Wife killer held as insanity ruling alters case
Lima January 17 William Mohler declared insane by the Allen county grand jury likely to spend remainder of life in Lima State Hospital for the criminal insane. The finding averts a first degree murder trial for killing his wife Catherine Mohler on December 20. A special insanity trial will proceed before Judge C F Becker with a jury on January 33. The superintendent of Columbus Hospital Dr W H Pritchard termed Mohler a dementia of the paranoia type. A fragment of bone lime and decayed shoes found at the Mohler farm burial cistern prompt neighbors to suspect Alfred Mohler, missing two years, but coroner Frank Smith cautioned the evidence may be insufficient to prove cremation in quicklime.
