C* TUESDAY, MARCH 3, 1908. $1*80 A YEAR. VERNIE SHERIDAN HAS RETURNED. YOUNG WOMAN WISHES TO CLEAR HER NAME- H«r Testimony Was Largely Instru mental in Causing Conviction of George Hasty. The following is from a recent Is sue of the Columbia State: “Miss Verne Sheridan, who was the principal witness again George Hasty, now serving life sentence for having billed Milan Bennett and Ab bott Davison at Gaffney, December 15, 1905, ha« been heard from. Miss Sheridan, Miss May Bishop, Davison and Bennett were members of the “Nothing But Money’’ company play ing in small towns. Hasty was a clerk at a hotel kept by his brother. “The testimony showed that he had annoyed the young women in an offensive manner. When Mr. Davison remonstrated with Hasty, the latter killed Mir. Bennett and Mr. Davison. Hasty was tried for the murder of Bennett and was convicted. He was never tried for killing Davieon. “Some time ago the Savannah pa pers published sensational stories ac cusing Miss Verne Sheridan with having participated in the stealing of some violins In that city. The Sa vannah Press of Monday evening gives an interesting story of Miss Sheridan's denial of the allegations made against her. “The headlines of the article state: ‘Miss Sheridan says she did not steal pupils’ violins; accuses her partner, PrcT. Leible, of theft.” Miss Sheri dan’s letter to the Savannah authori ties Is not published, but The Press says of the matter: " ‘Declaring that she was innocent of the charge of the theft of six vio lins from her former Savannah pu pils, with which she was charged, Miss Verne E. Sheridan, a pretty and attractive young actress and music teacher, who disappeared from Savan nah last June, has written to the chief of police offering to come back and clear her name. “ ‘The letter, which was received yeaterday, says that Miss Sheridan is now in New York, where she has returned, after an extended trip to Prance. Miss Sheridan says she only learned of the charges against her when she arrived in New York a few days ago and found waiting there for he r a letter containing clippings from the Savannah papers telling of the robbery, pawn tickets for the stolen llins, and letter confessing the from Prof. John A. Leible, her ier in the school here, with whom disappeared from Savannah. The received by the chief of police yesterday contained the pawn tickets for the six violins. Would Come Back. “ ‘Miss Sheridan says she was over whelmed at the accusation contained In the stories connecting her with the robbery of the violins and desires to at once establish her innocense by doing anything in her power. She of fers to come back to Savannah to stand trial and says she will as soon as possible send money to^ cover the expense connected with having the violins returned to their owners. “‘She says she left Savannah sud denly, having made up her mind to do so some time before. She had communicated her intentions to Prof. Leible and he declared he would fol low her if she left. So they went to MAoon. This part of the story is known to be true as the police traced the couple to Macon, after their de parture was made known by the re port to the police by the parents of the children whose instruments were missing. After leaving Macon, she •ays, she went to New York and then •ailed for Paris, returning only a few days ago to become aware of the theft by finding the letter at her New York address. Pawned In Jerssy city* “The pawn tickets snow that the violins were pawned In Jersey City and Hoboken on July 8, 9, 12. They have bean sent on today in an effort to recover the violins. The matter has been taken up with the owners of the violins and Miss Sheridan’s of fer to come back to Savannah is be- *1. considered. It is not thought probable that she will be brought back in the face of her statement In regard to the matter and the mani fest Impossibility of securing a con viction, even were the Savannah peo ple interested desirous of securing one. “The story was one which greatly interested Savannahians at the time. The couple disappeared as if the earth had swallowed them up after they were traced to Macon, notwithstand ing their pictures and descriptions of them were scattered broadcast by the police and a reward was offered for them. ' “'Miss Sheridan and Prof. Leible Savannah In October pre- their disappearance. They had been members of an opera com pany which played in several Georgia cities and went to pieces in Americus. The pair secured rooms on Tattnall street In adjoining houses. The pro fessor moved after one day’s stay in his room and Miss Sheridan after be ing cautioned about keeping late hours moved also. They later occu pied room adjoining their conserva- tory at 24 Broughton street west. ‘^‘The pupils whose violins were •lost are the following: " 'Willie Wiser, who lives at 842 west Broad street; Frank Richard son who lives at 312 Tattnell street; Joe Risolio, who lives at Barnard and Oglethrope avenue; Louis Langley, who lives at 550 Taylor east; Sam Buschbaum, who lives at 621 west Broad street, and Heine Silverman, who lives at Pine and west Broad rrreets. ^ ‘ t Clever Ruse. “ ‘Several weeks rpeceeding the disappearance of the pair and the loss of the violins, the instructors an nounced a contest among the pupils. A prize wag to be given to the hoy who, without any help from the teachers, would best play a solo learn ed by themselves. The last Friday in June was announced as the date of holding the contest. “ ‘After It was through Miss Sheri dan suggested that the’bovs ought to be given some ice emm and an ad- I ior.rnment was taken to a nearby soda lwater fountain. Some of the boys i started to take their violins, but Prof. Leible suggested that they he left, 1 rind this was done. “About the time the drinks were I served Miss Sheridan got up and left i and the professor tossed a coin to see who should have her drink. One of the boys won. The party broke up late in the afternoon, and none of I them went back to the conservatory after their violins. “ ‘One of the boys went to the 1 place the next day and found the doors locked and could get no answer. This i started an investigation and some of I the parents reported the matter to the police. The services of a locksmith jwere secured to open the door. Only i bare walls confronted the searchers, with the exception of a piano and a writing desk, which had been left be hind. Mordecai & Strozier, furniture dealers, stated that the furnishings of the room had been provided by them and h balance of $60 was still due them. “ ‘Previous to his disappearance it i wa 8 learned that the professor b r shaved off his imperial moustache.
