IN THE AIR

For weeks an absorbing topic of interest, the "arunk murder mystery" reached an unexpected climax when Patricio Remedios confereed that he had murdered Mary Chun, the girl whose body was found in the trunk. In the centre of the picture above is shown the trunk in which the body was sent from Shanghai to Kobe, and spread out in front of it are the cotton bedcover and articles of clothing in which the remains were wrapped. Below the trunk is a photograph of the young confessed mur- darer, Patricio Remedios, in the top left-hand corner bis victim, and in the top rigas hand corner his brother Eululio, whom his statement would clear. In the lower corners are shown, Detective Sub-in- spector F. J. Willis (left) and Sub-Inspector H. Willgen, of the 9. M. Police, who had unravelled the baffling case after weeks of tireless investigation.
