WOUNDED GIRL IDENTIFIES
WARD AS KILLER OF GROSH

William b. Ward negro, was posi-
lively identified by Miss Maxine Nc
Nelly Sunday as the assailant who
shot her twice, after brutally murder
ing Ted Grosh, her escort, near Globe
early on the morning of December 26.
Absolutely, without any question,
he is the man who shot Ted Grosh," !"
was Miss McNelly's declaration when
Ward was brought before her in the
library of the state penitentiary, re-
iterating the identity she had declar-
ed when shown a picture of Ward
which had been published several
weeks ago.
Ward persisted in his denial of the
crime, declaring that Miss McNel1y
was mistaken. The negro was on the
verge of collapse at the end of the
interview, according to Warden r. B.
Sims of the penitentiary, and it was
necessary to give bodily assistance in
returning to his cell. Ward is being
held in the state penitentiary for safe
keeping to await his trial.
Miss McNelly was also unnerved by
the experience, and it was 80 minutes
before she had fully regained her COM
posure. 1t was the first time that she
has confronted the negro held in the
case, her condition having been such
that attending physicians feared to
bring the suspect before her. 1t was
uncertain for days after she was
wounded whether she would recover.
