Aid Probe of Five Deaths,
Including Three Girls

ALTOONA, Pa, Nov. 26 G.N.S) .
While every effort to identify a
man and woman found shot to
death in the lonely Spring Mea-
dow Station failed today, the pos
Sibility that the couple may be
linked with the death of three
children found near Carlisle, Pa.
was strenthened by developments
at Harrisburg.
There a picture of the woman
who was shot to death near Dun
cansville was shown Paul White,
driver of a bus which carried a
woman and three children into
Pennsylvania from New York last
week.
After studying the picture
closely, White said the woman ap-
pearing in the photograph looked
like the one who accompanied
the children on the New York to
Harrisburg run.

was blasted short time later.
Mr.. and Mrs. M. c. OakeS said
the woman was Mrs. Leona Forcy
of Lewistown, who formerly lived
with them while working in an
Altoona silk mill. State police
later announced they found Mrs.
Forcy at LeWiStown and she was
unable to aid them in the Solu-
ton of the mystery.
State police were convinced the
shooting was case of murder
and suicide. They clung to the
theory that the man fired two
rifle shots into the woman-one
into the breast and another into
the hip-and then Snuffed out
his life with a bullet through
the brain. The rifle lay on the
floor near the bodies when the
tragedy was discovered.
Clothing Marks Removed
All trade marks had been re-
moved from the clothing of the
penniless couple and nothing that
might lead to their identity could
be found.
