from a livery stable. The mare wore
small interfering shoes, and shoe taken
from her feet was applied to the track
made in the woods, near the scene OF
the murder, ard it fitted exactly. A
plaster cast of the shoe was taken and
was compared with thousands OF horse
shoes, without finding one that would
90 in it. Hartman was lodged in Jail.
Some farmers, coming to Indianapo-
lis the afternoon of the murder, met
Young and his wife going in their car
rage in the direction of the place where
thew were murdered, with a lady sitting
in the same seat with Mrs. Young. A
few rods behind the carriage, Silas Hart
man. driving the livery stable mare, was
seen by the same parties. He was recog-
nized. but when they attempted to speak
to him he turned his head and drove
by them without responding to their
| salutation. Several of these witnesses
testified that Nancy E. Glenn, the wife
of leading grocer in Indianapolis, was
the lady who occupied the seat with Mr..
Younsis wife in his carriage. Silas
Hartman, who followed in the buggy,
was her brother. A close watch was
placed upon Mrs. Clem's movements,
| but her arrest was delayed for three
weeks. This delay in her arrest insured
her conviction.
The confederate, Abrams, was in Jail,
and had difficulty in raising money to
pay attorneys fees. He sent for his
| brother, and directed him togo secretly
to Mrs. Clem's house and get several
thousand dollars, and to tell her that
the money must come" The brother
obeyed these directions, and Mrs. Glenn,
Welding to the demand, went into a
cellar, where she had package of bills
concealed in stove-pipe hole in Chin
ney, and gave Abrams brother several
thousand dollars, and told him to tell
his brother in Jail not to send for more
money, as it would excite suspicion.
The murdered man was known to have
had over $1,000 on his person a few
hours before he was murdered. On the
day of the murdar Abrams, who pur-
chased the gun, went to Mrs. Clems
house, from which she was absent a
good portion of the afternoon, and re-
manned there till she returned, and re-
ceived large sum of money from hel
Immediately upon her return.

brides and threats she procured hel
niece, her sister-in-law, and an Irish
servant girl to swear before the Crane
