man named Albert Ward and after TWO
days suddenly disappeared. A short
time ago Ward died, and II was rumored
that on his death bed he confessed to the
murder Of Thurber; that he held him
while Andrew Kirkbride, Q butcher, cut
his throat, and that the body was then
thrown In o wsIl. The affair created q
tremendous sensation and was printed In
all the ghborhood papers besides being
telegraphed broadcast
A day or two afterward Kirkbride and
son Of Ward appeared in Wheeling, and
began three libel suits, denouDcing the
story as false. Investigations were at
once set on foot and the we'll searoLed,
