BosToN, Oct. 2S.-MURpER.-At an ear
ly hour yesterday morning Coroner Pratt
was called TO house situateA in tie narrow
street that runs out of Mount Vernon street
north, between Cedar and Charles streets.
On arriving, he found woman BY the name
of Mrs. Bickford lying on the floor, dead,
her throat having been cut from ear TO ear
in the most shocking manner. A coroner's
inquest was held and an examination entered
upon, but il was continued to this morning at
9o'clock. The facts as they have appear
ed are substantially these: Mrs. Bickford,
who has husband living in Maine, is said to
have been connected ia this city with man
by the name of Alder, ]. Tirrell, of Wey.
mouth. He visited her on Sunday afternoon
and evening, and some Of the inmates of the
house testified to hearing QUARREL between
them. Towards morning woman in an.
other room hearing noise went into Mrs.
Bickford's room and found her in the situa.
ton above named and entirely dead, her
throat having been cut with razor. The
room had been SET on fire in several places,
the mattress was turned up and some match
es put into the straw bed underneath. The
murderer had not been arrested last night |:
but we trust that the officers of Justice will
secure him, of which there cannot be much
doubt. Tie is a married man, and quite young.
