Shot His Sweetheart and Then Himself
Newark, N.J. - April 22. - Max Hunger, a German, aged 23, shot his former sweetheart,
Martha Marawaky, and himself this afternoon in the dining room of W. M. Little's
residence, where Martha was employed. Some time ago Martha discarded Max, her parents
objecting to their marriage on account of his drinking habits. Hunger called at the house
at noon prepared to kill the girl. He deliberately fired three shots at her, hitting her
in the hand. One of the balls entered her head near the left ear and lodged in the brain.
She was removed to the city hospital. Hunger shot himself in the head, expiring
instantly. In his pockets were found letters addressed to the girl's father and to
the chief police of this city.
