Frederick, Nd. March Is-When her
husband, Arthur Z. English. a proni-
ncnt New York attorney and son OF
the late Thomas Dunn English, the su-
thor Of "Ben Bolt" threatened her with
n revolver, Mrs. Eloise Young English,
early this morning fired FIVE shots at
him from an automatic revolver. Two
Of the bullets lodged in the lawyers
head, causing almost instant death.
TIE killing occurred at the mountain
home Of the couple near Indian
Springs, three miles from Frederick.
A coroner's jury held here 20 night
e1onerated Mrs. English from blame
for the killing OF her husband, after
she and three Of her children had testi-
fed that English behaved with much
brutality toward his family and had
frequently threatened to take his wife's
life.
Mrs. English contends that she fred

a TT Of anger, drew revolver and
pointed it at her.
Ruth, a seven-yesr-old daughter, was
in tho room at the time OF thu shoot
ing, but was not struck By any OF the
bullets. After the act Mrs. English
took her four children and hastened
20 the nearest neighbors on the noun
tainside.
The smaller children were left at the
home Of Mrs. Minnie Crsbbs, while she
and her eldest son, Hugh, ran TO the
home Of Charles Simpson. about three
quarters of a mile away. Here Mrs.
English told of the affair and asked
for the use Of the telephone. She tele-
phoned to DR.. H. p Fshrney. in Fed
erick, TO hurry to the side Of her hus-
band. whom she said she had shot. She
then called Police Headquarters in
Frederick and asked that warrant be
sworn out for her husband, who, she
stated. had threatened TO take her life.
She also said that she had shot him.
Bullets Pierced Chin.
Mr. Simpson and his son. Henry
Simpson, az once went TO the English
home. which is a small stone structure
They found the body of English lying
on the floor in pool of blood. Beside
him was a .3S caIibre revolver. Two
bullets had pierced English's chin.
When Mrs. English was taken into
custody she would offer no explanation
except that she had shot her husband
in self-defence. after he had pointed a
pistol at her head
Since the shooting Mrs. English has
been under the care Of physician.
She is daughter Of the late McClin-

years ago. was a prominen, belle in
Frederick society.
II was generally known that her mar

separated several times and then start

lish's father they secured the little
property in the Catoctin Mountains
which has been thei. home for many
years past.
Ncighbors say that English treated
his wife badly. One neighbor asserts
that recently English was practically
insane and made life almost unbcarablo
for Mrs. English, threatening =, times
TO take her life.
