SHOCKING MURDERS IN YORK COUNTY, Pa
Three Persons BUfchered.-The following we
take from The Harrisburg Telegraph:
George Squlbb was farmer ln easy cIrcnm-
stances, residing IN W3rreston township, York
county, Pa, and whose family consisted of
himself, his wife and a grand daughter. OF
about IA years OF age. 1t was supposed Mr. s.
who was about 20 years of age. had considera-
ble money In his possession, and it seems that
some ffDd in human shape, determined to se-
cure this filthy lucre, even at the sacrifice of
several lives. On Sunday night the monster
visited the house of Mr. So uibb, and there muir
dered the wtrole family. The terrible afTsir WAS
not discovered until Monday morning when
the neighbor found Mr.. =. lying on the porch OF
his house, his body bearing the marks of no
less Than fourteen cuts that had been made
thereon with n knife in the hands OF the mur.
derer. The old mans life was not extinct
but lie was insensible, and lived only untii
the evening Inside of the house was the form
of Mrs Sqnibb, horribly beaten and cut She
too, was senseless, and there is hot the least
hope entertained of her recovery, while it is
highly probable that the vital spark has fled
ere Tins reaches the eve of the reader Near by
lay the body OF the granddaughter, cold in
death. 1t was also stabbed, beaten and bruised
From the fact that all the victims Were found
divested of their shoes, il is believed the mur
der was committed when they were preparing
10 retire, which, according to their custom,
must have been an early hour in the evening
Upon n search of the premises being made
about $50 in money was found, which the
murderer failed to lay his hands upon, but n
married daughter who lives in the vicinity
states that II was supposed Mr.. Squibb had
500 or $50 in has possession, and il is probable
that the robber obtained $3.50 or S45O-a small
recompense for his guilt as assassin.
