two of the other elderly ladies' have
been arrested). They held insurance
policies on the life of Mrs. Snead for
$4,000. They had Mrs. Snead in
their custody almost as a prisoner for
years. They ordered her life-from
the aristocratic Southern boarding
school of which Miss Wardlaw was
principal to this squalid death in
rented house just outside of New
York.
"A great deal of mystery has sur
rounded all the characters in this
tragedy. The Munsey newspapers
sent Mr.. Albert to the scene of the
murder to analyZe the case. He got
his information either by telegraph.
or long-distance telephone, or per-
sonal talks from those who have
been in contact with the Wardlaws
frow the first. The following article
is the result-a story of mental and
spiritual transformation of persons
bred to the utmost nicely of feeling
which is almost without parallel even
in fiction"
The facts brought out by the Times
show that the life of Mrs. Ocey Snead
was one of the saddest Imaginable
and from all accounts and indications
her aunts were to blame. 1t is life
story that makes the blood of any
true man or woman boil with indig-
nation.
Yet Albert c. Snead, of Palisade,
emphatically and repeatedly has de-
clared to The Sentinel that he knows
that Miss Virginia Warllaw is inno-
cent and that she is as innocent and
pure woman as ever lived. He who
reads the great story of the Washing
ton Times, given without prejudice or
unnecessary comment, will not share
MIR. Snead's opinion.
The facts brought out by the WASH
| ington Times clearly shows that AL
| bert c. Snead knows much of the
dark and mysterious history of the
Snead- Martin families. He
plays an important part in several of
the strange chapters as related by the
Washington Times.
1t must be remembered that accord
ing to the reports two or more poll
cies on the life of the dead woman
were made payable to Albert Snead,
of this county.
Were Married Three Times.
In dispatch under Saturdays date
from New York, the following Is said
regarding Mrs. Snead, the mother OF
Fletcher and Albert Snead, and who
is now under arrest:
Mrs. Snead today was identified by
q Newark, N. j., woman, one of the
two women who called to see about
renting a house and who inquired
particularly about the bathroom.
Fletcher w. Snead, now under sur
veillance In Canada, was married
three times to Mrs. Ocey w. Snead,
the East Orange bathtub mystery
victim, according to information sub
mitted to Prosecutor Mott of Essex
county. today.
1t has been known that two cere-
monies were performed-one in Ken
lucky and the other in Jersey City
but the third one comes as a great
surprise to the authorities who are
investigating the supposed killing of
the young wife.
Just why third ceremony should
have been performed cannot be ex-
plained," said the county prosecutor
today. Mrs. Martin has explained
the first two by saying that Ocey and
Fletcher Snead were first cousins
and that they had a second ceremony
to assure the legality of their mar
riage ties"
