very serious, and was communicated to
me in the confidential relations wh::h
Beecher and Tilton formerly held dwithme,
and I cannot and will not disclose it,
except through the procass of the law, or
unless I am forced to do it to relieve N.Y.

emily to outline my testimony for them,
and under their pressure said that I
would think about it; but, after consulta-
tion with my counsel and number of
gentlemen whose opinions I value very
highly, shall adhere to my former con-
clusion to keep strict silence as to what
know. I signed the tripartite covenant
against my judgment, and having signed,
have kept the pledge, and that is better
than the other gentlemen who signed it
have done. Mr.. Claflin brought the paper

Mr.: Vanney entered tho hozse and
found bis wife and daughter lying on the
floor anc weltering in their blood. He
lifted them to the bed and was about to
dash on his horse to Cuba for Z surgeon,
when q man rode up to tho house evi.
dent:y in great excitement.
'Have you seen anything Of Jim Lsf.
ferty !" he asked, as Vannov started on

has been found dead in her bed at Rock

E.lloped to Cuba, got physician, and
pye the alarm.
Coroner Young was notified of the
quadruple tragedy, and took charge of the
bodies of the murderer and his grand.
mother. The former was buried in pas.
ture not far from Vannoy's. At an in
quest held on the body Of Mrs. Lafferty
it was elected that her grandson
had been seen lounging around
her house on Saturday, and had
not been there for some time
before. He was seen to leave on Satu,.

Of him until he appeared at Vannoy's.
The deceased old lady was known to have
about $3.50 in her house, which she had
saved from her earnings, and which she
had lain by for her funeral expenses.
None of this money could be found at the
house, but nothing which could be identi.

Mrs. Vannoy and her daughter are
quite comfortable, and the doctor thinks
they may both recover. The family is 4
highly respectable one. : and
Lafferty, it seems, had presumed upon
their kindness and generous treatment Of
him while in their employ in making his
overtures to Mss Vannoy, who ridiculed
his pretensions.
