JEALOUSY WAS
MOTIVE in NEGRO
1 SHOOTING WOMAN
ASsAILANT PLANNED TO
USE THREE SHOTS ON MAN
OF WHOM HE WAS JEAL.
GUS

"Cherchez la femme (''Look for
the woman"), say the French, but
in the case of Ernest Price, who
packed his kit to take with him
to Jail before looking for a wo-
man to shoot her, the saying
should be changed to read, Look
for the motive
The motive in Prices case was
jealousy, according to story told
Justice of the Peace Enrique Es-
quinaldo, Jr., this morning, and he
went to look for the woman,
though in a different way than
that meant by the French pro-
verb. Price went to look" to
shoot.
Eddie Brown, of whom Eddie
says Price was jealous, explained
to Justice Esquinaldo:
Il was in my room fhen / hears
Ernie talking in her room. She
says, How is you honey? Does
you bring me anything?'
Il sure hab. / brought along a
sixshooter. and it's got in it six bull
lets, three for you and three for
Eddie Brown. l hears the first
shot, and / amt craving to hear
any more. Says l to me, Eddie.

ever in all my lief called on my legs
to work so fast"
Brown is one of several wit
nesses who will testify against
Price when, he is given hearing.
