CHARGE OF WIFE MURDER
Hangs Over the Head of George Pc

ln-LaW as Avenger.
(Herald Specially

Colville, Wash, March ! 26-An
avenging mother-in-law is responsible
for the serious plight of George L.
Pepoon, who is about to be placed on
trial here to answer for the alleged
murder of his wife, Mrs. Edith Pc
pooh: The death of Mrs. Pepoon oc-
CURED at Northport last August
Shortly afterward Mrs. w. D. Wolcott
of Portland, the mother of the dead
woman, was informed by neighbor
of Mrs. Pepoon that her death had
been unusual. Mrs. Wolcott went i'm
mediately to NOrthport and set to
work quietly to unravel the mystery
AS result of her Investigations Pc
poon was arrested on a charge of MUIR
der in the first degree and a similar
Indictment was returned against Ray
Wilcox, who is believed to have fur
nished the styrchnine or other poison
which caused Mrs. Pepoon's DEATH
Wilcox, who is an ex-convict, left
the town shortly after Mrs. Pepoon' S
death and so far the authorities have
been unable to locate him. The day
of her death Mrs. Pepoon is said to
have been indisposed, but toward
night felt better. While entertaining
friends during the evening she was
given a dose of medicine and few
minutes later, it is stated, she died in
commissions. A few weeks before her
death she had taken out a $1,000 in
surance policy on her life. This, to-
gether with Pepoon's infatuation for
another woman whom he married
three months after his wife's death
