Shocking Tragedy in New Jersey

shocking Tragedy IN New Jersey.
NORTH HABBERToN, Oct. 2l.-For the
first time in the history of this hamlet the
quiet flow Of local events has been dis
turbed by the violent death of two sisters,
about which there gathers sufficient mys-
terry to battle the Impractical powers OF
Justice of the Peace Stephens.
Clara and Bertha Richmond, orphaned
sisters, were found dead in each Others
arms last Monday morning. Clara died of
poison and Bertha from a heart stab.
Both were unmarried, and had they
never known what love is they would not
to-day be lying side by side beneath the
autumn leaves in the little hillside Gene
terry.
George p. Perrit sought out this Sc
Guided spot about the LIST of August, for
the purpose of reinvigorating his over
taxed energies, so he said. He was not
much over % years old, of genial tcmpera-
ment, regular features and gifted with a
certain well bred v%ivaeity.
As the German house is better calcu-
lated to shelter beasts than men, young
Perrit stayed there only long enough to
persuade the Misses Richmond that he
would make a delightful summer boarder.
He was o recognized as one OF the
family,
The girls had lost both OF their parents,
"Old Man Jake Richmond died two

His daughters, freed from parental
slavery, mourncd their loss but little and
quickly blossomed into two of the fairest
and most lovable sisters that the heart OF
man could dream Of Clara, the eldest,
was tall, stately and of u somewhat i'm
perious nature, She was a blonde of ex-
quisite type, while Bertha, the younger,
was darker, more petite and in her hazel
eyes the trusting gentleness of her pure
soul was plainly reflected.
1t was the old mans freak that Clara
should inherit every dollar Of his hoard.
because, as he said in his will, "she has
the grit and gumption to keep it," II
she married, however, the money was al
to be given to Bertha, whom the old man
thought to be husband proof by reason o.
her umidity and Ill health. When h,
died, however, both timidity and sickness,
vanished.
BY the LIST of September the yillag,
gossipers were busy whispering of the low,

Once Perrit made incidental inquire
