HARRY STEIN DIED FROM WOMAN'S BULLET
 
Kinton, April 18 - Harry Stein, young business man, died in a hospital here today from bullet 
wound inflicted three weeks ago by Margaret Partello, a South Kinston girl, who is being held 
pending preliminary trial.  The police say there is no evidence to offset her claim of self-defense.  
Stein was a clever amateur athlete.  The girl is said to be of Italian parentage.  They had been 
intimates for some time.  Margaret Partello says Stein, jealous of her, had drawn a knife to kill 
her when she fired.
