Grandmother Held -A-, In Poison Murders « Confesses Poison Deaths Os Husbands TULSA, OKia. (fNB) — A first degree murder charge will be filed today against a plump, giggling Tulsa grandmother, who has confessed the rat poison murders of four of her five husbands. Mrs. Nannie Doss, 49, Sunday night added the names of her second husband. Frank Harrelson of Jacksonville, Ala., and her third mate. Harley Lanning of Lexington, N. C., to her list of victims. Within the previous 24 hours, the pleasant - faced woman admitted the killings of husbands No. S, Samuel Doss of Tulsa, and No. 4, Richard L. Morton Sr., of Emporia. Kas. Still to be investigated in the Doss case are the mysterious deaths of eight other relatives of the cheerful widow. 'After Signing each confession, the homicide-inclined grandmother lighted up a cigarette and smilingly declared: 'My conscience is clear now." Mrs. Doss said her husbandkilling career began in 1946'when she poured a fatal potion of rat poison into the corn whiskey of Harrelson shortly after they were married. She explained: “He’d been on a bender all day. He tried to force me to go to bed with him. 1 decided I’d teach him and I did. I poisoned his rotgut." The Tulsa county attorney who will file the murder charge against the rosy-cheeked grandmother in the death of husband No. 5, then asked about Lanning. Mrs. Doss replied: "I poisoned him, too. The same way I did with all the rest—with rat poison.” Lanning's death occurred in 1952. Edmondson said he is also* investigating the deaths of her father, mother, two daughters, two sisters, a nephew and a Stepgrandson. The only mate who escaped her penchant for poisoning was her first busband, Charles Bragg of Alabama City, Ala., whom she married in 1921 when she was 16. Bragg phoned Tulsa police that he divorced her afjer becoming suspicious of the deaths of their two daughters, 114 and 2Vi, in 1928, supposedly of food poisoning. Frank Harrelson's brother. Ernest. also phoned to say that Frank’s 2 Vi-year-old grandson and his nephew, for whom Mrs. Doss cared, died shortly before Doth tliafhw were attributed to food poisoning. Two of her sisters died of unknown causes in Gadsden, Ala.. , in 1941 and 1953. Her father. Jim Hazel, died in Lexington, Ky.. in 1961, and her mother, in 1952, both under peculiar circumstances. In commenting on her fifth husband’s murder, she said Doss ‘was mean.” She told of dumping a big dose of rat poison on a dish of prunes she fed him. He spent 23 days in the hospital. The second day after he came
