The Merchants Union Express
Company had, about five months ago,
as messenger, running between this
city and Cincinnati, a young man
named Fred. Babcock, alias Barrett
He suddenly disappeared, after taking
81, 900 from one of the packages in
his care. 1t seems that he went to
Boston, engaged in i0is0n with a
cyprian called Mollie Nelson, and
spent all the money upon her, after
which she gave him the cold
shoulder. Enraged at this treat
ment, he procured a pistol and
shot at Mollie three times,
but being drunk did not hit her He
then shot himself through the cheek,
the ball lodging in his head, where
it now remains. He was taken to the
Suffolk Countyjail, and finally recov-
cred from his wound, when a charge
of assault with a deadly weapon was
preferred against him; but owing to
the flight Of Mollie Nelson. his trial
was postponed. A short time ago it
was discovered that he was the per-
son who had committed the express
robbery, and he was deliveyed up to
the authorities of Illinois, and is now
in Jail here.
