Ambridge, Woodlawn, Sewickley, Coraopolis and McKees Rocks residents were forced to desert their homes or take to the upper floors. Downtown the pumps were working in most of the hotels, theatres and office buildings. Business was nearly at a standstill. Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of store goods was ruined. The Exposition Music Hall was holding four feet of water.
In the middle of the morning, when he was deep in his correspondence, his wife called him up to say the enterprising Mrs. Post had telephoned some musical friends in Sewickley and had found that two hundred folding-chairs were to be placed on the stage of the concert-hall, behind the piano, and that they would be on sale at noon. Would he please get seats in the front row?
The laughter of a wrought-up crowd always seems to me half hysterical. "Have you seen photographs of the scar on the body found at Sewickley? Or the body itself?" "No, I have not." "Will you describe the operation?" "I made a transverse incision for the body of the name, and two vertical ones one longer for the J, the other shorter, for the stem of the h. There was a dot after the name.
"Have you examined the body washed ashore at Sewickley?" "Yes " in a low voice. "Is it the body of Jennie Brice?" "I can not say." "Does the remaining hand look like the hand of Jennie Brice?" "Very much. The nails are filed to points, as she wore hers." "Did you ever know of Jennie Brice having a scar on her breast?" "No, but that would be easily concealed." "Just what do you mean?"
Parsons, though they add little to the volume of composition, a thing for which any one should be thanked on some considerations, yet add great dignity to their profession in this country. Arthur, a younger brother of Ethelbert Nevin, shows many of the Nevinian traits of lyric energy and harmonic color in his songs. He was born at Sewickley, Pa., in 1871.
That is the last entry in the note-book for that day. Mr. Holcombe called me in great excitement shortly after ten and showed me the item. Neither of us doubted for a moment that it was Jennie Brice who had been found. He started for Sewickley that same afternoon, and he probably communicated with the police before he left. For once or twice I saw Mr.
If I let the two children in the dining-room have fifteen big moments, instead of five, who can blame me? The next day was the sensational one of the trial. We went through every phase of conviction: Jennie Brice was living. Jennie Brice was dead. The body found at Sewickley could not be Jennie Brice's. The body found at Sewickley was Jennie Brice's. And so it went on.
Anyhow, during those days her gem of a husband was in jail. He was freed Thursday night, and from that time until his rearrest on the following Tuesday, I had him under observation every moment. He left the jail Thursday night, and on Saturday the body floated in at Sewickley. If it was done by Ladley, it must have been done on Friday, and on Friday he was in view through the periscope all day!"
Heaven knew he never went to concerts, and to be mounted upon the stage in this fashion, as if he were a "highbrow" from Sewickley, or some unfortunate with a musical wife, was ludicrous. A man went to concerts when he was courting, while he was a junior partner. When he became a person of substance he stopped that sort of nonsense.
They were in vaudeville together, on the Keith Circuit. They were known as The Pair of Bellows." I sat up at this for John Bellows had boarded at my house. "Mr. Bellows is dead?" "I think not. She divorced him." "Did you know of any scar on your sister's body?" "I never heard of one." "Have you seen the body found at Sewickley?" "Yes" faintly. "Can you identify it?" "No, sir."
