A SAD RECORD OF CRIME.-The Co
lumbus Fact states that day or two since
one John Kain who was sent to State Pris-
On from Cincinnati, a year ago, for murder
in the second degree, was taken back for a
second trial, flaw in the indictment hav-
ing been found, and new trial allowed
Two years since the wife of Kain died,
leaving husband and three daughters
Kain not being endowed with any moral
courage became depressed and took to
drink to relieve his sorrows. The daught-
.ers thus left to contend with poverty, and
without the good advice and example of a
father, became prey to vicious men and
vicious thoughts. An improper intimacy
sprang up between man named Mitchell
and the oldest daughter, and the father in
moment of sensitive appreciation of the
wrong done her slew the paramour, and for
this was tried and sent to Penitentiary.-
The downward course Of the daughters was
then rapid. Two have just been convict
ed of Grand Larceny and will be sent to
the State Prison. The remaining one
the youngest-is is now in the House of Re
fuge.-Review.

AN AFFECTING INCIDENT.-Monday af-
ternoon a small lad, not apparently over
ten years of age, knocked at the Office door
of he Jail, and asked permission of Mr..
Mclean to visit his father who was confined
within. His form was slight and fragile,
and but lily defended from the cold by
few scanty rags. Poverty was depicted in
every feature-his cheeks hollow and wan,
as if The very hues of life had forsaken
them. The request was granted, and pass
ing through the outer entrance he paused
before the ponderous grated door within,
and extending his hand through the open
ing between the iron bars, addressed one
of the motley group shut up within as
"Father." The lad deeply felt for the pa
;ent's disgrace, and casting his eyes down
ward, remained fixed and immovable
for a time, and was only aroused by
him within asking in gruff voice, "What
do you want!" Startling up, but still
holding on to the hand, the lad said, in
sweet but almost heart broken accents,
"Father, mothers dead" The words ac-
ted like charm--the criminal was sudden
ly transformed to q loving husband and ia
ther; his head sank upon his bosom, and
he realized in moment his degraded stu
alton. Tears thick and fast-the first, per-
haps, for many a year,-howed down his
cheeks, and turning round, he motioned
his boy away. Sorowfully the lad left the
Jail, 10 go bacl, and keep alone through the
night his watch by the side of his mothers

He was then locked up in an upper room

of the woman, and while there he jumped
out Of the window and escaped. 1

@ Cyrus Butler of Providence, was
worth, when he died, five millions of dol
lars, yet he lived poorer than most men,
not worth one thousand. Salt Goldfish
was standard dish with him, and even
in his last sickness, he upbraided those
who had care of him for their extravaganza
in providing delicacies for him. His snuff
he kept in a large box and bought it by
the cents worth. There was but one store
in Providence, and that on India Point,
where he could get his box filled for a
cent, and the old man used to patronize
that sto. e, more than mile distant, when
ever his box required filling.

pistols at each other, and the shots caused
great CONSERVATION in the dining room.-
Some rushed out-some went under the

the range of the pistols. Many of the la

Old Times in Old Tuscaraxyas.
GNADFNHUTTEN, o., !
Feb. 10th, 1859. [

EDITOR LEADER@I have read many In
teresting sketchs in your paper about some
of the old settlers of the Western Reserve.
1t caused me to reflect on the past also,
and thought l would give you short
sketch of olden times in old Tuscarawas,
because l consider myself one of the old
settlers of Tuscarawas county.
We moved here from Pennsylvania in
November, 1908. l therefore have lived
here a little over fifty-one years. l do not
intend to give You history of the hard
ships l endured, but you may imagine what
for times we had when l tell you two or
three of the old settlers would club togeth-
er and take 90 bushels of wheat to Cleve-
land, and trade it for barrel of salt =
Wheat sold then at 25 cents per bushel,
and salt at $500 per barrel. | will now
give you the current price of certain arti-
cles in the years 1899 and 1902, taken
from an old Day Book Tor Ledger,) Of an
old Merchant by the name ofDavid Peters,
who moved to Gnadenhutten in the year
1899. The articles and prices are as fol-
loves: Coffee so cts. per lb., Iron ls cts.
per h., Nails 274 cts. per lb., Window
glass Is cts. per light, and Salt 80 cts. per
quart!
Now for snake story. My Father, af-
ter first settling here, while walking by a
white elm stump, saw three or four copper
heads lying at the roots, and killed them,
on breaking the stump to pieces be killed
upwards of forty copper-heads under the
one stump! Can any of our old settlers
beat that on snakes!
Enclosed you will find small bone a
few grains of corn, which we yet have as
remembrance of the ninety six Christian
Indians who were killed and burned here,
on the sth day of March, 1882. For fur
ther information would refer you to
Howe's History of Onio.
There is one thing of which can boast
at least. of which some of the older set
tiers cannot; and that is that l have not
been out of the State since moved in,
but have seen out once or twice. l have
been TO Cleveland once, and once to CO.
lumbus, and in other towns of lesser note.

spiritual pastor, the Rev. David Brainard.
One woman, who could speak good Eng
lish, kuelt before the commander and beg
ged bis protection. Her supplication was
unayailing. They Were ordered to prepare
for death. But the warning had been an
tcipated. Their firm belief in their new
creed was shown forth in the sad hour of
their tribulation, by religious exercises of
preparation. The prisons of these devoted
people were already ascending the throne
of the Most High the sound of the CHRIS
tian's HYMN and the Christians prayer
found an echo to the surrounding woods,
but no responsive feeling in the bosoms of
their executioners. With gun and spear,
and tomahawk, and scalping knife, the
work of death progressed in these slaught-
er-houses, till not sigh or moan was
heard to proclaim the existence of human
life within-all, save two,-two Indian
boys escaped, as if by miracle, to be wit
nesses in after times of the savage cruelty
of the white men towards their unfortunate
race. ,.I-
Thus were upwards of ninety human be-
ings buried to an untimely grave by those
who should have been their legitimate pro-
tectors. After committing the barbarous
act, Williamsod and his men set fire to the
houses containing the dead, and then
marched off for Shoenbrun, the upper In
dian town: But here the news of their
atrocious deeds had preceded them. The
inhabitants had all fled, aud with them fled
for time the hopes of the missionaries to
established a settlement of Christian Indl-
ans on the Tuscarawas. The fruits of ten
years labor in the cause of civilization,
were apparently lost.
The hospitable and friendly character of
the Moravian Indians, had extended be-
yond their white brethren on the Ohio
The American people looked upon the act
of Williamson and his men as an. outrage
on humanity. The American Congress
felt the influence of public sympathy for
their fate, and on the Sd of September,
1888, passed an ordinance for the encour-
agement of the Moravian missionaries in
the work of civilizing the Indians. A
remnant of the scattered flock was brought
back, and two friendly chiefs and their fol-
lowers became the recipients of public favor.
