general search WAS made yesterday

found on the margin of small
stream about five hundred yards

runs parallel to the roadway leading
to the steamboat landing, and her head
lay in the water. Abundant traces of
blood were found on the road, and it
is presumed that her murderer or
murderers attacked her while pass

last summer, by Mr. Gowing upon his

called out, "The cows are in the

man then crept to the bed room Of
Mrs GOwing, knowing that she was
the only other adult in the house
The samo awful fate was hers. He
beat and cut her so horribly that she
survived but very short time. The
double murder accomplished, the
Frenchman rifed the house for the
money ard valuables which no sup
posed it to contain. How much he
found and carried away is not known.
But his crime had not been unObserv-
ed. In tho same room where her
mother was murdered was fright
ened little girl, who through the whole
tragedy lay in her trundlebed, afraid
to speak, dimly realizing that there
was some great trouble, but knowing
not what to do. She heard and re-
coVnized tho Frenchman's voice, call-
ing her father To the door; beard tho
