Poisoning BY wholesale.

A correspondent writing from Kinzer's
station, Lancaster county, furnishes the
Express the following: 1t is seldom the
tranquility of our community is disturbed
or its inhabitants startled at anything oc-
curing within its limits ; but we have to
chronicle a case, which, from the respect
ability of the parties concerned, is likely
to create a sensation, not only In the neigh
borhood in which it happened, but through
out the whole county. The facts as we
hear them are as follows
There lived in Salisbury township, Lam
caster county, man by the name of Henry
Eaby, miller by occupation, and a we'll
to-do and highly respected citizen. He
was also member of the Mennonite church,
of which sect there is predominance in
this section of the county. About two
years ago his wife and two children were
taken suddenly sick about the same time
and in the same manner. Medical aid was
at once summoned, and the physicians pro-
nounced the symptoms, in all three cases,
those of poison. How the poison got into
the system of the victims was mystery
yet to be solved. The Physicians exam
ined the premises, and gave their opinion
that it might have come from the well,
which was adjacent to a stagnant pool of
water, known as the dam. Mr.. Eaby had
the well thoroughly cleansed and the sup
posed evil removed. The victims, however,
IL Il; ;a1 fto,. Aa1ri cio Oh R,,t oh
two months ago Mr.. Eaby, after eating his
supper, was taken with sudden sickness,
and remarked while drinking the last cup
of Coffee at the table, that it tasted so
bitter and was different from the former
cup he had drank and inquiring of the
others if theirs tasted so to them, they an
swering in the negative. The same ply
sician who attended the Others that had
died was dispatched for, and upon his AZ
rival asked him if he (Eaby) had any
enemies--to which those who were around
answered "that he had not an enemy to
their knowledge that every one liked
him." The physician said the man was
poisoned. He fingered for few days and
died. 1t is now confidently believed that
the whole family were Intentionally poison
ed, and thousand-tongued rumor has been
industriously at work for some time circu-
lating stories of the most exciting char
acter. But it is generally conceded in the
neighborhood that circumstances point
very strongly to the guilt of a certain party
in the vicinity. Although the name of the
suspected party is in our possession we do
not mean to mention it unless criminal pro-
ceedings are instituted. We await devel-
opInents.
