    (Newspaper Account)

    Ms. Porphyria Blank, 21, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Blank, of Barton Park, was found strangled this
    morning in the cottage owned by John Doe, 25, who was apprehended on the scene of the crime
    by officers Bailey and Hodge. Doe was found holding the body in his arms, and appeared to be in
    stupor, his only reply to repeated questioning being, “I killed her because I loved her.”

    According to the members of the Blank family, Doe had paid attention to Miss Blank for the last several
    months, though it was strenuously denied that his regards for Miss Blank was returned. Miss
    Blank’s engagement with Mr. Roger Weston was announced last month. Mr. Weston could not be
    reached for a statement. Mrs. Blank was prostrated by the news of her daughter’s death.

    The slain girl vanished last evening at approximately eleven o’clock from a dinner party given at her
    parent’s home in honour of the approaching wedding. The family became alarmed when it was
    discovered that she was not in her room, and instituted a search for her about midnight. The police,
    who were promptly notified, in the course of their search knocked at Mr. Doe’s cottage, a building
    some quarter of a mile from the Blank estate, at five in the morning. Receiving no answer, they
    forced the door and discovered Doe sitting with the dead girl in his lap. She had apparently been
    strangled, Dr. A. P. Reynolds, Autopsy Surgeon for the county, state that, from the condition of the
    body, death must have occurred at about midnight.
