An Old Lady Killed by the Man
Whose Fortune She Had Made.

Iron the Jersey City Evening Journal.l
About the year 1922 Sarah Mead, a
young lady OF great personal and men
tai attraction, was married in the city
Of New York to L. Ill. Fitch, young
merchant, who settled in Guilford, Che
mango county, engaged in mercantile
business. The immediate family
consisted of Mr.. Fitch and wife,
Mrs. Purdy, sister Of Mrs, Fitch, and
her daughter, Sarah Purdy.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fitch, having no chill
dren, adopted in 1926 youth of 8
years, whom they watchfdlly cared for
during the years Of youth to those Of
manhood. For this child's welfare
they cherished the kindliest feelings
through life, the surviving widow re.
gularly paying him visit, the last in
her 10Th year, hundreds Of miles from
home.
About the year l84S Mr.. Fitch died.
leaving her widow, wealthy, and pos
sessed of all the elements Of truly
noble and Christian woman. A few
years before this Sarah Purdy was
married in New York to young man
of culture and refinement, merchant
named John Y. Hall. lie was not pros
porous in business, failed, and came to
want. Mrs. Fitch, ever generous, in.
vited them to her home. This home
consisted Of nearly 200 acres Of well.
cultivated land and stately mansion,
shaded by trees planted by the fair.
haired youth mentioned above, whose
head is now frosted by the touch of
fifty-hve winters. She gave a deed on
this property to Mrs. Hall, and pur-
chosed a home for herself near by, and
left the home Of her married life.
On Sunday last, Dec. 18th, Mrs.
Fitch was with her sister and niece aud
family on holiday visit. In the mid
die OF the day the sister. and daughter
left the room. Mr.. Hall, while profess.
ing friendship, and without warning.
struck Mrs. Fitch on the back of the
lead with an AK. She fell to the floor
uncsn7cious, and died in an hour. Ia
few minutes Hall went into the other
room and told the sister that Mrs.
Fitch had tainted. He then coolly
wiped the blood from the ak and com
menced to split wood. This murdered
woman was HI guardian angel his
lifelong support and friend.
Reference has been made TO the
adopted youth. Thirty years ago he
settled in IIobokcn. lie has filled
many official positions, snch as super.
intendcnt Of the public schools for sew
eral terms, chief magistrate Of the city,
health commissioner, and various other
offices, with fidelity and marked ability.
His early life was not free from obsta-
Giles and many temptations which would
have diverted and disheartoned many q
young man. TO Mrs. Fitch he was
chiefly indebted for his success in life.
This man is DIR. l.. W. Elder, q highly
respectable physician now living in
lIoboken.

have found out that the most Of
their furniture was shipped from here
to Blisstield, Mich, on the 10Th of
August. On the Goth of
August Mrs. White wrote to Mrs.
Holmes that if they would keep their
promises in the future, she would dc as
they wished. Holmes speaks more de.
hnltely in the above letter Of his future
plans, and answers Mrs. Whites ques.
tons about the few chattels which she
still possessed. The words

be Katie King, and have her SIS nightly.
Mr.. Holmes resolve to avoid such fool
lshness hereafter was undoubtedly wise
under the circumstances, as Mrs. White
held his fate in her hands, and he knew
1t. The sentence, ''you will like Chica.
go, etc, clnches the nail squarely.
Had this part of the letter become de-
tached, and afterwards perused by
stranger, the reader would naturally
conclude that the writer had been adj

forming in the cabinet. The route
which Holmes had planned in this let.
ter was afterward abandoned for good
reasons.
On the 10th of September, at
seance in Blissfeld,
