nounced today that two women held
in connection with the death of
Harry Wright, 40, had admitted run
ming over him with an automobile IN
an effort to collect his insurance.
Mrs. Martha Cliff, %, the prose-

she ran over Wright on Crumhorn

Mrs. Eva Coo. As, had hit him with
mallet.
Grant said Mrs. Coo also signed
statement similar in general to the
other, except that it denied the mur-

day it was committed.
The purpolted Cliff statement said
Mrs. Coo, proprietor of a roadhouse,
was the beneficiary under Wright's
life insurance policies to the extent
of $4,000 in case of death by acci-
dent.
The prosecutor will submit his in
formation to a special grand jury at
CooperstowlI Monday.
The purported statement said
Wright was lured into a car upon
the understanding that the women
were going up the mountain for shrub
berry to be planted about the road
house.
The women said that after the
attack on Wright they drove to a
point on the Oneonta Maryland
highway, where the body was thrown
in a ditch.
1t was found there later, and for
few hours authorities thought Wright
had been killed by hit-run driver.
