q" Murder VIII Out ="

On tho 18th of August last, an old farmer,
named Martin Gleason, residing in Proton,
Grey Co., G. W., was found lying in a pool Of
blood in ono or his fields, under circumstances
that led 10 the conclusion that no had been shot
while at work AMI then robbed. A coroner's
inquest, AT which man, named X. Jennings,
acted as foreman, returned verdict OF murder
by some unknown persons. This verdict, no.
satisfying tho neighbors, a detective was pro-
cured from Toronto, who learned that deceased
was of very perurious habits, and always car.
ried a largo sum OF money about his person, but
was 80 ie norant that ho could not tell IL bill
from % or $40, and in paying money was
accustomed to hand his wallet To tho party to
hslp himself Tho final result Of tho detec.
tive s Investigations fixed the crime beyond
doubt on X. jennings the foreman OF tho coro-
ners Jury, and Thomas Parsley, his brother in
low. A woman saw Parsley coming out Of the
bush soon after the shot was fired, and at the
same time Jennings, who also heard the report,
said somebody i numbering oil Gleason ior
his money" The same night, Jennings slept
at his brother -n-law's house, instead Of going
home as usual, and soon Afterwards IT was oh
served that the two confederates in crime
sported an unusual amount Of monev. The two
men are now in Jail, awaiting trial.
