SYDNEY, February 10, (Received February 11, at 8 a.m.) The police received information from a man at Bourkc, in the far west of New South Wales, that the murdered “ Pyjama Girl,” whose body is still preserved in formalin at Sydney University, was Jiis sister, named Gwen Garland. She was formerly in business in Sydney with a German importer of lingerie, whose photograph along with the girl he still possesses. She went to Albury in 1934, just before her murder was reported in September, 1934. He had refrained from communicating with the police in deference to the wishes of the girl’s parents, but he was now disclosing the secret owing to having sleepless nights.
