MYSTERIOUS DEATH

BODY OF I7-YEAR-0LD CLARA
sTRAYER AND HoUsEKEEpER
FOUND FLOATING IN MAUME
RIVER SUSPICION FOUL PLAY.

CHICAGO, July IA dispatch to thu
Record Herald from Toleda, O.. says;
Following the supposed suicide Of IT,
year-old Clara Strayer. in the Maumet
/, river Monday. was the discovery yester.
day of the body of Kate Winover, house.
keeper for the girls father, whom the
daughter booked upon as step-mother,
floating in almost the same place as the
corpse Of Miss Strayer when drowned.
Mourners returning from the funeral of
Miss Stayer found the housekeeper's
body. Lincoln Strayer, the girls father,
is farmer, living near Grand Rapids,
Ohio, few miles up the Maumee. His
wife died when the girl was a babe in
arms, and since that time Katie Winover
has been the family housekeeper.
On the river bank this note was
found:
II am buried in the old Maumee. I
am going to mother Bood bye, Clara"
A search then revealed the body.
Tuesday there was found in almost the
same spot note in an entirely different
handwriting which read:
"Dear papa, / want TO bid you and all
the friends good bye. I expect to go
and live with mama for You know how
I am treated by Katie. Your loving
daughter, Clara"
The two notes which experts say were
written by different persons and the
death of the Winover woman, who might
have supplied the mystery, are puzzling
the police. The housekeeper disappeared
Tuesday night.
