This means. officials said, that all note

Bodies of Girl,
Is, and Man, IS,
Found in Wood
Suicide Pact Seen in Deaths Ot
Worldly One and COun-
try Lass.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-The tragic
romance of a wealthy man OF the world
and a country miss was unfolded here
today through investigation OF the deaths
Of ]. Ford Thompson, traveller and ar
tist, and Mary Sneeringer, pretty wait
ress.
While Washington police spread drag
net TO catch Thompson on a charge of
abducting the girl. the bodies Of the As
year-old man and the pretty 16-year-old
girl were found in the woods near En-
mittsburg, Nd. not far from here.
Both had been shot through the head
and nearby lay two revolvers and an
open book Of sonnets.
This ended a search which began when
the~couple. after leaving the Slagle ho-
tel in Emmittsburg. where the girl was
a waitress, had failed to return from
stroll
That was Wednesday night
The girls aunt, who operates the ho-
tel, searched Mary's room and found
notes which hinted vaguely at her going
away, but whether these notes referred
TO suicide or TO plans for an elopement
with Thompson could not be determined.
Thompson, rich and with nothing to
do, met the girl this spring when he
moved from Washington to Maryland.
He oftea spoke TO his friends about
Mary, telling If plans to educate her.
The girl apparently returned his afTec-
tion.
But her relatives objected to Thomp-
son because OF the disparity in ages
and also because Thompson was married.
HIS wife some years ago obtained n
legal separation from him and now lives
| In France with their 11-year-old child,
according to Information here.
Thompson and the girl continued TO
meet. however, in spite OF objections.
Last week the girls relatives told
Thompson to stay away.
when he and Mary disappeared Mary's
relatives notified Maryland authorities
and Washington police TO apprehend
Thompson on a charge Of abduction
The two apparently went To the lonely
spot in the woods where their bodies
were found ana killed themselves.
Police believe they agreed 10 die to
gether because Of their hopeless romance
Thompson was a son OF DR.. J. Ford
Thompson. widely known Washington
surgeon.
