SEES CHIEF WERNER

From the story told Chief of Police
Werner by Frank Shaded, Wednesday,
Emo Whytehali was bound for S317
Grove avenue when death came upon
him. No. 1917 Grove avenue is the
home of Mr.. Young Jones. but when
the body of Whytehalt was taken there
all knowledge OF him was denied.
Whytehall was a stranger to the entire
household.
Mr. Shaded says that he did hear
Whytehall mention something about
sanitarium and he possibly may be
mistaken in regard to the avenue, but
to the best of his recollection Whyte-
hall was bound for No 1917 Grove ave-
nue. that eventful morning one week
ago.
1t will be recalled that the negro
driver of the grocery wagon who took
Whytehai to the Jones home said that
he had been stopped by a white man
who engaged his services. MIR. Shad-
ell was that man.
1t was made plain Wednesday that
Mr.. Shadeli was boarder at the Juhl
esta Enlistment, 522 West Clay street,
when Emo Whytehall came 10 live
there. on the day Whytehall left the
place for the last time he WAS aceoin-
panied by Mr.. Shadell. 1t appears that
the old man desired company and Mr.
Shaded obligingiy went with him TO
see that he got along all right.
Complained Of Pains.
All the way to- Robinson's station
whytehail was complaining of pains
near his heart. Mr. Shaded thought
he merely had rheumatism, but when
they got off the ear at the station he
saw that Whytehall was really very
H.
Just then q grocery team driven by
"A negro boy came along and Mr.. Shad-
ELL asked him to take Whytehall to his
destination, The boy said he would,
after considerable haggling, IL the old
man would wait until he had delivered
his groceries. Then Whytehsll was
helped into the wagon, Mr.. Shadell
heard. him give the boy the number
1917, and thought he said Grove ave-
nue., and that is the last he saw of Emo
Whytehall.
Mr.. Shadell is glass blower by
trade and now lives in Manchester.
One week he works night times and
the next during the day. 1t was while
he was working nights that Whyte-
hall stopped at the West Clay street
house. so he saw but little of him. he
says. He gave his Information about
accompanying Whytehall to Robin
son street just to clear up the ques-
young white man" who had helped
Whytehall into the grocery wagon and
had him conveyed to the home of
Young Jones
Miss Davis Writes.
Wednesday Chief Of Police Werner
received letter from Mary G. f..
Davis of Clifford, Mass, telling what
she knew of Whytehaii. The address
Of Miss Davis was found on an I'M
stamped envelope in Whytehail's va
lise.
Miss Davis wrote that WhytehalI
had been sent to her home by the Sec
Rotary of the New Bedford Y. NJ. c. A.
He was represented to her as a man
of means. WHITEHALL in his talks with
Miss Davis fully Endorsed this propo-
sition, He showed her picture of
a handsome country house and said
that this was his summer home in
England, just eleven miles outside of
London. He claimed to have a sis
Ter and a brother living in England
and three daughters living in Ger
many. Altogether he was man who
made most favorable impression
upon Miss Davis.
Chief Werner has not received any
communications to show that Whyte-
hall was u notorious hotel and board
ever. that whytehall was a degene-
rate and Mas undoubtedly the man
arrested in Philadelphia who was
known as Ross Norwood, or Thomas
Walton.
