Cut Bank People
In Double Tragedy;
One Homicide Case

Brutally stabbed to death, in
which her assailant inflicted 30
wounds in her mead, breast and
back with BARRIERS scissors. the
body of Ruth Taylor, %, Cut
Bank waitress. was found on the
kitchen floor of Joe kennedy's
apartment in the Cook building
there Tuesday morning when
officers went there in quest of
information 10 connection with
the death of Kennedy, whose
mangled body was found in the
Great Northern yards t hree
hours earlier, the latter having
been run over by west und
passenger train No. 81 as it
pulled out of the Cut Bank sta
ton.
With evidence at the coroner's
inquest held Wednesday after
noon discriminating Kennedy of
the woman's death, it is believed
that he mad boarded the blind in
an effort to avoid apprehension
and had fallen beneath the train.
This was the verdict of the jury
which investiged both deaths.
The body was found 200 yards
west of the railway crossing, the
right leg having been severed
Immediately below the knee and
the left near the ankle.
Witnesses testimony at the
inquest on the woman's death
brought out that she and Ken
nedy had quarreled Saturday
evening. Circumstantial evil
dence showed that Kennedy in
drunken fury had attacked the
woman with the scissors in the
bedroom and after having in
flicted the wounds had dragged
her into the kitchen, where she
had lain in agony for several
hours, life having gradually ebbeG
from the effects of hemorrhage.
