supposed murder Of an Indian Doctor il
Harmony township, known to have had yer,
large sums of money in his possession. HI
is supposed to have been murdered by tn
man with whom he had boarded, as befor
the disappearance of the Doctor he was nev
n known to be sin change" whereas, i'm
mediately after, the Doctors clothes appear
ed made over, upon the backs of the man
6 children, and money did "much abound"
Several spirit mediums told where tn
body of the doctor was buried, but the pee
. oe by not following exactly the direction;
,, failed to find it. A clairvOyant intorme
! them, several were concerned in the murdc
md that one of the gang had killed pcdla
some years before and buried his body j
