ANOTHER
IN TRAGEDY OF
ALICE CR|SPELL
POLICE DISCOVER GIRL HAD
SuIToR OTHER THAN JOHNS
NOW HELD.
THEORY ADVANCED THAT IA.
TALLY WAS RESULT OF A
JEALOUS QUARREL.

( WlLKE5.BAR Pa, July o.
Jealousy OF rival suitors is the only
motive the county authorities have
been able TO advance for the murder
Of Alice Crispell. whose body was
found floating near boat landing
along the front Of Harvey's Lake yes
terday, where she was last seen alive
on the night of July 4. In company
with Herbert Johns of this city. who
had been her sultor for the past two
years.
Another sutton OF the girl and ono
who may play an important role III
the case, is Harrison Cam, aged 90
years, Of this city, who is alleged TO
have entered into sporting agree
ment with Herbert Johns TO swim
Harvey's Lake. two and one.half miles
broad, the one first to accomplish the
feat to have the girls undivided ut,
tention without molestation IRON the
other.
Cam Is now being sought by the
authorities and his arrest is expected
to occur soon. He has been a FIRE.
quent caller at Harvey's Lake and has
: been known to be attentive to the
girl. He has only one arm and was
known among his friends as "Canny."
On the night OF July at 1880
O'Clock, Mrs. P. ]. Weckesser and Mrs.
s. 7. Nicholson, cottagers. heard
screams from the boat landing where
the body OF Miss Crispell was found.
Mrs. Weckesser today declared that
she thought the girl yelled, "Oh.
Charley but the county authorities
believe that because Cam was n rival
the cry might have been ooh, Canny.''
and that he possibly attacked the girl
after he had parted company with
Johns.
From the Crispell family was today
obtained a letter written by Johns
which helps build up the theory of
jealous rivalry. This letter was mail.
ed from here last Sunday, two days
after the girl was last seen alive.
While the letter is q sort OF an alibi
for Johns, the authorities believe that
II he really killed the girl he might
have written the letter TO cover up
his crime. In this letter Johns refers
to himself as "a fellow who can new.
er forget you, but the girl has forgot.
ten me; This statement seems to
, hint at quarrel over the presence of
rival for the girl'shand.
The body OF Alice Crispel will be
buried Thursday. Coroner Marley will
will conduct an inquest tomorrow AMI

state has forged about Herbert Johns
