SUICIDE PACT PAIRJECOVER Soldier Changes Story as Both Pass Poison Crisis. With a “load off his mind” after he had confessed to detectives that he entered a poison suicide with his avowed sweetheart, William Blakowski, 33, a private at Ft. Benjamin Harrison, showed improvement Friday and seemed- to have passed the crisis safely, according to fort doctors today. For ten days he had insisted that Mrs. Edna Workman, 33, of 44 S. Tremont St., gave him poison tablets when he asked her for a headache remedy. But he changed his sfbry yesterday afternoon when he was confronted by Mrs. Workman, who had recovered sufficiently to be taken from city hospital to the fort. He told detectives that he gave a fake story because he thought he would not be taken into the fort hospital if he admitted taking poison. • Both victims said that they had considered ending their lives. When the question of marriage came up, they decided it would be a long time before Blakowski came out of the Army, and so they decided to end their lives at the same time by taking poison, Blakowski told detectives.
