Emma reportedly had gone to Walker's office early Wednesday morning. Dr. Charles L. West was summoned there to administer chloroform. He didn't linger, but returned late that afternoon he found Emma evidently lifeless, with Walker desperately attempting to revive her.
Emma was rushed to St. Anthony's Hospital but declared dead on arrival.
Walker was indicted by a Grand Jury that day, but to my knowledge the case never went to trial.
