REV. EDWARDS KILLED q
MANUEL.

Grim tragedy stalked abroad Tues
day night. when Rev. A. E. Edwards
pastor of Central Baptist church OF
this city, was killed in his home by
James Jerrold Manuel A revolver
was used in the killing and repeated
shots were fired, all hitting. After
the shooting the assailant gave him
self up. Various reasons are being
assigned for the shooting.
The prominence of the victim and
the long residence and wide acQuaint-
ance of the assailant make this case
one of unusual interest and more than
ordinary regret
The pastorate of Rev. Edwards at
Central church has been a little over
one year. During that time he has
had the support of the membership
and has achieved a financial and nu-
merical success that was gratifying to
the Centrals members and friends
]. ]. Manuel is one of Denver's old
citizens He is well known for the
prominent part he has played in pol
itics. He is a speaker of considerable
ability and has often been heard on
the platform during campaigns. He
has been a member of Central for
years and been an officer there. At
no time has he been characterized by
hasty actions and the surprise is gen.
eral that he is involved in such a
tragedy. He is resident of North
Denver, where he owns home.

A STATEMENT OF CORRECTION
FROM THE WIFE OF THE REV.
A. e. EDWARDS.

The various papers have quoted me
as having forced confession from
my husband and then forced hie to
go to the home of j. ]. Manuel. This
statement is false.
On last Tuesday morning my hus-
band came into the room where | was
and said he had heard me tell several
people | did not intend to return to
Denver and asked if | meant it.
told him | did and he asked me the
reason. | then told him | could no
longer stand his conduct as it was in
Denver, but if he would leave Den
yer and do better l would live with
him. but as everything said TO him
and him alone he told the parties he
had so prejudiced the people against
me l could do no good and l could
make no defense without exposing
him, and couldn't afford to do that and
stay with him. He said he knew he
had done wrong and that his greatest
accusation was my poor health, as he
believed worry had done this, and
from that morning in Denver or else
where he never intended to give me
any more trouble. He then said he
knew Mrs. Manuel had treated me
wrong. but he felt that he was the
cause, for while he had not told her
| knew of the matter. he had told her
l did not like her about him. He then
said. If you will so with me out there
will make a clean breast of it and
the affair shall stop" l told him
did not care to go. as Mrs. Manuel
was peculiar and disagreeable wom-
an. I did not think she was home the
first of the week. and besides. as
wanted to finish up at the Moler col
lege this week, did not have the
time to spare. He asked me II he
found she was at home. would l 90
after school hours. and l consented.
He called at the Moler college for me
and told me he had gone to the home
of Mrs. Manuel's mother and she said
she was not sure what days Mrs. Man
uel was out and likely he would hnd
