Confessed Killing Her Child.?
Mrs.:Annie Pensal, a thin, dark, trim,
little woman, went to confession at St.
Francis Xavier's Catholic Church Fri?
day night and entered tlie confessional
box in which Father McGovcrn was
sitting. She seemed quiet aud self
possessed. She told the priest that she
bad strangled aud killed her six
mouths old baby Mary. She said that
she lived at i 11 west Fifteenth street,
New York, with her husband Fred,
who is out of work, aud her three sons,
her twin boys i"red and George, aged 6
years, and a third boy aged 4. For the
last few days she suiil she had strange
thoughts. She believed there were
witches next door. She believed that
she was bewitched and that she was
soon to kill her little girl. There
seemed to be no escape from her ideas.
At noon on Friday she felt the time
had come. The husband was not
at home, and the three boys were
playing together in one of the rooms.
In another room was her daughter
Mary, asleep on the bed. She went to
the bed without waking the child, aud
thrust her band down the child's
throat until it choked to death. The
girl made no outcry, aud there was no
struggle. The neighbors in the houso
heard aud knew nothing of the deed.
When she had told how she had kill?
ed her baby, the priest left her in the
church and stepped to the door to call
a policeman. Officer Currau chanced
to be going by. aud he was eaHed in.
The priest told him to go with the wo?
man to her home and see if what she
bad said had really happened, for the
priest could hardly believe it The of?
ficer and the woman hurried arouud to
her rooms, and there Curran found
things very much as she had described
them to the priest. He took Mr?.
Pensal to the police station. She
stood quietly before the desk and seem?
ed at ease. The sergeaut listened with
unbelief to Curran's story aud then
turned to the woman and asked her if
it were true. She brushed aside the
plaid shawl which she wore on her
head and said it was true.
She was sent to the Bellevue insane
pavilion. The three little boys were
sent to the Gerry society.
