OLD TIMES IN SUNNY ITALY.
It has transpired, too, that Borfott ana Giovan-
na knew each other long since In Italy. The Tor
mer lived in Piedmont where his father carried on
the shoe business as the son did in Dover. Gio-
rama lived near by in the country, and
made her purchases at the elder Boriot-
ti,s shop, and SO they early formed an
acquaintance. But Giovanni married, and
had child born, while Boriotti came to Amer
ica and then her husband died and she too en-
barked for the Western Eldorado. Lusignani was
born near Genoa and first saw Giovanna few
months ago. 1t has also transpired that he worked
in Boriotti's shop in New York for few weeks
some two years ago.
The inquest was resumed at ten O'Clock A. M. to-
day. The States Attorney, Mr.. Frederick De Mott,
appeared in person, and the good-looking Free
holder, Henry McDavit, occupied a prominent
place. The following Is the principal testimony
