Cause of Murder-MOther
One of Trio Indicted
HUSBAND TO DEFEND WIFE
Lad Found Strangled In Barn August
20, Last, Causes Grand Jury To
Indict Three Persons With
First Degree Murder.

Catskill, N Y.-Indictments against
three persons, charging them with
murder in the first degree in connec-
tion with the death of Howard Roth
enberg, aged Z, found strangled near
Windham on August 29, last, were
handed down by the Greene county
grand jury.
The persons indicted are: Mrs. Rose
Rothenberg. mother Of the murdered
boy; Mrs. Esther Lift, sister of Mrs.
Rothenberg, and Burtsall Branough,
scion of a wealthy family of Wind
ham.
The states theory of the motive in
the Staying, according to statements
of District Attorney Charles G. Coffin,
is that Howard stumbled upon an in
trigue when he entered the Branaugh
barn and was killed to prevent him
from telling what he had seen.
The boys death is believed to have
occurred in a barn on the Branaugh
estate, around 6 o'clock in the morn
ing. Howard's body, with his hands
tied behind his back, strip of cloth
knotted tightly about his neck, and a
gag tied across his mouth, was not
discovered until five hours later.
1t is believed the indictment of Mrs.
Rothenberg was based upon the tes-
timony Of Mrs. Joseph Howard of
Windham, who told Of having seen
Mrs. Rothenberg near the Branaugh
barn on the morning of the murder,
some hours before the time that Mrs
Rothenberg claims to have left the
house.
When the indictment was read
Charles Rothenberg, former wealthy
hat manufacturer of Newark, and
father of the dead boy, appeared
dazed. Then he exclaimed:
It's a damnable travesty upon JUS
tice. 1 shall fight to clear my wifes
name, if it takes a lifetime"
