cotton work in that neighbourhood. Iler husband, James Devon,
an Irishman, has been fully committed to take his trial fur the
atrocious deed. The last time the poor woman was seen alive, she
was sitting upon a small stool, at a distance from thehed where the
corpse was afterwards found. It would appear that the murderer
had come behind her, mid, in effecting his horrid purpose, had
drawn a razor obliquely upwards with such strength that the wind-
pipe was completely severed, by a cut to the depth of two inches,
and the tongue cut completely tin ouLlt ecee the root! The sight
was most shocking. When told lie was committed to take his
trial fur the murder, the culprit was gt: atly agitated.
