across in two places, All the great mass Of muscles
and cords upon the right side, and small pieces were
Clipped off from the processes Of the bone.
There were two or three other slight cuts upon the
hands. There were, also, two sabs upon the right
thigh, One of these was quite deop but did not in
Jure any of the great vessels.
The selectmen have appointed Committee Of in
vesgaon, to examine and find out if possible, tho
murderer or murderers of Mr. Parker. We snip.
pose they take cogazancs Of facts and the nee
essary steps for the arrest of whoever may be strong
" suspected olihe crime. The committee consists of
Mace Moulton, J. NJ. ROwe, D. Clark G. W.
Morrison, S. ID Bell, Walter French, Luther Farley
Herman Foster.
Bn we feel convinced that time will reveal the Sc
cret and unravel tho mystery. From circumstances
which have come TO ght,h looks quite probable that
the murderer had accomplices, as two men were
heard ms If in alteration Immediately after the noise
proceeding from where Mr. p. was murdered, and
wagon was heard TO start from the place to where
the murderer readily tracked, aud whore he
seems to have stood dripping with blood for short
time, when he wheeled short round, and rotraced
his steps for short distance and then turned into
highway. From these circumstances it is surmised
that he was TO have been taken into the wagon but
dripping with blood, his accomplish was fearful of
consequences and drove Perhaps the man in the
wagon may have taken the money, and gone in an
other directions; perhaps he may have agreed to meet
the murderer at place after he had been cleuns-
ed from blood.
Bnt we cannot rely upon these surmises for facts
we must wait ill they clearly developed
Certain ii that the cries and groans of the murdered
man were heard 1t may appear strange TO those
al distance that they did not cause sufficient alarm
to create more excitement at the time. But those
cries of short duration that the persons who
heard them persuaded themselves that nothing ser-
GUS had occurred
