Returning to New Britain on July
Q. with her husband, who had learn
ed her whereabouts from DR.. HuX-
enthal of Boston, Mass, she contin-
ued to accept the attentions of Sam
uel while her husband was at work
on a night shift at the Stanley
Works. She finally told Samuel OF
her determination to cease relations
with him and conline her affections
to her husband, whcreupon Samuel.
according TO her statement, de-
then I will be the boss" but she did
not think he would go to the extent
OF murder His visits to her home
were made Monday and Thursday
evenings and it was on one of these
occasions that she told him he must
cease his attentions
Beer Party In Cellar
Last Saturday night. she and her
husband and Stehr drank the beer
that was made two weeks earlier
The batch amounted to about 80
quarts, and when they ended their
were eight bottles left in the cellar
The next morning, she found her
husband in agony in the yard. Even
then she did not suspect that his
brother had poisoned the beer, she
claimed.
Admits She Loved Samuel
Asked by Sergeant McCue If she
did not think 1t strange that Sam
uel should poison the beer, without
telling her. in view of the probable
ity that she would drink some of
1t, she replied simply that it was
strange. She admitted she loved
Samuel more than her husband, also
that the hatred between the broth
ers was SO great. to her knowledge
that her husband had forbidden her
to mention Samuel as his brother
For that reason, she said, she had
mentioned only Jacob and Michael
as her husbands brothers, at the
time of her husbands death. When
one OF the surviving brothers asked
her where Samuel lived. she told
him she did not know except that
his home was on Myrtle street.
When she and her sister, Mrs.
Stein, were in the cellar of the Cur
tbs street house Wednesday morn
ing and Mrs. STEMS husband came
in and declared that he would drink
some Of the home brew to prove
that 1t was not poisonous. Mrs.
Weiss warned him not to take the
risk, she said. She was expecting
that the police would take the beer
out of the cellar on account of the
fact that at least some of it had
been found to contain poison, she
said.
