two-inch oak, heavily bound with iron
bands. Upon the lid was the words: Ca
vasiere, Burlington" 1t was 16 by
20 inches. and 20 inches deep.
The contents were found to be of
great historical interest. They comprise
quantity of manuscript in French, thor
oughly watersoaked and nearly reduced to
pulp, yet capable of being translated.
Among other things were the narrative OF
a beautiful woman, evidently creole;
verses of song with music arranged for
guitar; lock of brown hair, and most sin
glllar of all, the f0refnger of the left hand
of woman, which had been cut off at the
third Joint, embalmed and wearing plain
gold ring inscribed with the word ''wife."
One of the papers read as follows:

tensive owner of property there. He was
reputed to be slave trader. and also
owned a fine plantation on the Penn
sylvania side of the Delaware, near
Dunk's Ferry, where he kept slaves.
In the year 1774 he set out for New Or
leans, leaving his affairs in the hands of
Benoist, his agent, and died of yellow
fever on the trip. The contents of the box
are expected to reveal some interesting
points of local history. The box was taken
to Burlington.

Special to the Globe.
EAST NORRIS, Conn.,, July ga ride
through the country surrounding East Nor
ris this morning showed that every road
was posted with farmers armed to the
teeth like cowboys on the plains, watching
for the murderer of pretty Matte Randall.
All sorts of descriptions of the suspected
murderers have gone out and any nervous
looking fellow is in constant danger. The
majority of the weapons carried were very
antique. Many searchers have only hatchets
and clubs. Sheriff Allen of TorringtOn
and his deputy, Chaplin, of Litchfield, have
had several harrangues with the villagers
about justice and that sort OF thing. but
they talk to deaf ears, and have finally
concluded that the best thing they
can do is to join in with the crowd and save
the prisoner when they get him it they can.
Almost every one still believes that the
murderer, Charles Stockwood, is hiding
somewhere in the ten miles OF dense woods
about Lake Benton. Gus johnson, who

summer boarders from Litchfeld came over
and joined the search. They are as furious
as anybody. Stockwood's father is here
and says he cannot believe his son
guilty, but he keeps out of sight
and will not be interviewed. His
only anxiety seems to be that his son will
not get the protection of the law. The be-
reaved and nearly crazed mother in the
house of mourning is bearing up bravely.
The father, whose health is poor, is COM
pletely crushed. The funeral of the beau
tiful victim occurred from the house at 9

flowers. The remains were then taken to
Bridgewater by the hearse. Carriages fol-
lowed with the near friends and relatives.
