Chester Arthur Burge, a wealthy Macon real estate investor, was charged with murder here 5/31, in the strangling of his wife in their palatial home 5/10. Detective Chief W.L. Bargeron said he was "definite proof" that Burge slipped from the Macon General Hospital, went to his home, killed Mrs. Mary Burge, then slipped back into the hospital. Burge, shown entering the Detective Bureau, has steadfastly denied his guilt.
