The Murder Of Two Sisters i'm MEssa-
chuNetfS.

The following account of the murder of
two aged women, sisters; at South Gardner,
Worcester county, Mass. is confirmed by
persons from that place:
South GARDNER, March 8, 1856
A fendish crime has been committed in
this vicinity, between Baldwinville and Gard.
ner. Two aged maiden sisters, living alone,
some distance from their neighbors, were
cruelty killed night before last. The fact
was not discovered till last evening near 9
O'Clock. The alarm spread like wild fire
through the town. The sisters slept in sepa-
rate rooms, and had gone to bed. One was
killed on the bed by repeated blows of a large
chair-round, and the other was felled with
the same weapon as she was coming from
the bedroom adjoining, (probably to see
what allied her sister) and then large stone
had been thrown on her to complete the in
fernal deed. One lay on the bed, the other
at the foot on the floor. Both were awfully
beaten about the head. The intent of the
murderer was robbery, as every thing was
ransacked. They were poor, were some
where near 60 years of age, and were sisters
of the late Abner Kneeland, the infidel.-
Both pious. A vagrant Frenchman has been
arrested on suspicion of being the murderer
F.B. A.
The murder, when announced in Fitchbure
last night, at once created an intense excite.
ment. The fact that there appeared to be
no motive for the crime-the victims being
without any valuable moveables or money
was considered remarkable circumstance
1t is thought mistake was made, as there is
another maiden couple about half mile dis
tant from the place of the murder, who are
well off, but who, however, do not keep any
great amount of money in the house. In re-
gard TO the Frenchman arrested. it is state.
that spots of blood were found upon hi
clothes.
