latest ripper case, IN
which Mrs. Edith Marshall Wilson,
pretty young church organist. tai
ented and described as a perfect
Gibson girl" was killed, was cleared
late this afternoon when George
Washington Knight, 4 22-year-olc
negro, was arrested. Police say he
made a complete confession.
Police declare he said he had been
infiamed by the consumption OF four
pints of gin. He had never seen
Mrs. Wilson before, he declared, and
when he left her he did not know
she was dead. The lifeless body of
the young church woman. who had
been separated from her husband,
was found early Sunday morning
within a stones throw of her hcIne,
her open umbrella partly concealins
the body.
Fearing violence against the ne
gro, police tonight removed him 10

he is being held under heavy guard

sicn of the grand jury will he called

knight was arrested after a street
car conductor, reading OF the muir
der, recalled that late Saturday
night a negro passenger bore blood
stains on his clothing. He notified
the police, and the negro was soon
taken into custody in a brick yard
in Keyport. N. ].
Authorities assert that knight,
after a severe grillfng, broke down
and. confessed he had throttled Mrs.
Wilson, dragged her unconscious
into a lot, and then beat her in the
back of the head with blackjack.
He told this story. according to
police:

Ridgewood, N. j., on Saturday night.
Three other negroes accompanied
me. We got off a car at State and
Smith streets and went into a store
and drank four pints of gin. We
then went outside. An argument
starred and / wandered away.
''I saw a young. good-looking
woman and i seized her by the
throat. She made no outcry. She
tainted In my arms. I dragged her
into the lot. She put UP a fight. but
I did not know I had killed her. !
left her IN the lot and took a car
back to my home town. ] did not

The three other men mentioned
in the confession have been arrested
and are being held as material wit
