Of Freeman In his deed and one of
his chief abettors, who after depos-
lting the casket near the altar an
nounced his intention OF addtessinr
the audience. bat this he was bre.

The services were brief and ap.

Rev. Mr.. Williams, pastor Of the
Methodist church. The AdventiBts
who In their blind superstitions;
fully believed that the dead child
would he reSurrected or bodily

An Insane Father,,Kills His Five
Year Old Child.

BOSTON, May 2.-Sometime yes
terday Charles F. Freeman, of Po-
casset, Mass. in freak of religious
frenzy killed his five year old dauGh-
ter, Edith. The man is a second
adventist and had become greatly
excited duIin the last few days
while attending a series Of revival
meetings. About a week ago he
claimed to have received a "won-
derful revelation" and has not eat
ten Or slept siGce. He says that the
Lord directed him to sacrifice his
little daughter and declared that
she will rise again in 8 days. The
little one was trans6xed with a
knife by her insane father and her
blood was poured out upon q table
which was improvised as an altar.
Freeman has driven every one from
his house and has not yet been Se
cured. He has locked and barred
the doors and windows, and being
supplied with firearms he threatens
death to any cne who shall interfere.
LATER.-It is stated that the Se-
cond Adventists held meeting a.
Freeman's house the same afternoon
and appeared TO wish the affair kept
quiet. Freeman carried the mail as
usual and showed mo signs OF In
sanity. The cause of the terrible
deed appears to be religious excite
ment alone. Freeman is now at
his residence in charge of Officer
Redding and DIR. G. j. Wood, oi
PocasSat.
He informs a reporter to-day thai
he was told by God to offer Edith,
his young and beautiful daughter,
as sacrifice to Him, and that III
did so, as God would not stay hi'
his hand. He had to do His com.
mand. and He would justify him il
his act,

circle of the defense directly oppo-
site to her, yet their eyos never
met, she gazing downWards, while
he was ever engaged IN CONVERSE
ion with his counsel. They pre-
sented a striking resemblance in
features, but what the father lack
ed I'm cranial affectation che daugh-
ter fully made up for in blooming
healthy looking cheeks. Sitting
face to face, they presented % spec
tacle calculated to awake q shud-
der at the fuctuation of life-a
daughter testifylng against the life
of her father, for her testimony was
the most strongly corr'borative OF
Peters, the principal witness, and
doing it in IN exceedingly cool and
calm manner, She made u very
good witness, answering questions
In a plain, straightforward way,
using the German language. Dur
ing her testimony, the poor girls
feelings overcome her, and she burst
into violent weeping, restraining
herself with difficulty at times suffl-
cient to enable her to talk. Her
position under the circumstances
was certainly a very trying one.
and she bore up under 1t with re-
markable fortitude.
The representatives of the insur'
ance companies testified as to the
policies taken out on the life Of
Joseph Raber and of their assign
ment to four of the prisoners that
the last premium was about to be-
come due at the time of Raber's
death /; that word was sent them
and the necessary death proofs were
made out.
The window sash through which
Peters saw the act committed was
exhibited on the part OF the COM
mOnwealth, and proof shown that
it was the same window, but that a
pane of glass which was considera'
bly, broken at the time had since
been put in The sash, which compar-
ed favorably with the others. made
so by greasing and smoking it.
Witnesses for the defense testi'
fed that it was the same pane OF
glass. One of theories set up by
the defense was that the bottom OF
the creek where Raber fell in was
stony and rocky, and that Raber
came to his death by falling upon
the stones. In rebuttal the com"
monwealth proved by number OF
witnesses who had known the
stream for q number of years, that
the bottom of the creek at the point
of the drowning was never stony,
but on the contrary vas a sandy and
muddy bottom, so that one m"y
Justly suppose that the stones were
put into the creek by some one
friendly to the prisoners when the
terrible revelations were made.
A day and a half was consumed
in the arguments of counsel to the
Jury. Col. Goblin, one of the cGun-
sci for the defense, and formerly
from Sunbury, spoke rapidly for
two hours, and did full justice to
his side of the case as well as TO
