CALENS - FOUND IN BOSTON Dol Subetantaid Tt Ses- pecid Narderer I n Cumai Boston, Jan. 29 (UP)—Belief that Christopher Cullen, 36 year old war veteran, fled te Canada after thc brutal slaying of his fi ay bride at Hingham Friday, substan- tisted today when his automobile was discovered in a garage only two blocks from North station. Police believed that Cullen drove immediately to this city after the crime, parked his Chevrolet coach at the North Terminal garage on Com- mercial street, north end. and boarded a train for Canada at the nearby station. Among various articles found in ilie automobile, most of them scat- tered about the floor of the machine, was the .22 calibre Winchester model 1590 rifle with which Cullen is al- loged to have slain his bride, Mrs. Cora E. (Jacques) Cullen, 39, only iive days after their marriage. When Cullen purchased this gun for Eugene Hutchinson, Jr., of Wey- mouth, shortly before the murder, he also bought & box of 50 cartridges. ‘The box was discovered in the auto- mobile but it contained only 21 cartridges. Find Purse Mrs. Cullen’s pocketbook, missing when her bullet-riddlcd body was found in a snow-covered cornfield at the end of a lovers’ lane in Hing- ham, was lying on the floor of the tonneau. The pocketbook, of grey leather, | contained 81 cents, a turquoise ring, & jade ring, a white sapphire ring, & string of rosary beads, a thimble, & box of rouge, six religious cards, | a prayer book, two 2-cent stamps, a lipstick, nine safety pins, a re- ligious medal, a box of nail pelish, two nail files, & mirror and a blank cnvelope, It also contained a furniture list, which probably had guided her when she made recent purchases for her “honeymoon flat” at East Wey- mouth; a list of birthday dates. sales slips bearing the name of her sis- ter, Mrs. Bertha Murphy of Lowell; und a receipt from a Lowell dentist. Among other articles that the pocketbook contained were a box of aspirin tablets, an employe's card Learing Mrs. Cullen's name, a re- cefpt from a second Lowell dentist, n letter addressed in her maiden name, and an envelope of the Lowell “‘ooperative bank on the reverse side of which was written in pencil, “Jack Boxwell, 771—17 North Billerica.” Road Map On the floor of the car was a road map of northern New England and Quebec, recalling several recent trips which Ct n had made to Canada. An old raccoon coat, belleved that which Cullen was wearing when he left East Weymouth with his bride last Friday on their last ride to- gether, also was discovered in the machine. Police believed he had abandoned this to make his identi- fication more difficult. Two robes, one of fur and one of cloth, covered the various articles found on the floor of the tonneau. [ndications were that Cullen had nsed the robes in an effort to con- ceal the rifle. With the rifle, police found a gun case and a yamrod. Cullen drove his car to the North Terminal Garage at 1:15 p. m. Fri- day. As it is estimated that Mrs. Cullen was slain about 45 minutes after leaving home with her hus- band Friday morning, authoritics believed that Cullen drove from Hingham to the Boston garage di- rectly after the murder. Own Name Strangely enough, although Cul- len signed his own name to the gar- age register, his automobile, for which police throughout this scc- tion of the country had been search- I¢’s Growing!

Early tdday, garage attaches dis- covered that the registration num- ber on the Chevrolet coach corres- ponded with that which had been breadcast in the hunt for the fugi- tive husband. They notified the Hanover street police station and Sergeant Morris Sullivan went to the garage and in- vestigated. Garage employes ex- plained that only an oversight on their part had prevented police be- ing notified sooner of the presence of the car. Two earlier theories as to Cullen's whereabouts were exploded by the discovery of his automobile. A young woman had reported see- ing a Chevrolet coach about a mile from the scenc of the crime in Hingham early yesterday. later a Concord, N. H., doctor reported see- ing & man resembling Cullen on a northbound train which left Boston at 7:35 a. m. Authorities had believed that after being seen by the young wom- | an, Cullen might have driven to Boston and boarded the train in the hope of escaping to Canada. But the fact that his car was left at the gar- age Friday afternoon definitely re- futed both these reports.
