BETROTHAL SECRET ONE
Fiancee Comes From South for the

Chicago, Jan. PA secret romance
came to light yesterday following the
finding of the body Of Fred H. Weaver,
30 years old, of 1923 Maple avenue,
Evanston, a member of the Chicago
Board of Trade, in a park at the foot
of Main street, Evanston, with bul

lay beside the body.
Three sealed letters were found in
Mr.. Weaver's pockets. One was ad-
dressed to his father, Joseph D.
Weaver, a member of Weaver Broth
ers, real estate operators, 1873 West
Washington street, and the other two
10 Miss Ella Wade, Paris, Texas.
Miss Wade left Paris for Chicago
last night after being informed of
Mr.. Viewers death. She admitted
they were engaged, but said they had
planned to keep their betrothal secret.
Several weeks ago, she said, Mr..
Weaver visited her and seemed to be
a nervous wreck. A letter received
by her Monday, however, said he was
in the best Of spirits. Miss Wade
visited Evanston last summer as the
guest of Miss Mary Ross of 1928 Hin
man avenue.
BODY NEAR LAKE SHORE.
/ Mr.. Viewers body was found by
! William F. Burns, an attorney, living
at S3S Sheridan road, Evanston. 1t

J from, he loly
! fed the police.
Mr.. Weaver had been suffering
/ from nervous breakdown for about
six months. Because of the disorder
ne was forced practically to give VI
his business connections at the board
of trade.
The last person known to have
seen Mr.. Weaver alive is George l.
COrke, a druggist at COO DempsteI
street, Evanston. Mr.. Corke said Mr.
Weaver entered his store at 9 O'Clock
Monday night and asked about the
effect of dog biscuit on the human
system and then asked the druggis
to sell him some rat poison. The
druggist refused.
The police believe Weaver visited
Chicago and purchased the revolvel
found by his body after Corkes re
fusal to sell him the poison.
