New York'Two mysterious slay
ings and. written threats to mas
sacre fourteen more Victims have
terrorized the entire city and sent
1,000 New York detectives dragnet
ting the city in the most extensive
and frenzied man-hunt in years.
All the searchers know of the
killer is that he is well educated, a
religious maniac who imagines him
self the executioner for an interna
tionel secret society and seeks his
prey from among spooning couples
who park their automobiles in lone
ly sections of Long Island.
His first victim was Joseph Mo
zynsky, College Point, L. I., grocer
and father of six children, who was
shot to death on a deserted road
near Whltestone as he sat in his
car talking to nlneteen-year-old
Catherine May, whom the police
allege was his sweet heart.
Miss May’s story of the astonish-,
ing murder was so fantastic that
she was held in $50,000 ball as a
l
material witness. However, when a]
few nights later Noel Sowley, a
wealthy radio mechanic, was killed
In Identical circumstances near the
State Insane Asylum In Creedmoor,
Police Commissioner Mulrooney ac
cepted'both crimes as the work of
the same brain-twisted fanatic.
with Sowley when he was slain
was Betty Ring, pretty 17-year-old
daughter of a city policeman. Miss
Ring's tale of the crime and de
scription of the killer tallied with
Miss May’s.
As soon as he had time, the hom
icidal lunatic penned and mailed an
almost Incoherent letter written In
code to the New York Evening
Journal. This missive announced
the second crime and promised a
third killing in College Point at 10
o'clock the following evening.
It added that a dozen more mur
ders would follow unless some val
uable documents were returned to
the international secret society.
Miss Ring told the police that
she and Bowley were in his automo
bile when a shadowy form sidled
out of the darkness, and demanded
Sowley’s license. Before the radio
mechanic could answer, the strang
er drew a gun and fired two bul
lets into his head, killing him in
stantly.
Next, at the point of his 6tM
smoking gun, he forced the terri
fied girl to sign her name and ad
dress and said he would kill her,
too, if she told the police anything
about the shooting.
Miss Ring, like Miss May, was
then compelled to walk with the
slayer for almost a mile, where he
put her on a bus. Just before leav
ing her, the killer asked her to kiss
him. Aside from that she said she
was not molested.
Both girls furnished the police
with excellent descriptions of the
murderer.
