Mrs. billiard proposed to tell all
about the murder, then plead guilty
to murder in the second degree and
accept whatever sentence the Court

room crying and sobbing loud
enough to be heard thirty feet dis

STORY OF TIE MURDER.
When Court reconvened at 9
O'Clock this afternoon every seat was
occupied, both inside and outside
bar and aisles being crowded. Mrs.
billiard came in few minutes later
crying, and again buried her face ia
her handkerchief. All eyes were
upon her, and she seemed to realize
that fact At 2:l0 she was called to
the stand and after short conver-
sation with her lawyer, said: II am
thirty-two years old; lived in
Bartholomew's bouse two wears; was
criminally intimate with him there
and at the last place we lived. My
husband intended to move to Mercer
County, and he told Bartholomew
that we were going. Bartholomew
was at our house the night before
my husband was shot. He had
billiards. gun with him, and said
when he went into the room for it
that he would take the nipple off it,
and come next night between | and
2 O'Clock, and that he would make
the chickens cackle and that my self
and husband should then come out
in the yard; that he would be at the
big cherry tree and shoot my hus-
bard that night.

THE GENERALS ILLNESS.
The Generals illness, which the
physicians agreed was the culmina-
tion Of the result OF diseased
condition of the Kidneys, FROM which
he suffered for several months, first
took an alarming turn on Friday
night last. when he was seized with
n chill. DR.. Read who was sum-
moned, at once found him suffering
from uraemia, complicated with
great physical weakness,
nervous prostration and mental de-
preston. Saturday and Sunday the
patients condition was quite critic
al. Monday found him resting
more comfortably, and Tuesday
showed mark change for the
worse.
Wednesday morning he was much
worse. and DR., Read looked upon
the case as hopeless. in the after
noon DR.. John Tyson. Dean Of the
University of Pennsylvania, at the
request OF Mrs. Hartranft and DR..
Read, visited the patient for con-
sultation. DR.. tyson agreed with
DR. Read that the symptoms Of pneu-
monla had decreased to such an ex>
tent that it was 10 longer ? fact or
in the General : condition and that
be was threatened with uraemia.
DR.. Tyson recommended no change
of treatment, feeling that all that
medical science might devise was
being done.
RAPID DECLINE AND DEATH.
Last night there was observed -
marked change for the worse, and
Dir. Read informed the family for
the first time that recovery was i'm
possible. he visited the patient
three times during tho night, ut S
O'Clock, II and .. After the latter
visit he gave il rs his opinion that
dissolution would occur within
twelve hours.
Many anxious inquircrs applied
ut the door Of the Generals home
this forenoon for information as to
his condition, and all received the
whispered rel,iy; "ho's dying"
Finally at noon word came that he
was dead. As soon rs it became
known that the General was dead
The Court House bell was tolied,
flags were run ont at half mast from
the Grand Army headquarters and
alI club rooms, and the insignia of
mourning was displayed at various
public places. While it was known
that he was in very precarious
condition for several days past the
people were ignorant Of his real
condition, and the first announce
ment proved severe shock to the
community. The General was held
IN the highest esteem here at his
home, and only words of kindness
are heard amongst persons discus
sing his death

known TO the settlers their danger when
about TO be attacked--is well known 10 all

OF Harrison is already indelibly written

ninth President of the United States--was
the grandfather OF General Ben. Harrison,

Harrison family is but another proof OF the

turn to healthy administration OF public
affairs so characteristic OF the earlier years
Of government. A similar desire has been
