CLEVELAND, July 15, 1921 – In a dramatic turn of events, the trial of Eva Catherine Kaber, accused of plotting the murder of her husband, Daniel F. Kaber, in their Lakewood home two years ago, reached its climax as the jury received the case. The six-week trial, which began on June 28, was a gripping tale of love, greed, and deceit. Mrs. Kaber’s case was put in the hands of the jury at 6:50 PM this evening, and after a tense evening, the jurors were sent to their room for deliberation on a verdict at 10:00 PM. But just as Judge Maurice Bernon concluded his charge, Mrs. Kaber, who had appeared oblivious to the arguments of counsel, fainted, leaving the courtroom in shock.
