Weldon.

Having been for some time in store in
Springfield, Illinois, his old associates there
have come forward with some statements
in regard to him in the Journal of that city.
Mr.. L. 81. Coleman, his employer, cOnsid-
cred him bitter Democrat, but reticent as
to his opinions Mr.. George Z. MaxOn, who
was most intimate with him, says there was
nothing of bravado about him, and nothing
that would lead any one to suspect he
would be guilty of a crime. Others state
the same. He was dressy, fond of society
and temperate in his habits. They can
only account for his act by concluding that
his opinions being ultra he was hired to
commit it.
From the Cincinnati Gazette the report is
that he was employed with w. H. An,
drews g. Co. about six months. He was
eccentric in his drinking, being fond Of
new drinks, particularly of kummel He
also frequen ted dance houses and low and
vicious company for social enjoyment. He
was not vicious himself, so it is said, but
during drinking, which appeared tC
| be gaining on him, was good nstured. He
left there at the solicitation of a former
| employer.
