The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1913-03-28

there has been a constant rafting of
of the family skeleton in an effort to
shed light on the cause and manner Of
his death The coroners Jury re-
ported that the admiral had died from
arsenical poison Thereupon the wild
ow was arrested and lodged in Jail
at Plymouth to await trial on a charge
of murder. These are the only real
facts in the case made public No
hint has been dropped by the authori-
ties as to the possible motive for the
alleged crime. So far as public
knowledge goes no murder-if the
case proves to be a murder-was ever
committed with less motive for the
deed. At one time Admiral Eaton was
fairly well-to-do, but unfortunate in
vestments had cost him practically
all of his fortune. At the time of his
death he possessed practically moth
ing except his salary as a retired
naval officer which salary ceased
with his death. Why his wife or any
member of his family should take any
step that must necessarily cut off the
chief source of their income seems
incomprehensible.
Though the public has learned little
in regards to the so-called murder
case itself much has been brought to
light the past few days concerning
the life story of the woman who stands
accused of the killing of her husband.
The present Mrs. Eaton was the ad-
miraPs second wife and was formerly
the wife of D. II. Ainsworth, once a
clerk in the United States senate.
They had two children, June and Doro-
thy, but their married life was not al
together happy, and Mrs. Ainsworth
finally divorced her husband on the
ground of drunkenness. She met
Eaton, according to the story
made by the admiral several years ago,
in Chicago. He thought she was
widow, though as matter of fact she
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1913-03-28

had not at that time secured a di-
vorce Her father was George Harri-
son, and the family home was at Alex
andria, Va.
Admiral Eaton and Mrs. Ainsworth
were married in 1907 and came to
Massachusetts to live. The admiral
was commandant of the Boston navy
yard and after his retirement from
service the family went to live on a
small farm at Assinippi. During the
last few years of his life the admiral
had given up his clubs and forsaken
society altogether, devoting his atten-
ton to raising chickens.
AS to the family life of the cations
the statements of neighbors and
friends seem widely at variance. All
seem to agree, however, that the ad-
miral appeared to be unhappy in mind
and at times exceedingly morose. A
story has been circulated to the eff
feet that Mrs. Eaton, after her second
marriage continued to supply her first
husband with money and that this was
a cause for family discord. Mrs. Ea-
ton, however, vigorously denies the
truth of this story. Much more tangi-
bic is the story concerning the Eaton
baby, whose sudden death undoubted-
ly severed, for a time at least, the
friendly relations of the admiral and
his wife.
Nearly four years ago the child died
under unusual circumstances 1t de-
veloped then that this was an adopted
child and that a quiet deception had
been practiced upon relatives and
friends concerning its birth and ante
cedents. Mrs. Eaton openly charged
that the child had been poisoned and
that she suspected the admiral An
analysis of the stomach showed that
the child had died from natural causes
and reconciliation followed between
the Admiral and Mrs. Eaton.
A belief is gaining ground that Mrs.
Eaton may never be tried for murder.
The theory is that alienists will be
sent to examine her as to her mental
condition. Then she may be given a
public hearing as to her sanity, and
finally, if it should be determined that
she is of unsound mind, she might be
confined in an institution.

WOMAN Held
FOR MURDER
MRS. MAY HARRISON EATON IN
DlCTED FOR THE DEATH OF
HER HUSBAND.

Bosoton, Mass, March 2S.-The pre-
liminary hearing of Mrs, May Harri-
son Eaton, who is accused of the muir
der of her husband, Rear Admiral
Joseph G. Eaton, U. S. n, retired,
was conducted today at Bingham, but
1t failed to develop anything new in
the celebrated case. The hearing, in
fact was only perfunctory proceed
ing, since the action of the grand jury
in finding an indictment sends the
case directly to the superior court.
The extraordinary secrecy that has
attended every step of the official in
vestigation since Admiral Eaton died
has only served to whet the public
curiosity and arouse speculation as
to what is at the bottom of the case.
That the trial of Mrs Eaton is likely
to develop some big sensations is in
dictated by the statements of the Of
ficials who gathered the evidence
that resulted in her arrest. These
statements have all been to the same
effect-that some of the facts dis
closed as to the family life of the
Eatons were so peculiar as to prevent
the authorities from communicating
them to the public.
It will be four weeks tomorrow
since Admiral Eaton died suddenly at
his country home near the little town
of Norwell. During these four weeks
