Craved by love ends in murder in Leavenworth

Leavenworth Kansas July 11 The police court heard the case of William Parish who shot 19 year old Eva Curry wife of George Callahan then killed himself in a tragic double tragedy.

The letter details early hardship and a doomed love affair with Eva Curry, sister to a rival marriage, and ends with a plea for burial together in the same grave.
