the town Of Lyman Monday afternoon. The
particulars of the affair are, that young fell
low named Charles Witham. belonging in
Kennebunkport, called at the house of Mrs.
Abigail Foss, and knocking at the door was
answered by Mrs. Foss, who is an ntirm old
lady seventy-f four years old. He asked for
drink of water, which was furnished him, at
ter which he entered into conversation with
the lady. Suddenly, without any warning, he
felled her to the floor with blow from his
fist, and then. in spite of the piteous prayers
for mercy, and the violent struggles of his
aged victim, brutally ravished her. He then
drove rapidly away. With tottering steps
the feeble woman made her way to the near
est neighbors and related the fearful story Of
the outrage. The neighborhood was soon
aroused, and large party of men started out,
declaring that if they caught him they would
hang him to the nearest tree. Unfortunate
ly he alluded them, and up to the present
time has not been arrested. He was last
seen about nine o'clock Monday night near
Greenwood cemetery, Biddetord, where he
left his horse. 1t is thought he took the mid.
night train for the West. A liberal reward
will be paid for his capture. Witham is
smooth faced young man, about twenty-five
wears old.

this remark because that gentleman when in

defeat Of Speaker Blaine and the success OF
the democratic ticket in Somerset county.
A politician that cannot make more accurate
estimates in matters so plainly evident, is
hardly the man to base predictions on so i'm
