New Witness Links Perry to Waverley Murder Night
The Post reports a new witness, George Rogers of South Boston, corroborates Annie Albertson’s claim that Perry was in Waverley the night Agnes Morton was murdered. Rogers says a mulatto man loitered at the Waverley car station at 8 pm, then hurried away as Rogers approached. Police pursue Morton and McPhee cases, search for a stolen furnace shaker linked to Perry’s address, and argue over a chain found in Cambridge. Carl Johnson, who alleged Perry’s attack on a woman, was held for further examination.
