THRILLING
and TRAGIC.
Her Tale May Send Her Grand
father to the GaIIoWs.
TWO OF THE FAMILY KILLED
Child Declares That accused Man Shot
Down Mother and Grandmother
In Her Presence
TWO OF THE FAMILY KILLED

New York, May 1-As a witness against
her granfather, the alleged slayer OF her
mother and OF her grandmother, Maud
Ferguson, 19 years Old told In the Essex
County court, I'm Newark y. j.. yester-
day, OF the double tragedy The prisoner.
Philemon b. Crelin. turned his eyes away
from his granddaughter when she went
TO the stand, and in language which was
simplicity inself, told the story OF the Feb
ruary night which was the most fateful
IN the history OF her family. The child
was the last witness and the best as far
as the purposes OF the county prosecutor
were concerned.
TALE A TRAGIC ONE.
She told her story as IL she were re-
viewing in her mind the scenes of that
night. The recital OF facts by skilled
rhetoician could not have equalled in ef-
fectiveness that which was given by the
child. She had come into the court with
the belief that come what might she must
tell the whole truth.
Questions of the prosecutor and even
cross examination OF the defence were
put in such way as TO spare her feel
ing much as possible, for she had
the presence OF third on trial for his
life.
She said that she, her mother, grand
mother and grandfather all lived i'm the
Empire Flats. in Mllburn. on Feb. last
her grandfather had a knife, and she
thought he was acting very strangely
She asked him what he was going TO do
with the weapon. and he told her he would
take IL to bed with him. His talk aroused
Mrs. Ferguson, who disarmed her father.
There was a quarrel, the girl said, be-
tween her grandfather and her grand
mother on the following night She heard
two shots and then her grandmother and
mother screamed.
SAW TWO KILLED.
'T was sitting in the dining ROOM"
continued the witness, studying my les
sons for the next day, when i heard the
shooting. Grandpa looked out In the
room where / was. L was afraid when I
heard the shots and hid under the dining
room table lie came out ss I got down
from the chair and shot as / was getting
under the table. The bullet did not hit
me. Then he shot himself and fell on
the floor. i got up and ran. / had TO
step over my mother and my grand
mother who looked as IL they were dead.
/ ran down the stairs to the fiat or one
of the neighbors and then hurried into
the street"
Nothing in the cross examination shook
the testimony OF the girl witness.
There were I'm the court yesterday many
witnesses from Milburn. who testified to
incidents which preceded the shooting. IL
was shown that Crelin had often made
threats to shoot his wife and daughter.
Three nurses from the Orange Memorial
hospital testified that on the night of the
tragedy Crelin was brought TO the insti-
tuion suffering from "A self-infiiced wound
In the leg. The nurses said that the man
had remarked that he hoped the wounds
of his wife and daughter would prove
fatal and that he too would die.
