BOSTON, August 81. Further Information
in regard 10 the murder and attempted sui
eide at 81 Edenboro' street. This city, last
night, shows that about nine weeks ago the
couple, Francis {. p ne aud wife, came to
the house and bred an attic room, paying
The rent thereof in advance. Not much
was known OF them, but They were always
apparently on the best Of terms, and seemed
very attentive to each Other. Mr.. Pease
had no employment, but was IN search
OF something to do; yet he APP
peared 10 have considerable money,
aud always paid the bills at his
lodging in advance. The couple stayed at
the house about three weeks and then went
away. but il l. not known where. On last
Tue. day they returned and Teengaged the
room formerly occupied by them, paying
for IL, as before, in advance. At times
Pease was seen intoxicated, and 1t is be-
Heved be was hard drinker; yet the peo-
pie in The house say they have never heard
any quarrel between him and his wife. AT
about II O'Clock l9st night the occupants OF
the house were startled by hearing reports
from pistol. and an Investigation
revealed the fact that they came from
the room Of Pease. The door Of
the room was found to be locked and
barricaded with trunk. IL was forced
open by policemen and the dead body OF
Mrs. PeaSe was found lying on the floor,
and near her the lnsensi6e form OF her
husband. DR.. Cabot was summoned, aud
after the wounds Of Mr.. Pease had been
hastily dressed be was conveyed TO the city
hospital. The murder was evidently the
deed OF freDZjed man. There are four
bulet-wcunds on the body OF Mrs. Pease-
one to the right Of the left arm-pif, one over
the heart, one in front and one back OF the
right ear. II is thought there is also an
other wound on the body. PeaSe has four
wounds, and will probably die. Two OF
the wounds are at the base OF the right
ear, one in the left breast, and one in the
forehead. Tue crime is undoubtedly due
to Pesse's habits OF intoxicstion. just
before the shooting persons in the house
heard Dir. Pease go mp stairs, and then
heard Mrs. Pease cry out. The woman had
probably been lying on The bed in the room
before he entered, as she was partially
undressed. Pease bad bis coat and shoes
of. The woman was probably fhot while
trying 10 escape from the room. Both came
from ROckand, Me-, at which place about
two years ago Pease married BIZ wife, who
was but eighteen years old. They had
child about ten months old. now in the care
OF Mrs. Pease's mother, at RQckland, Me.
