WIDOW IS KILLED
 BY MARRIED MAN
He Then Turns Gun on Himself
 and May Die

San Francisco, Nov. 22.-Mrs. }etty King. widow of Lieutenant
 .obert King, U. s. N, came to the
 nd of turbulent love affair here
 aturday night when she was shot death by George w. Barnett, an
 utomobile salesman, who trailed fer from Minneapolis.
 Yesterday Barnett's life was hang ng by a slender thread as result # a bullet wound which he inflicted n his head ofter he killed Mrs, King, while seated across. from her 1t dinner, in a downtown Restaurant. Barnett is married and has a laughter.
 Mrs. King, whose husband was killed in an automobile accident in Dorchester, Mass, in 1922. met Bar nett in Minneapolis about a year ago.
 "They fell in love-" Police Detec- tive Everett Hansen said in a re- port yesterday. Wishing to free herself from any entanglement, Mrs. King came to San Francisco. Bar nett followed and obtained employ ment with an automobile firm here. I understand he desired the com panionship of Mrs. King until such time as his wife in Minneapolis ob- tained a divorce.
 Mrs. Kings identity was estab lished through letters in her reticule. One of these letters was stamped and addressed 10 Barnett in Min neapolis. It contained messages of love but spoke of his former letters as having been incoherent."
 After Barnett located Mrs. King in San Francisco he. took quarters in the same hotel where Mrs. King lived. When she refused to receive him he forced the lock on her door and was expelled from the hotel. Later he apoIogized to the manage ment and occupied quarters in an adjoining downtown hotel.
