In fear of Sherbourne , he applied to the Chief of Police for permission to carry a revolver , which permission was refused , the newspapers as usual playing it up sensationally . Then came the murder of Irene Tackley , six days before her contemplated marriage with Sherbourne . It was on a Saturday night . She had worked late in the candy store , departing after eleven o'clock with her week 's wages in her purse . She rode on a San Pablo Avenue surface car to Thirty-fourth Street , where she alighted and started to walk the three blocks to her home . That was the last seen of her alive . Next morning she was found , strangled , in a vacant lot .
