GREENWICH. #131117.—
Thomas Birchain, of Davenport avenue, Green-
wich, holds by a thread the slight particle of evidence
that may prove the turning point in the case of James
O’Mahony, 2”], of New York city, self-confessed inur-
derer, who shot and instantly killed his fiancee, Miss
Beatrice Donnelly, pretty 28-year-old New York sten-
ographer, while they were walking on Indian Harbor
drive shortly after 6 o’clock Sunday evening. Birch-
am was about 1,000 feet from the scene of the shooting
and heard voices and the five shotsihat O'Mahonev
poured into the body of the girl. Bircham, who lives on
Davenport avenue. halfway between the railroad sta-
tion and the yacht~ciub was walking along the street
with his lanchbox under his arm. .
All seemed quiet along the shore of the harbor
which runs in by» the side of the road. Voices were
heard a distance ahead but Bircham was unible to as-
certain what was said at first. As the con la continued
to walk toward the Yacht club, he hea O’Mahoney
say: ,
“Are you coming?"
No,” answered the girl.
“Then, I’ll make you come,” then five shots, in quick
SUCCESSIOH.
In explaining what he heard, Mr. Bircham. who i:
a middle-aged man. stated that he thought that the
voices wereihose of two boys, as he had seen them in
that neighborhood a number of times with rifles. He
paid little attention to what he had heard and it was nOt
until later that he explained matters to Captain of the
Police Flanagan.
After the shnis nad tc:n fired. Bircbam told a Sen‘inel report-
‘r inst night that he raid no further attention in what had *-
currcd. lie saw U’Mahony pick the body of the girl up and drag
it into the “buds. where ii police lmv- found 3' ‘ the d"~ "
