MORTON THE RESURRECTIONIST,
where He Was and What He Did
While i'm This City.

The citizens of Cincinnati have been SC
much excited and have talked so much, or
learning the particulars of the finding OF
Hon. John Scott Harrisons body in the
Ohio Medical College, that it is not too late
even now to give some information as to
where that notorious resurrectionist, CDR.
Morton" alias Gabrielle, kept himself while
at his ghoulish work in and around this
city.
! Morton came here on the 1st of March,
and took quarters at the corner of Vine
and Ninth streets.
He gave the proprietor of the boarding
house, Mr.. Meyer, to understand that he was
a physician and intended to settle here. A
young and handsome blonde accompanied
the doctor, and was passed off as his wife.
He also had two assistants with him.
1t was his custom, while in the city to
leave his boarding house regularly every
evening at s o'clock and return about 4 in
the morning When Mrs. Meyers one day
asked him why he also spent his nights
outside, Morton said that he was passion
ately fond of fishing, and that he occupied
himself at this sport during the night. She
noticed that every time he left her house
the wagon on its return would invariably
be covered with mud. Morton always took
two great sacks with him when leaving.
The woman whom Morton called his
wife" very often accompanied him on his
Fishing" expeditions, and sometimes dis
guised herself in male attire. The two re-
NAMED at this clearinghouse until the day
when Mr. Harrison's body was discovered
in the Ohio Medical College.
Then with exceedingly suspicious haste
they packed their trunks and left for the
c., H; q d. Depot, their destination being
Canada.
The doctor, it is alleged, raised and sold
over thirty stitfs while in our midst. He is
said to belong to the aristocracy, and has
several influential relatives living in Wash
ington, D. c. His companion was simply
his mistress his wife, whom he has desert
ed, being in the employ of the Government
at Washington. Morton, it is said, was sew
eral years ago medical student at Ann
Arbor Michigan, where young Devin's
body, one of his victims, was recently
found

A Few Things that We Know.

We know that a disordered stomach OF
liver produces more suffering than any other
cause. We know that very few physicians
are successful in their treatment Of these
disorders. We know that DaCosta's Radi-
cal Cure will without the shadow of doubt,
almost Immediately relieve and permanent
ly cure all of these distressing symptoms
We know of thousands who are willing to
testify that what we say is true to the letter.
We know that if you give it fair trial you
will let us add your name to the cloud of
witnesses Will you give it trial, and do
it now? Trial size only 25c. Sold by John
Keeshan, Sixth and Walnut streets; J. D.

Prof. Parker's Pleasant Worm Syrup is

touching ritual of Scottish Rite Masonry.
The remainder of the ceremony was CON
