motive and killed. The mule was also
hurled into eternity. Wakefield Starkey,
although perfect gentleman on the street,
was a perfect tyrant of the deepest dve.
Without any provoeation whatever he used
to beat his wife and loek her up in the
wardrobe; hence, when she heard of bis
death, it was not so much case of heavy
bereavemt ns as it was of mitigated
affection. As the engineer of the loco.
motive was clearly to blame for
