    1. Re: [PAPhl] 1937 Philadelphia Hospital (Murder).

    3. I used to have access to a Philadelphia newspaper through a library, but they were unable to continue their contract with the source, so I no longer have that access. I have looked through my local library newspapers (online) and are unable to find what you want, but someone out there will, hopefully, have a subscription to some newspaper that will have an article. I was hopeful that another paper would have picked up the story, but I had no luck.
