1t will be remem bsred that mention was
made few days since OF the marriage OF
woman nance Milan to fellow named Mar.
tin Whelan, the alliance having been con-
tracted while the formers husband was un-
dergoing a short term of incarceration in the
Brldewell for commission OF q breach of the
peace. Mrs. Milaa's daughter, a young wo-
man sixteen years Of age. dsgusted at her
mothers conduct, swore out a warrant for
bigamy against her parent and caused her ar
rest, but upon the case being called a. the Pc.
lice ourt, the daughter falling to appear, the
prisoner was discharged from custody.
NOW comes the horrible sequel. The woman
returned to The sbaniy where he and her hus-
band had been living for many years, and
where her husband, who had been liberated
from the Brdewell, was residing with his
daughter. The bigamist, not satisfied with
the crime OF which she had already been
guilty. and finding that having two us bands
one of whom she hated. was 4 most unhappy
state for woman TO live in. determined to rid
herself OF one Of them by fair means or by foul
As there seemed NO prospect Of the former
means coming TO hand, the desperate creature
made up her mind TO murder the object of
her aversion, and thus free herself OF him in
this world forever. For some DAYS past Mi.
Ian had been drinking very hard, and has
constantly been in 4 haif inebrla'ed con :.

asking her mother what she was about, the

did its work faithfully, for Milan. after having
unsuspectipgly swallowed the death dealing q
