Last week the relatives and friends
of the dead met at that place to clear
off and beautify the cemetery grounds.
While engaged at the work some one
found on the premises the following

We lie here still
Around this hill,
Almost by friends forgotten.
The wooden keep,
Meath which we sleep,
Is all worn down and rotten.
The church house, too,
Once nice and new,
Has been so much neglected,
That passers by,
May truly cry,
'This place is i'll respected"
Where are the friends
Who used to bend
Their weeping forms above us?
We knew then how
(But not so now
Those good old friends did love us.
But we will not complain
Should things thus remain,
But would ask this request to be granted
That our friends come and build
A new house on the hill,
And few weeping willows be planted,
But now we will pause,
And submit this great cause.
To our friends calm consideration,
And we hope, ere tits long,
To hear the glad song
OF the Armstrong new church house dedi
cation.

A New Church Wanted.
d. BROWN.

An effort will soon be made to build
a new church house at the old Arm
strong, or Sulphur Spring meeting
house, near George Etter's. This is a
commendable public enterprise and
should not fail. Around the old dilapi-
dated church house lie the mortal re-
mains of many dear relatives and
friends of the citizens for miles around.
Some of the oldest citizens, among
whom are some of the first settlers
of this county, with their many de-
scendants, are buried there, and will
continue to be buried there, and it is
but fit and proper that a handsome
union church house be erected on the
old site, free for the use of all
denominations. A union church house
is what is wanted. Through the gen.

plot of the murder was designed by Marion in
Illinois before his return home, and some think
his purpose was also to murder his father and
brother Thomas, and thus come INTO possession
and Sheriff Payne say there has been a
great change in public sentiment in Perry
county in favor Of the father and surviving son,
though there are some inconsistencies in the
fathers and husbands statement that induce
OF RS to believe that he is as guilty as Marion.
1t is said that the old man and his wife did not
live happily together
Detective Hales theory of the murder is that
Mrs Henderson,, while riding in the wagon with
her son Maron, was first shot by him in the head
with the revolver he took out of his satchel at
home after the murder. That he had taken an
ak with him in the wagon to assist him. which
he used in inflicting the wounds on his mothers
shoulder and breast and cutting Off her head,
before stripping the body and throwing 1T into
the cistern He could have done all this without
help as he was large, strong man. The shoot
ing was done in the wagon, and then the muir
derer drove to the cid barn to complete the
work of mutilating and disrobing the body. He
had the valise with him in which his murdered
mothers clothes were found, and packed the
clothing in the valise at the barn.
A correspondent who was present and took
part in the lynching of Marion Hendershott at
Troy, Friday nj ght, asserts that during one of
the intervals between the several suspensions
from the beam of the barn, made to extort from
Hendershott a further confession, he was taken
aside when he confessed that his father, mother
and himself all started in a two-iorse wagon for
Grandview, Ind, together, and, upon arriving
at the barn where the murder was committed
his father proposed to stop there and sleep the
remainder of the night. They all LAID down on
the hay, and when his mother went to sleep, his
father arose and shot her through the head
Then his father directed him to remove the body
to a block and cut her head off with ak,
which he did, striking dozen blows. Not being
able to sever the neck, he twisted the head off
carried it to the thcket and trew it as far as he
could. His father assisted in stripping the body
and throwing it into the cistern The bloody
clothing was hid under bridge near Troy. His
father then went back and then next to Tell
City, where the two met This occurred between
L and O'Clock Wednesday morning.
