HEARST'S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, 0A„ SUNDAY. AUGUST 24, 1013. 3 D Divorced Wife of Millen Judge, Who Killed Him and Yourrg Bride, Shows No Remorse. Planned Shooting With Care. Trouble Alleged to Have Started Twenty Years Ago Over Prison er's Property—Jurist Is Said to Have Slain Brother-in-Law. MILLEN, Aug. 23.—Convinced that she has been an instrument of jus tice, satisfied that the work she had planned for days has been well per formed, Mrs. Edna Perkins Godbee, in her cell in the Jenkins County jail, to-day calmly and confidently awaits the hour when she will face a court to answer to the law for the slaying of her former husband. Judge Walter M Godbee. and the bride who had taken the slayer’s place in his affections. Mrs. Godbee saw life pass from the body of the man with whom she had lived for years, and there was no re morse shown on her face. While im prisoned for his slaying she was told that she must also answer to the charge of having murdered hjs wife. She did not blanch. She had determined on the death of both. She had planned her deed care fully. She believed that she wa* jus tified in resorting to arms to avenge her real or fancied wrongs. and per sons who know her best declare she is ready to meet the consequences. No pfFort to obtain bail has been ..made by her. She has waived the right of preliminary trial. She Is con tent to remain in jail until her time of trial comes. Started Twenty Years Ago. The attitude of this woman, who has passed her fiftieth year, is one of the most remarkable features of this remarkable tragedy. Twenty years ago. when Judge God bee and his second wife found they were mismated, the foundation for the double slaying was laid. The cli max came Monday mornir^ in the Millen postoffice, when Judge Godbee was almost instantly killed and his young wife fatally wounded by pistol shots fired by the woman from whom he had been separated by the courts. Roth Judge Godbee and the woman hHd as his slayer are of prominent Jenkins County families. Godbee had been prominent in politics. He had been married three times. His first wife died many years ago, but, at his request, he is buried at her «ide in the cemetery at Waynes boro. Soon after her death he mar ried Miss Edna Perkins, daughter of the late Mills Perkins, and heiress to considerable property. They lived In apparent happiness until the early nineties, when the first signs of trouble came. At this time Judge Godbee acquired rights to cer tain properties which belonged to uis wife before their marriage. It Is charged that the judge afterward sold this property and reinvested the pro ceeds for his own personal benefit. Shot Brother, is Rumor. Then there is an old story that years ago in Burke County Judge Godbee became involved In a difficul ty with a brother of the woman he afterward married, and killed him. He pleaded self-defense and was ac quitted. There Is no record., though, that this trouble had any bearing on the marital differences of the couple. Friction between the couple reached a critical stage ten years ago. when Mrs. Godbee filed suit for divorce in Jenkins County, charging cruelty on the part of her husband. She declared that the judge had hu miliated her before her children, had driven her from his room and had nailed the entrance between the tw-o chambers in which they lived. Even after this suit was filed there was a reconciliation, but the trouble cropped out again about five years ago. when Mrs. Godbee again enter-d suit. She was granted absolute di vorce. but the judge was successful in resisting her plea for alimony. Mrs. Godbee was also given the custody of her minor child, MIsr Sarah God bee, with whom she lived at the time of the tragedy. Divorce Didn’t End Trouble. The divorce decree did not end the troubles of the pair, however. Mrs. Godbee always contended that the money on which Judge Godbee was living luxuriously after the decre* rightfully belong,to her. It is certain that she was in strait ened circumstances at the time of the killing, and it is believed that the sight of another woman enjoying the fortune she believed hers, while she virtually was living in poverty, had no little to do with her determination to take justice into her own hands. For after the divorce Judge Godbee married again. His third wife was Miss Florence Boyer. 25 years old. of Youngstown. Ohio. After their meeting at the sea shore Judge God bee continued his courtship at her home, and little more than four months ago he brought her to Millen as his bride. A crisis was reached. Soon after the judge’s return, it is declared, he received demands from his former wife that he contribute to the support of her and her daughter. In these demands she cited the fact that ehe was entitled to at least part of the In come he derived from property which had originally been hers. Judge Feared for Life. Intimate friends of the Judge say that from that time on he feared, not only for his own life, but for that of his bride. So alarmed did he become that on receiving a threatening letter Sunday he refused to take his bride to church, although he was a steward of the First Methodfst congregation, and re- ouested the pastor, the Rev. E. E Roue, to come to the Hotel Estelle, where he had apartments, to conduct private prayers. It is evident that on that same day J UDGE WALTER M. GODBEE and his third wife, whom he married four months ago, and who, with her husband, was slain by Mrs. Edna Perkins Godbee, divorced second wife of the jurist, now awaiting trial in the Jenkins County jil. Victims in Millen tragedy, who are buried side by side at Waynsboro Iff TOLL FOB Detectives Shadowing Mail Thief Believed to Have Cached $40,- 000 After Robbery. KANSAS CITY, Augr. 28.