BEFORE

Sir Bernard Spilsbury examined the body (which was taken, still in the ottoman, to Brighton mortuary). It is understood he came to the conclusion that the woman had been murdered.

Superficial injuries and slight bruising on the body indicated that there had been a struggle. The woman was probably in a dazed condition when she was held down while the ties knotted round her throat.

MYSTERY PHONE CALL

were

Her husband, an electrical engineer's machinist, is believed to be in London. A telephone call to Scotland Yard stating that a woman's body would be found in the flat (the first fatimation of the tragedy) was made from a public call-box in the Borough High Street.

Letters found in the basement flat home of the young couple when examined by the police revealed thought addresses at which it was Badham might call. Police in vor- lous districts of London were asked to keep special watch on these places, and they made several calls.

Badham is believed to be short of money. The police think he may try to obtain work either as a fitter or in a cycle shop.

They issued
