Ccontinusd from PRS. Pags)

Little IS known OF Mrs. westlake's
life or character before marriage. ex-
cept that she lived in Martins Ferry,
and, II is said. stayed for a time at the
county infirmary in Elm Grove. II is
understood that Westlake made her
acquaintance while she was at the
infrmary.
Westlake Threatened7
IL was said yesterday that she had
upon several occasions threatened 10
kill her husband. but these reports
could In no way be confirmed, and are
given little credence.
Westlake was right-handed, and the
fact that he was wounded in the left
temple is regarded as rather peculiar
by the authorities. IL IS pointed ont
also. that a man with suicidal intent
would hardly shoot himself I'm the left
arm and then do contortion act in
an effort to shoot himself in the left
temple. II IS upon these two points
that the murder theory Is advanced.
and efforts will be made 10 slft these

An element OF sadness IS added 70
the tragedy in the fact that yester-
day was Westlake's forty-frst birth
day. The victim IS survived, in add
ton 70 his wife and child. by one bro
Their, Christopher. two single sisters
and married sister. Mrs. Bruhn, all
