wife, Marguerite Troai, on their ranch, twelve
miles east of Calf, on the 22i OF February,
1882, will come up for hearing in Depart

Coroners Jury of having committed the
GIilLEs liz lieu thC SOhhsSs oA4h NANhOu6h
Yigilsnt search was made for him, be was not
captured for fifteen month"; afterwsrd. As
soon as arrested he charged Troai with the
crime, and he was arrested and thrown in
prison. He had an examination before
Judge Armstrong, in Department One of the
Superior Court, and held to answer for the
crime Prior to this the Grand Jury had
found true bill against Lentini, charging
him with the murder. Lentini was tried for
Al. nv he
name of William Rsffety came forward, said
that Lentini was innocent that he witnessed
the murder, and that Troai was the guilty
party, Tue case lasted several days, The
evidence against Lentini was strong, but the
Jury acquitted him on the statements made
by RaffetY. Troai is man upwards of 60
years of age. ard those who know him long
est and best believe that he is innocent and
that his statements are true. Evidence that
was not brought out at the trial of Lentinl
will be produced at the trial of Troai, which
the counsel for the latter claim cannot help
but clear him. That a most foul and brutal
murder WAS committed, all know; and that
the guilty party, whoever he is, will escape
punishment, is the belief of all.