—Charles Savage, a negro mail robber, released from the penitentiary in Leavenworth, is being shadowed by three detectives. He will be kept under watch con stantly because somewjiere is hidden $40,000 of the $50,000 in currency he stole five years ago from a registered mail pouch, and nobody except Sav age knows where it is. When Savage was released he was met at the door by his mother and a young woman to whom he was en gaged before he was sent to prison. They came at once to Kansas City to see an uncle, who is dying. “They needn’t watch me,” he said, “if they think I’m going to dig up $40,000 they’re mistaken. I wish I knew where there was $40,000 buried.” “Isn’t it queer that $2,000 in $20 gold certificates of the same series as stolen from the mail sack were found blowing around in the wind near your mother’s home in South Leavenworth this spring?” Savage was asked. “Yes. that’s queer. I don’t under stand,” he answered. “I read about that, and I figured it out that some person who ’Wed in South Leaven worth had stolen that mall sack and hidden the money there, and the rain had washed away the dirt where i r w as burled, and the wind got at it and blew it away.” Tents Only Shelter For Toledo Families City Is Growing So Rapidly That Builders Can Not Construct Houses Demanded. Mrs. Godbee No. 2 decided'on the deed she committed Monday. She got into communication with Marshal P. T Foote and requested him to call on her at her daughter’s home. There, the marshal says. Mrs. God bee showed him a 32-caiib c r pistol. “Will this kill as quickly au a .38?" was the surprising question he was asked. “It will if it hits the right spot.” he replied. She seemed satisfied with the answer and the interview closed This same pistol was in Mrs. God- bee's handbag Monday morning when she went to the Millen postoffice. She knew that each day the judge visited there early in the forenoon to inquire for mail. She was seated writing a-a he entered the building, accompanied by his young wife. Tried to Save His Bride. Eyewitnesses declare that the judge saw her and immediately seized his bride apd hastened to leave the place. His retreat was too late. The woman who had divorced him was on her feet. Her pistol was in her hand and s»he leveled it steadily. The first shot struck him in the body. The wound was mortal, but with his last strength he threw’ himself between the pistol and his wife, acting as a shield for her. Another shot sent a bullet through his brain. He died instantly. Mrs. Godbee stood frozen with horror. One look at the judge’s body told his for mer wife that she had done her work there well. Again the pistol was lev eled and as the young woman cried hystericall’ two shots were fired into her body. She sank to the floor, then attempted to rise. A third shot lef. her lying helpless. The divorced woman then turned and without haste left the post office and “returned to the home of her daughter and calmly t id her what she had done. She was found there a few minutes later by Sheriff Y.. G. Johnston, who placed her under arrest. Mrs. Godbee died Tuesday night in the apartments* in which she and l^er husband had lived during the two months of their married life. Mrs. G. YV. Boyer, mother of the slain bride, was en route from Williamsport, to Millen when her daughter died. An interesting legal point now iriseu. It was at first contended that as the shooting took place in the postofflee, a Government reservation, the United States Court would have jurisdiction in the case. Now. however the point is advanced that the Government merely leases the*postoffice property and that ac cordingly the case w ill be tried in the Jenkins County Circuit Court. Eu'k of Estate to Daughter. The will of Judge Godbee lias been found In the possession of W. B. Wal lace. a merchant, and one of the dead man's closest friends. The val ue of the estate' is between $45,000 jand $50,000. He bequeathe* the bulk of his property and securities to his daughter by his first wife, formerly Miss Maggie Godbee, now married and living in Augusta. Small portions of the estate are left to Frank Mills and King Godbee, sons of the divorced wife, and Miss Sarah Godbee. also an issue of the second marriage. The divorced wife is not provided for in the instrument. Frank Mills Godbee has been appointed tem porary administrator of the estate of Judge Godbee. and A. S. Anderson, temporary administrator of the estate of Mrs. Florence Boyer Godbee. The third Mrs. Godbee has been buried beside he r husband and his first wife in Waynesboro. Tire condition of Mrs. Boyer, the slain bride’s mother is said to be somewhat improved fol lowing her collapse upon first seeing the dead body of her young daughter. Her two .sons have come from Penn sylvania and will remain with her un til she returns to her home at Wil liamsport j Neither of the boys expresses any ; animosity toward the slayer of their I sister and her husband, but both join their mother in hoping that exact .justice will be done.

