The first time Jennie Cramer came with
the party was in July, when there was

shore, Just after Blanche arrived. John

signed james Malley Jr.'s name to il.
Then Blanche came to one nights occur

Walter, Blanche, James and Jennie Cramer
had been riding. Instead Of returning

Walter Malley's' house, and she finally
consented. When at the Maiiey house
Blanche Douglass was not sick, according
to her own confession, but only feigned
sickness to induce Jennie to stay. While
the young men and Blanche Douglass were
urging Jennie to remain, James NIalley,
Jr, picked her up and carried her strug.
Cling up to a room above, where he passed
the night with her, Jennie's outCries were
such that Blanche, alarmed, urged her from
without not to make so much noise for
fear that it might alarm the neighbors.
Blanche spent Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday nights (the latter was the one Jennie
died) with Walter Malley ut bis own home,
she claimed. The body OF Jennie Cramer
was discovered at West Haven Saturday

the Elliott House to the Austin House, she
was occupied with Walter and James NAL

summoned hastily from New York, in con.
coCtinga story he told before the coroner's
jury. The Malleys had already engaged
counsel. Half dozen stories were pro-
posed and rejected. Finally the one used
was agreed upon. 1t was decided that all
