CONWAY, Gertrude Shannon

MURDER in WESTERNPORT: ~ Mrs. Frank Conway Shot Dead By Her Husband. Frank J. Conway; Relations Between Two Residents of South Cumberland.
About seven o’clock last night much excitement was created in this community when it was learned that Frank J. Conway had shot and instantly killed his wife in front of the Lutheran Church in Westernport. It appears that Mrs. Conway came up to Piedmont Wednesday afternoon and her husband Thursday afternoon and that they met and had some words in Piedmont early in the evening. When they met again, Mrs. Conway was in the company with a man named Turner and the husband shot her with a .32 caliber revolver, the bullet passing through her right lung and heart. The body was removed to the Council Chamber in Westernport and after a chase Turner was arrested and placed in the lock-up. The murderer escaped but gave himself up to the authorities in Cumberland this morning. An inquest is being held this morning by Coroner Conner of Cumberland and the State’s Attorney is in attendance. Conway was for several years the proprietor of a saloon on Virginia Avenue, South Cumberland. He is a man of about 32 years of age. He sold out his place of business and went to Pittsburgh where he secured a position in a barber shop some weeks ago. Mrs. Conway was formerly Miss Gertrude Shannon and was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Shannon, Cumberland. She was married a few years ago to Conway but harmony did not prevail between the two and at one time an action for divorce was filed but was afterwards withdrawn as reconciliation was affected. Two small children survive the mother. Up until a few weeks ago Mr. and Mrs. Conway resided on Woodside Avenue when again relations between them became strained and they parted.
