead
from the effects of the first blow, as
she lay on the floor. Johnson con
fessed to this particularly brutal dis
play shortly after his arrest by Mar
shal Jordan. Letters found in Mrs.
Freeman’s apartments disclose that
•he was greatly interested in Johnson
and was evidently doing all that was
liofislble to assist him to forego his
vicious propensities and lead a better
life. Letters and other evidences ob
tained by the Portland police disclose
that Johnson has a child and also a
sister add father residing in Califor
nia.
