plicated in the Scituate murder mystery.
Mrs. Thomas Whelan. with whom the
murdered woman spent her last night.
told the police that whom Mrs. Chambers
left her house she was going to Harris
Vile with keegan, with whom she had
been keeping company for some time and
to whom she had given 81, 600 insurance
carried by her deceased husband, besides
all her own earnings. They were going
to Harrisyille to complete tho purchase
of a saloon for Keegan. 1t was for that
journey that she hired the team from

Detective Parker discovered that Mrs.
Chambers was murdered between and
