The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-07-20

In the end, 1t was the caretaker and his wife, with the justice who had married Peter and Helena and stayed on to visit with the care taker, who were of the most help. older and less confused, they met the emergency with a calm which none of the rest seemed to possess. Dimly, in the midst of her panic, Helena saw why this should be. Sandra Leigh's gang" young and impetuous - had rushed to Crest Mountain Lodge for pleasure. The wedding had further increased the degree of their comaradierie and excitement. When fate had struck suddenly. seemingly without reason, they were all too bewildered to meet the situation.
