second floor of the house. The face
was framed in still winter hair.
When the darkness came few looked
up at the window or saw 1t there in the
shadows. A flash from street lamp
revealed 1t to Detectives ,Rasch and
Cromwell. of the Bedford Avenue Sta
ton. last night. but they passed on,
although its ghastliness appealed to
them. That same white face was at
the pane when they passed that way
again this morning. They went UP
to see why the old woman had sat
there so long.
They called to her when they en-
tered the room, the door of which was
unfastened. but there came no answer.
One OF the men placed hand on her
forehead; 1t was cold In death.