Colonel Gailliard, of South Caro lina, Breaks Down Under Tremendous Task. More than any other section of the country, the South is expected to realize in prosperity and develop ment by the opening ot the Panama Canal. But the South is to pay Its toll and pay for It dearly. Just w'hen the canal was an as sured fact, Senator John T. Morgan, of Alabama, father of the Isthmian Waterway idea, died as a result of his years of ceaseless labor impress ing the necessity of rthe canal on Congress. Nok Lieutenant Colonel David Du Bois Gailliard, of South Carolina, the army engineer who dug the Culebr* Cut, has had to abandon the scene of his triumph and return to the United States to give his nervous system shattered by his work, a rest which it has needed for months. And that is not all. From the zone, the advices come that Colonel Wil liam L. Sibert, of Alabama, Aie army engineer in charge of the w’ork on the great Gatun Dam, is on the point of a breakdown and it is extremely doubtful if he will be strong enough to stay in the zone to see his *vork completed. Career* of Two Similar. The careers of Colonel Sibert and Colonel Gailliard have been remark ably similar Gailliard was born in South Carolina; Sibert, in Alabama. They entered West Point the same year and both graduated in 1884 among the first five men in their class. After their graduation, both were sent to Willets Point and in 1908. when the canal work was put in the hands of the army engineers, Colonel Goethals immediately picked the two Southerners as his chief aides. Sibert was put in charge of the work on the Atlantic side, which included the building of the Gatun Dam. while Gailliard was In charge of the work In the Interior of the zone. That Lieutenant Colonel Gaillard had suffered a nervous breakdown was known only to a few of his inti mate friends in the army. A few weeks ago when liis condition be came serious the matter was brought to the attention of General Bixby, the chief engineer in Washington, and by General Bixby called to the at tention of Secretary of War Garrison, who immediately granted the strick en engineer a long leave of absence. Lieutenant Colonel Charles P’. Ma son, Medical Corps. U. S. A., the di rector of the Ancon Hospital, in the Canal Zone; Mrs. Gaillard and Lieu tenant Colonel Gaillard’s young son came with him and went with him to Baltimore. where he will enter the John Hopkins Hospital. There he will be under the care of some of the most eminent specialists in nervous disorders in this country. Leave Did Not Aid Him. Colonel Gaillard was in New York less than tw'o months ago after a six w'eeks' leax'e of absence that he had taken in the hope that the rest would benefit his health to the extent that he would be able to remain in the Canal Zone. He sailed from New’ York on June 27 last, again to take charge of th e work in the Central Di vision. Those who talked with him at that time remember that he expressed a desire to get away from the Isthmus as soon as his work w’as finished, but, he added, with a touch of sadness in his soft Southern voice, “When I do leave it will be with deep and sincere regret.” Lieutenant Colonel Gaillard is the first of the famous army engineers employed in the construction of the Panama Canal to be stricken as a result of his work. A few w’eeks ago Colonel William M. Black. Corps of Engineers, the chief of that branch of the service in this part of the United States, the officer who was head of the engineering hoard which solved the problem of raising the old battleship Maine, was in Panama and was Gaillard’s guest. C.ose Friends for Year*. The two officers have been inti mate friends for years. During his stay at Empire, the headquarters of Colonel Gaillard, Colonel Black noted and realized that the builder of Cu- lebra Cut needed a long and complete rest. "Gaillard.” said Colonel Black last night, “is one of the most wonderful organizers the army has developed. *His work in the Canal Zone has been little short of marvelous. He laid out his plans in such a way that he got the maximum out of everything, es pecially In the handling of the rail road part of the work He was also able within a- few months after he took charge at Empire to double the work accomplished in a specified time. Some of the things that he did experienced railroad men had said were practically impossible.” Woman Given Job Of Cleaning Up State Success in Making Tacoma a Spot less Town Causes Promotion in Service.
