or more accessions to the church,

Rev. Mr.. and Mrs. Pulford and
their son, Decatur, are attending
commencement exercises at Racine
College, to see their son Schuyler
graduated. They will visit friends
at Portage City before returning.
Last Wednesday morning a
strange and unaccountable death oc-
Cured in the town of Lima. The
victim was the daughter of Hiram
Bickford of Miffiin. She was mar
ried the preceding Monday to Lewis
Sisley and went with him to live in
a small one story and a-half house
with Mr.. and Mrs. Hamilton; the
latter being, we understand, Mr.. Sis
leyR mother. They all occupied as
a bedroom the room upstairs, there
being but one, their beds being sep
arated by a curtain. They retired
as usual Tuesday night, Mr.. Sisley
placing Colts revolver under his
pillow. Soon thereafter a charivari
party paid them an outside visit.
After little parleying the party left
apparently in good humor, and no
further disturbance occurred to dis
turb the slumbers of three of the
sleepers. In the morning Mr.. Sis
ley arose but found his wife missing.
He attended to some chores, and his
wife not putting in an appearance
he went to seek her, and found her
one hundred yards from the house
lying on her back, her hands across
her abdomen, and her husbands re-
volver by her side. Justice Gardiner
of this city summoned Jury, and
with DR.. Robertson proceeded to the
place. l have not learned the re-
suit Of the Coroner's inquest. -Four
bullets were found in the body;
either of three would have proven
fatal. Two shots passed through
the left lung, one through the heart,
the other just penetrated the skin.
She was dressed, even to a necktie.
Her clothing was partially burned.
Was this a murder? o.
