HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.-ln the early part of
the present month soldier belonging to the
One Hundreth Regiment. having reenlistod
for the war, obtained thirty days furlough.
and returned to his home in Lawrence coun-
ty, about four miles from Darlington, and al
most adjoining the Beaver county line. The
man was married. and during his absence his
wife contracted an intimacy with a scamp in
the neighberhood, which eliminated in
criminal intimacy between the parties. OF
all this, however, the husband was in com
plete ignorance. Soon after his arrival, it
agreed between the woman and her par
amoar that he should be put out of the way,
ard one night, while the unsuspecting man
lay asleep in his bed, the guilty pair approach
ed him, and slipping a moose. which they had
previously prepared, over his head, they threw
the other end over beam which extended
across the dwelling, and pulling on it with all
their might, they swung the wretched man
off the bed, and in a moment almost had him
in such position that resistance on his part
became impossible. Finding that death did
not take place as soon as they expected, they
fastened the rope (which up to this time they
had held over the beam, the body of their vic
tim writhing in bis death agony from the
other end ; to peg in the wall. and leaving
the house. After remaining outside long
enough for strangulation to take place, they
again entered the house, and taking down
the now lifeless remains of the murdered
man, carried them to coal bank in the vi
cinity, inside of which they concealed them.
The next day it was noticed that the woman's
paramour was rather flush of funds, and this
coupled with the fact that the soldier was
missing. induced those who knew the guilty
relations existing between the woman aud the
man to suspect that all was not right so an
inquiry was instituted through which the en-
tire tragedy was brought to light. The wom-
an, struck with fear or remorse, made a con-
fesSon of the whole affair. duplicating her
paramour as the principal in the murder, and
both he and she were arrested and committed
to jail at New Castle to await their trial for
murder PatSbury Chronicle, February %.
