Edition: Chicago Tribune
Morgantown, W. Va., Oct. 18 [Special] -- Mrs. Susan Holden, 52, an English instructor at West Virginia university and active in Women's clubs and other civic affairs, was found slain in her home today.
Her body, clothed only in a nightgown, was sprawled on a bed. She had been slashed across the cheek, neck, and breast, probably with one blow, and had been stabbed twice in the stomach.
Coroner J. B. Riffle said there was no external evidence of rape. The house had been thoroly ransacked, indicating the killer was a burglar, but it was not determined immediately whether anything had been taken.
Husband in Alabama
Mrs. Holden's husband, John H. Holden, to whom she was married in 1950, is a chemist employed by the United States bureau of mines experiment station at West Virginia university. He went to Gorgas, Ala., Sunday in connection with his work and was notified there of his wife's slaying.
Sheriff Clarence E. Johnson reported that a suspect is being held for questioning but had not been linked with the crime.
Authorities expected to have not trouble proving the killer's presence in the house because of numerous finger prints and footprints reportedly left there. The sheriff said the intruder gained entrance by forcing open a kitchen widow and left thru the front door.
Dined Out with Friends
Mrs. Holden had returned home about 10:30 last night after being out to dinner with a woman friend.
She was the daughter of the late Sam Montgomery, formerly a state senator who once was a candidate for nomination as governor.
Mrs. Holden had taught school for 30 years in Brooklyn, N. Y., and Several West Virginia communities, including Clarksburg.
