Thepeople of Philadelphia we're shocked
on Wednesday by the news of terrible
domestic tragedy. Thomas B. Parker shot
bis wife and then blew his brains out.
The parties moved in the highest social
circles to which wealth could raise them.
Parker was one Of Eve heirs to an estate
Of three millions Of dollars, and be had an
income Of fifty thousand yearly. His wife
had been living with him in peace, if not
in happiness, for twelve years, but jealousy
drove him to the bloody act which closed
the career Of both upon Garth. Whether
the motive had any warrant in fact the
dispatches do not state. The double crime
created much excitement throughout the
city.
