Goldman Sneers at Sorrow
Chicago, Sept. 19.—Memorial services were held
in the woman’s ward of the jail. Emma Goldman was there, though not of her own
volition and while many prisoners manifested great grief she was unmoved and
indifferent. When “Nearer, My God, to Thee” was sung Goldman turned her back
upon the singers and busied herself with a book she carried.
The anarchists who are being held on the charge
of complicity in the president’s assassination were offered an opportunity to
participate in the memorial exercises in the jail, but all refused.
