The HOUSE or DIX. n X. FREEMAN,
OF WEST FARMS VILLAGE ENTERED AFTER .DARK
BY ARMED Men. AND ONE OF HIS FEMALE SERVANTS
ABDUcrED.-Ou Monday night, the sth INST. num-
Der of armed men, among whom were recognized
James and John Kelly, orciby entered the residence
of Dr. n. X Freeman, at the village of West Farms
and abducted Jane Grey the family nurse The fol-
lowing are the particulars of this daring and high
handed outrage
On the fellows efectiug their entrance they seized
hold OF Jane Grey and IN their endeavor to carry her
out she crIed loudly for help Her cries being heard
the other servants endeavored prevent them taking
her away At this, John Kelly presented pistol a
would blow her brains out The gang of men then
forced her out of the kitchen door, and through the
| garden. and so along back street, where wagon
was IN waiting, driven by Cornelius Kelly into
which thee men thrust her. and drove toward West
! chester.
Warrants were immediately issued, and officers
nut on their track but 10 traces Of them could be
| found
The next morning, Tuesday Cornelius Kelly re-
| TUNED, and was taken into custody. Subsequently,
James Kelly and the girl returned to DR. Freeman's.
Upon being questioned she stated tina, after forcing
her into the wagon she heard James Kelly tell the
| other men that Father Mcclure. the Catholic Priest
at WeStchester and Momsania village, told HIM to
fetch her away from Dr.. FreemanS. no matter what
| happened afteTwa d.
She further stated that she tainted and vomited
several times, and that they dashed cold water over
ber Cornelius Kelly remarked 10 James, that she
would die James replied, IL swear 10 God If she
| does, Will bring her corpse to New-York." That
| they drove to NewYork and took her to house IN
| PIne-st, where she had fits for two hours. There
was a woman there who told Kelly that she would
die and he would be arrested as her murderer This
frightened Kelly that he agreed 10 return her 10
| West Farms.
During the abduction. person IN the village over
| heard some of the party say that, Dr. Freeman
nigh, as well look for needle IN a hay-stack be-
cause they would dasl her trans ont before to-mor
row night" They also declared that three of them
would ravl>h her.
By way of explanation. We would state that The
pirl was married by the Catholic Priest, Of West
Farms, to James Kelly IN July, 1850 but that she
never lived with him an hour that Kelly had never
contributed 10 her support but she has always lived
IN the family OF Dr. + She was deceived into the
marriage with him. and at the time the hendlsh look
he gave her so disguised her. that IN moment she
decided never 70 i've with him. His brutality 10 her
since. has proved that her instructive dread Of ham
at the time OF the marriage. was well-founded.
On Wednesday. Cornelius and James Kelly hly-
ing been arrested. were taken before Justice Parker
