When the husband left his home Tuesday morning he noticed nothing unusual in the behavior of his wife, he says. He returned home at noon and found both front and back doors locked and went in through a window to find his wife and children either dead or severely wounded. The gun used is a 38-callber revolver belonging to Mr. Sohn. Woman Well Liked. Mrs. Sohn Is known throughout the neighborhood as a quiet woman and is well liked by all.
