started to force the filing OF Sc

action could result in maximum

AKRON, Ohio, Dec. l 0.N.SO.
The death two weeks ago of Albert
j. Albright, 45-year-old Massillon
banker, was formally written down
today as an unsolved mystery.
Coroner R. E. Amos returned a
formal verdict of death due to a
gunshot wound, method unknown"
Albright was found shot to death
in his wrecked automobile near
Akron, November 16, and intensive
investigation has been conducted
since that date in an effort to clear
up the case.
Puzzling features of the case
were that Albright'S body was

and no fingerprints were found on
the revolver that lay at his feet.
No motive was found to support
either suicide or murder theory.
