Wringing . Child's Neck.
THE TERRIBLE CRIME 10 WHICH GEO. JR1FRIr CON-

FESsKs-DIABOLICAL CRUELTY.
Geo. jeffrey, now under indictment for murder In
the first degree jointly with his wife, at Riverhead
Long Island, has been quite Ill several days Yes
terday afternoon he sent for the district attorney
and made clean breast OF his crime He says he
killed his w1fes child by holding its body between
his knees and twisting its head one way until he
thought he had broken it's neck, and then twisting
the head the other way TO make sure he had killed
lon y t n1 ed ng the child for
cruelties and not be held guilty OF crine failing
he at last broke its neck. He hated the child be-
fered more or less with his wife earning money for
him. He had no other motive for the crime. JEFF
trey and his wife have been in Jail since August
The child, whose murder is now confessed, had
been subjected to the most brutal treatment. Dolly
Pollard was its mother. She was IL wears old when
the child was born. jeffrey married her with fun
knowledge OF all the facts Neither had an affec-
ton for the child and Jeffrey repeatedly objected
to supporting it. Dolly went to work TO obviate
ing, leaving it alone on the floor, and not return
until evening. A cup Of water and either bread or
crackers were left beside it, and the child could eat
or Starve. 1t was under three years and not likely
TO feed itself. When jeffrey and his wife Quarreled
II was common thing for him 10 throw
the child at her. and very often it received painful
Injuries from this cause On one occasion Its arm
was broken, and the bones were allowed to knit
irregulary, resulting in deformed hand. When
jeffrey came home and found the child impeding
the entrance TO the house. he would kick It out OF
the way. One OF these kicks landed the Child in
the clstern, and 1t would probably have been al
lowed to drown but for the presence OF Dolly IS
father. Jeffrey threatened 10 Kill his fatherin-law
for interfering. Old Pollard renewed the affray,
armed with a shotgun. but Jeffrey judicoIsly kept
out or range. There was a cat in the house. This
jeffrey would hold by the hairs OF its head with
one hand. and with the other hand hold the child
by the hair OF It's head TO see which could endure
the torture the greater while. At other times he
would whirl the child through space by holding
fast OF leg or an arm, never being particular as
10 what OBJECTS Its body came in contact WITH nor
caring about the consequences. In spite of
manifold crueltes, the little one chung tenaciousy
to life.
