Deweese Listed By New York Police As Suicide "For Reasons Unknown" Was Fashion Model. The death of a former Coudersport girl, and a New York fashion model, whose body was found in the areaway of an apartment house at 50 Park Ave., New York, on Christmas day, has been listed as "suicide for reasons unknown," it was disclosed Sunday. The victim was Jewell Roberta Deweese, 32, who lived with her parents on Ross St. here, before she went to Philadelphia following graduation from the Coudersport High School in 1934. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Owen Deweese. JEWELL ROBERTA DEWEESE New York police described the woman as having had reddish brown hair which had turned almost white, apparently in recent months. They said she was divorced about three years ago from a Collinswood, N. J., man whom she married 10 years ago, and that she was the mother of an eight-year-old girl now living with relatives. Miss Deweese apparently walked to the roof of the 18-story 50 Park Ave. building sometime late Christmas Eve or early next morning and jumped, police said. Her broken body was found on the roof of a one-story extension at the rear ol an adjoining building at 8 a. m. Christmas Day. There were no witnesses to the plunge. Miss Deweese had been a fashion model at Bergdorf-Goodman, New York furriers. Previously, she was employed by Oscar's Model Bureau, in Philadelphia, and for a time was a hostess at Stouffer's, a Philadelphia restaurant. Police said that Miss Deweese's body remained unidentified for two days until her finger prints were matched with those on an application which she made early in the war in seeking to become an en tertainer with the USO. She had "some singing ability," police said. Born in Coudersport on Jan. 27, Jewell "Bobbie" as she was later known to classmates lived with her parents on Borie St. The family, including a brother, Richard, later lived on Ross St. with Miss Rose Crane, a relative and a teacher in the Coudersport school. Jewell's parents were divorced and, according to reports, each has remarried. The mother is reported to be living near Philadelphia and Mr. Deweese is confined to a sanatorium at Niagara Falls. Richard is married and lives at Niagara Falls, according to local persons who knew the family. Mrs. Fred Fessenden, Jewel's aunt, lives here. She was informed of the tragedy by friends who had read the story in Monday's Philadelphia Inquirer. A former Coudersport woman rendered valuable assistance to New York police in their effort to identify the dead woman. Mrs. J. L. Wasson, the former Beatrice Fleschutz and a classmate of Miss Deweese, now living on Long Island, corresponded with Miss Deweese at intervals and knew something of the whereabouts of her parents. Her tip to police led to the identification. Miss Lehman Bride Of Edward W. Pekarski The marriage of Miss Rhoda L. Lehman to Edward W. Pekarski, son of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Pekarski, was solemnized last evening at 7:30 o'clock, at St. Eulalia's rectory with the Rev. Francis M. O'Connell officiating. The bridal couple was attended by Florence Corey and Walter Pekarski, a brother of the groom. The bride chose for her wedding ensemble a two piece model of dark green shade with brown accessories. Her corsage was fashioned of stephanotis and a feather tied with white ribbon. Her attendant wore a gray suit with black accessories and a corsage of yellow roses. Mr. and Mrs. Pekarski have an apartment on Water Street ready for their occupancy. Mr. Pekarski is employed at the tannery. Fails To Pay Fine and Costs --Sent To Jail Robert Chilson, Ulysses, arrested for a motor violation some weeks ago, failed to make payment of the fine and costs imposed. He was committed to the county jail by Justice D. A. Ritchie, Tuesday, to serve four days. Faulty Brakes On School Bus Violation Lloyd A. Tyler, R. D. 3, Coudersport, was charged Friday with operating a school bus with faulty brakes. He was notified by Justice W. C. Klein.
