fessionally. Marshall confessed that he ]
had cut up the body. but sssadfastly
denied he had killed her.
ADMITS Staying.
The first confession, however. did
not satisfy authorities. particularly
that part wherein he said that the
woman drank poison because a wealthy
New Yorker with whom she was in
love had Tilted her. After much mors
questioning he suddenly shouted late
last night:

less he gave her more money.
