LETTERS CONTAIN SECRET OF TRAGEDY MILTON WOMAN GIVES REASON' FOR AWFUL DEED Letters Were Directed to Members of tho Harper Family Intimacy Had Developed Into Serious Complica tions, Locked securely in the vaults in the office of County Treasurer Brad ley are four or five letters which con tain the secret of the terrible tragedy enacted at Milton Wednesday morn ing in which Joe Harper and Mrs. Nannie Myrtle Kyle both died, the one a murdered man and the other a suicide. Despite every effort to keep the existence of these letters from the public, the secret has leaked out and the motive which Impelled a woman to deliberately kill a man and then take her own life has become known. In these letters, three of which were addressed to members of the Harper family, the woman had set down the reason for her deed and It was as or ig.nally surmised. The two victims of the tragedy had known each other for several months, an intimacy had developed which was attended by nu merous clandestine meetings with the result that the woman was soon in a condition hat made discovery of their relations only a matter of a short t'me. She had secured a divorce and It is believed that Harper had promised to do likewise but had fail ed to keep his promise. Unable to withstand the disgrace which must soon be hers, she had resolved upon ending both her own life and that of her betrayer. letters Are Vindictive. The letters were written on the night before the tragedy and all were the same. At least it is supposed that all were alike for the only two of which were lead were identical. They were couched in a spirit of bitter vin dictiveness and give evidence of a state of mind bordering on insanity. The letters fere found by County Commissioner H. M. Coskburn who, together with Coroner Ralph Folsom, Deputy District Attorney Pruitt and four of the Milton jurymen, broke open two of the letters and read the contents. So bitter was the wordiing that the seven men decided that it would be cruelty to deliver them to the persons to whom they were ad dressed and determined to maintain silence concerning the letters and the contents. Such secrecy proved impossible, however, and last night the news leaked out in Milton. Both Coroner Folsom and Deputy District Attorney Pruitt admit the finding of the letters but refuse to discuss the contents be yond confirming the reports as to the motive of the crime.
