SUDE eR Remains Are: Discovered in Closet as Rites for Husband Are in Progress Below. ‘The mystery of the disappearance of Mrs. Henry Grill of Greenport, La L, was solved to-day in a ghastly way, Neichvors*nad assernbled for the funeral of Grilli, who committed geicide last Thursday. Ono of the DallBearers went to a closet on an wpper flogr to look for a piece of @loth, when he was startigd to dis- cover the body of Mrs. Griil, hud- @leG:Hehind a trunk at the back of the t, the back of her nead qhat- by a pistol bullet, ‘was @ prosperous tobacconist. He had been married more than years and was the father of three ehildten. During the winter he often accused his wife of being too fond of Henry Spiro of Patchogue. He threatened her. “My pistol,” he told her, “has two ‘Dullets—one for you and one for me!” ‘Thth Was last Tuesday, when Grilli wot @ warrant from Justice Griffin, @occusing Spiro of larceny. Spiro was arrested Wednesday, and was to be tried Thursday, but as Grilli did not eppedr to pressjthe charge Spiro was Aiecharged. ‘Wien the constable went to look for Grilli, he found he had shot himself dead, As Mrs. Grilli had told her friends she feared hér husband would whoot her, they made a vain search for her. 1t was thought strange none of her clothing was missing, so a search was made of the house, includ “ing the decp closet, but nothing was found. ‘The condition of the body indicated how. the tragedy occurred. The ‘woman had run to the big closet and erouched behind a tall trunk, evi. dently in the hope her husband in bi wild rage would not find her. How long she lay there trembling is not known, but he overtook her at last and Bent the bullet from close range erashing through her skull. ‘The Grilli: with frien PROF.

The reputation of Lillian Cook was everywhere found to be that of any good girl, She was rarely out in the evening save to attend business school, and her associations gave no indication whatever that her life was Rot what should have been. During the course of his prelimin- ary investigation Coroner Mix care. fully traced the life and affairs of the Girl, from the time she first met in Brooklyn the Dudley family, which afterward proved to be made up of Virginius Mayo, known ae James Dudley, Lois Waterbury, a New Haven girl, who called herself Mrs. James Dudley, the two children she bore Mayo and a third child whose mother has not yet ben named. The firat time the lives of Lillian Cook and the Dudieys crossed was three years ago. Then Lillian had registered in the Brooklyn Y. W. C. A. as an applicant for work. Lillian Cook saw an advertisement im @ Brooklyn paper requiring nurse, She answered it at the Y. W. C. A. and there learned of the Dudiey ‘houschold, to which she went with her mother and obtained the position of nuree to the three FATHER'S HOSPITAL BILLS WERE PAID BY MAYO. A short time after this Frank Cook, her father, was taken ill and removed to the Long Island College Hospital, where he went into the free ward for an operation. A few days later, much to his surprise, he was removed to @ private room and a private nurse placed in charge of him. He re- mained in the hospital for eight or nine weeks and all his bills there, he subsequently learned, were paid by Dudley, or Mayo. While Lillian was in the Dudley house her sister Laura visited her BRT OBLGES WITH SEATS BUT WARTS AEARNG President Denies Health Board’s Right to Prevent Overcrowding. President T. S.

Nearly all her Iffe Lilitan Cook had been of @ nervous disposition, but cheerful with it all. About the first particularly when she was at home in Brooklyn on aJa. 37 last. This, by the ‘way, was the last time her family caw her alive. She had intended going home on Feb, 22, but as there was work at the factory she could not leave New Haven. Of these attacks of me! and her repeated threats to kill herself ‘with poison or a bullet, testimony was given to Coroner Mix by Miss Ellen ‘Wilson, with whom Lililan roomed at the New Haven Y. W.C.

DISAPPEARED AND BODY WAS FOUND IN WEST ROCK, ‘Then a week ago last Thursday she @isappeared from office and home and &@ week later her body, with a black- ened hole through her left breast was found by a boy on West Rock. Coroner Mix has not been ale to determine when it was that Lillian Cook learned that Virginius Mayo and James Dudley were one and the same person but is inclined ta the be- Nef that it must have been while she was in Brooklyn or at least a short time before she accepted the position in Mayo's office in the Radiator fac- tory in New Haven. It is certain from his own state-|¥. ¥" ment, that Frank Cook, Lillian’s father, knew that Dudley was Mayo while in Brooklyn, although at first Cook maintained that he was un- aware of this until he came to New Haven after bis daughter's disap- pearance. Chief of Detectives Donnelly sald this afternoon that his investigation of the case ended with the Coroner’s| {i decision. VIOLINIST’S NAME USED IN A $600 FORGERY Joseph F.
