DID SHE LOSE THE RING?
WELL, AT LEAST, LUCILLE DIDN'T GIVE IT BACK

Logansport Daily Reporter, 27 May 1908


St. Louis. May 27.-
Lucille Mulhall, expert horsewoman, daughter of Zach Mulhall, of St. Louis and Oklahoma, may keep the $400 diamond ring Price Taylor gave her.

That is she may, if she can find it. Strange to say, the ring has disappeared since Price Taylor, of the 101 ranch, started suit to make Miss Mulhall give it back to him.

Miss Mulhall fought a hard court battle to keep the ring. She denied that she promised to marry Taylor. She declared that he gave her the ring on Christmas day and that she considered it "only a present."

Did she sign her letters to Taylor with "Much love" and "Yours with love?" Sure, but they were just letters from one friend to another. Miss Mulhall swore she was in the habit of addressing her friends in this manner.

And then after all this evidence and after the judge had said she might keep the ring, she lost it.

Ain't it awful, Mabel?
