Seventeenth avenue address J'wr about

The finding of the pmall red hook
on religious topics, nenr the dead ho ly
of Mrs. Smith, was the first clew to
the establishing of Greek's motive.
According to Mrs. Greek, who Is in
n delicate condition, her husband und
Mrs. Smith had spent long hours Mon
day afternoon poring over the con
tents of this book. Certain passages
which apparently impressed Greek
were market! with a pencil.
One oi those marked passages is:
"We have made a covenant with
death, and with hell are we ut agree
ment. Is, SJS.lft."
Temporary insanity, brought about
by religious fanaticism, was given at
police headquarters Wednesday as the
reason for the shooting to death Mon
thly afternoon of Mrs. Mury Smith, 71
years oM, by l hilip Greek. 30 veurs
old, in the presence of his wife, Mrs.

times displayed nn extremely nervous '
temper oi a violent fort. I

glad that I did it. By lulling her, 1 ;
savetl three souls from destjuction.
Chief of Police Armstrong said that
he believes Greek is mentally unbal
anced at times and that the shooting
was due to a midden attack of a tio-
lent insanity.
