MURDER OF TYPIST
DEATH SENTENCE IMPOSED. (United Press Assn.—Bj Telegraph—Copyright.) Rondon, March 9. Freedman has been sentenced to death for the murder of Annette Friedson. A pretty city typist, Annette Friedson, was murdered at the entrance to her office in Fore street, London, when going to work at 9 a.m. She was apparently attacked from behind. Her fur collar was pulled aside to bare her throat, which was slashed with a razor. The murderer escaped, though hundreds of people crowded the streets outside. Miss Friedson, however, was unable to utter a sound. Instead she stumbled for a couple of flights towards her own office, and then fell dead, a trail of blood bearing witness to her last desperate effort. The police searched for a man who was seen talking to Miss Friedson before the tragedy. Later it was announced that Maurice Freedman, aged 35, had been charged with tho murder of the girl.
