A TERRIBLE AFFAIR AT EAGLE
BRIDGE, N. Y.
LAFAYETTE wITHERELL COMMITS
MURDER,
He Bids Defiance to the Authorities.

He Bids Defiance to the Authorities.
On Monday morning Lafayette With
erell, formerly resident of Rutland, at
that time conductor on the Rutland and
washington railroad, now resident of
Eagle Bridge, visited neighbours form for
the purpose of purchasing a calf. The
neighbor demanded 81 for the animal,
which Witherell deemed exorbitant, and
leaving the farmer at the barn went to the
house to treat with the farmers wife. To
her he represented that the farmer had
promised him the calf for 81 so, for which
price she allowed him to take the animal.
After concluding this bargain, Witherell
proceeded to the village, where he disposed
OF his purchase very advantageously to
himself, and with the proceeds of the sale
became intoxicated. While in this condi-
ton he was visited at his house by the
neighbor from whom the calf was pur-
chased, upbraided by him for the decep-
ton practised on his wife, and threatened
arrest for false pretenses. This aroused all
the latent fury which had been instiled into
him by the whisky, and seizing knife,
Witherell endeavored to assault the far
mer; but owing to the interference of Mrs.
Witherell, he was prevented, and the
neighbor retired.
STILL THIRsTINa FOR BLOOD.
Witherell still continued violent, how
ever, and after while his wife found it
necessary to call to her assistance T. E.
Holton, and by their united efforts they
succeeded in throwing Witherell on bed
and tying him with ropes. Soon the drunk
en- mans rawlings ceased, and he begged
piteously to be released from his uncom-
Portable position. His pleadings so touch
ed the tender heart of his wife that che at
last complied with his request. No sooner
was he unbound, however, than his sub
dued manner entirely left him and he once
more assumed threatening attitude. Siez-
ing large carving knife from the table he
made furious onslaught on the occupants
OF the room, all of whom escaped unhurt
except Mr. Holton, who was obliged to un-
dergo severe struggle before he could
make his way out of the house. Thus
Witherell was left alone in his apartment,
and fearing that in his wild state he would
do himself an injury, Mrs. Witherell asked
Henry Eddie to enter the room, and, if
possible, secure her husband without harm
ing him.
GOING To HIS DEATH.
To this MIR. Eddie consented, and at once
proceeded to execute his mission. Witherell
anticipated the design on his liberty and
stationed himself behind the door, with the
knife in his hand. AS Edle entered he
sprang upon him and before the poor vic.
tim could realize his position, the steel had
penetrated his body three times. After ac-
complishing his terrible work, Witherell
drove every one from the house, but al
lowed them to remove Edie, and since then
has bid defiance to the authorities who
would arrest him. AS he still retains pos
session of the knife, no one will approach
him. Eddie, his victim, is terribly Injured
and will die

Unfortunately, in those days, respectable

to doubtful schemes, and we do not suppose

The moral perceptions which are 80 buntcd
as 20 be unable to discern any wrong in Il

rob- one man for the benefit of ,Omo other
man or set of men, are the reflex Of that
widespread ubliteration of the proper dis

Those who have money To put out ought to
be familiar with the old adagc. The higher

as implicitly as the promoters Of the nine

seem to imagine.
A little occasional scrutiny Of the novel
methods of tran-acting this outside bust

capitalists would bc worth something to
those concerned. 1t would, of course. entail
some trouble and loss of time TO small three
