BUFFALO, March li.-Mrs. Carrie Lamb
| Pennell died at the sisters hospital At
been sure from the beginning that her
injuries were mortal, yet they had hopsd
| for the interests Of those concerned In two
| tragedies that some time before death
came she would be able to speak word
| or two and say whether accident or design
caused the automobile horror OF last
night. But Mrs. Pencils last conscious
moment was the moment when abe and
her husband. Arthur r. Pennell, plunged
over the brink OF tho quarry at Kensins-
ton She died without q word or q moan.
without pain and without the knowledge
| OF her whereabouts or Of her husband's>
instant death.
II she had been able to listen and TO speak
or move her head. second question might
have been asked Of her before she died.
and her reply might have set aside ths
doubts that will remain in many minds -
to the supposed connection Of her husband
with the killing of Edwin L. Burdick. II
she had said on her deathbed that she did
| not believe that Arthur knew who was the
murderer, her word probably would have
gone farther than any that has yet been
spoken in the mystery. Mrs. Pennell has
the honest sympathy Of nearly all who
knew the story Of the Burdick circle and
| the resultant murder. -
In all the talk that has gone about oon-
corning the intrigues and the divorce casss.
Mrs. Pencils name has not been men,
TONED. II there was any comment upon
her 1t was because Of her apparent recon-
ciliation TO her husband, and this may Be
accounted for by her faith in him or her
desire to indicate 10 the world that she
would believe him faithful until he was
proved false. II such proof existed, the
| death Of Burdick eliminated II, for IL was
he who made the charges linking the name
| of his wife with that Of the lawyer. For
weeks the Pencils have been almost in
separable, and, now that death has kept
them together, they will lie side by side
In one grave in New England ohurchyard.
Mrs Pennels death was due to the con-
cusson OF the brain, which she received In
the fall upon the rock. Up TO noon to-day
she appeared TO be holding her own, but
soon after that her pulse began to fail and
her teSsuorature rose. At 5 O'Clock her
less becdfne paralyzed. and at $50 O'Clock,
\ whom her relatives arrived. sbe vas sinssngs
fast. From that time death crept gradually
upon her and she died a. though she were
falling asleep.
On tho Empire State Express, which
reached Buffalo at 4:45 o'clock this After
noon. were Mrs. Abbie Y. Pennell and J.
Fred Pennell, the mother and the brother
of the dead man. With them were Mrs.
A. r. Pencils brother, Henry W. Lamb
OF New Haven, and Mrs. Lamb. Pennell's
friend, Thomas Penney. met the Pennells
and the Lambs as they left their car and
took them to the street by private ssdt.
| The party drove Immediately TO the
Hospital of the Sisters Of Charity. arriv-
| ing there at $50 O'Clock DR.. Eugene
smith. who performed the operation on
| Mrs. Pennell. took the relatives to the
room where the dying woman lay. She made
no sign OF consciousness Of their presence.
and although stimulants we're given In the
hope that the presence Of her sister and
brother might revive her. Mrs. Penns0
remained silent and almost motionless.
Il only regret that they went for that
ride said the elder Mrs. Penns'i N
she and Arthur had only remained al home
Mrs Lamb said she was sure that they
would vet show that neither her sister nor
her brother in Law had any knowledge
Of the Burdick tragedy. They remained
with the dying woman half an hour and
then drove TO the Pencil home on Clevs-
land avenue.
