NURSE ALLEGED
IN QUARREL WITH
MRS. EASTLAkE
Former Landiady In Baltimore
Tells Of Break in .
. Friendship. sse'

BALTIMORE, Oct. 1.-Reveiation
made here today by Mrs. H. A. Nc
Monigal. 1113 East North avenue, may
throw some light on the murder yes
terday Of Mrs Roger d. Eastlake, at
Colonial Beach. Va. Miss Sarah Knox,
friend Of the Eastlakes, and now held
in the Westmoreland county jail with
Eastlake in connection with the crime,
boarded with Mrs. McManigal for sew
eral years.
Miss Knox, according to the land
lady, il forty-five years Of age, and
has been much in demand as train
ed nurse.
A graduate OF the Johns Hopkins
Hospital, class of 1895, Miss Knox had
always followed her course as a train
ed nurse. For the last fourteen years
she lived in Baltimore.
Some years ago-Mrs. McMontgal
was not able to furnish details-Miss
Knox met the Eastlakes and became
a close friend Of Mrs. Eastlal1e, from
whom she received a letter daily.
Two years ago, Mrs. McMonigal
said, Miss Knox inherited a consider
able sum Of money, which she invest
ed in stocks and bonds. Only yes
terday there arrived from the Southern
Pacific railway a dividend check for
Miss Knox.
About eighteen months ago, Mrs.
McAlonigal said, Miss Knox told her
that Mrs. Eastlake was coming to
Baltimore to have some dental work
done. She engaged an extra room in
which to entertain Mrs. Eastlake as
her guest.
Going to Colonial Beach to accom-
pany Mrs. Eastlake' back to Balti-
more, Miss Knox remained away a
few days and returned alone. She ex-
planned that she and Mrs. Eastlake
had had a quarrel and that she would
never see her again. A photograph Of
Mrs. Eastlake which had hung on the
wall in Miss Knox's room was taken
down.
When Mrs. McMonigal received a
letter last week from Miss Knox, dated
Ocean City, N. J., saying that she was
going to Colonial Beach to SEQ Mrs.
Eastlake, the landlady believed there
had been O. reconciliation. Miss Knox
wrote that she would stop over in
Baltimore. She changed her plans,
however. and went direct to Colonial
Beach, arriying there Wednesday Of
last week.
Friends Of Miss Knox here do not
believe she knew anything about the
murder Of Mrs. Easriake. The nurse
had been one Of the most active mem
bers Of the John HoplStss Nurses
Club since her graduation, and was
well liked at the hospital.
