OF all the foolish causes assigned by those who
wish to find an excuse for the Scribner murder,
the idea that he was religious is the thinnest. The
insane dodge although that is extremely gauzy,)
is more substantial and reasonable than that.
Speaking of this, the Lewiston Gazette says:
The Augusta murderer is the latest recruit to
the noble army Of "quickened consciences." 1t
seems from his confession, that he was troubled
with religion. He saws there were two churches
and they both wanted him." He probably wishes
people to think that was the cause of his butcher
ing his children.
