The mystery of the Saco tragedy has at last
been at least partially solved. The sea has
given up its dead, and some light has been
thrown upon the dark transaction. des-
patch from Saco informs us that the body of
Henry L. Joy, who was supposed to be the
murderer of Mary MCarty in Saco, was found
on Sunday by Mr.. Emery, on Goose Rock,
about five miles from Biddeford, and at
coroner's inquest holden yesterday, the body
was fully identified. 1t will be remembered
that Mary M'Carty was the reputed mistress
of JOY, who had wife and family of the
highest respectability living in Saco Joy
had become acquainted with this woman
while at work in Boston a. his trade, he being
mason. On the 2lst of March Joy and his
mistress took a room at the Saco House, in
which they locked themselves and remained
for "a hours. On the morning OF the 18th,
the family of Joy found on their doorsteps
his coat containing 1915, memorandum book
and other articles, and letter informing his
wife that he was about to commit suicide, and
that it would be useless to look for his body
The body of the woman was found on Ferry
Beach on the 9th of April, leading the public
to suppose that Joy had murdered the girl and
fled the country. There was a strong feeling
of indignation existing in Saco and Bddeford
against JOY who had disgraced his family.
The discovery of Sunday shows almost con-
clusively that the parties had reached the
lowest depth Of their disgrace, when life had
become burden to them, and they had de-
liberately determined to add the act of suicide
to their other crimes. 1t seems to be the
prevalent opinion that the act was simulta-
neous and premeditated.
