from the town OF Brown:
A iendish crime has been committed
In our midst. the victims being an in
offensive old couple living in their Sc
cluded home a mile east OF this village.
Henry Nurre is a wealthy, retired farmer
widely known in this section and for
many years has held the Office OF justice
Of the peace. He was very eccentric in
his habits and the rigid economy prac>
ticed py both himself and wife verged
upon penury. 1t was generally under
stood that he always had great deal OF
money in his house at all times. having
no confidence in banks. and this Is prob
ably what melted the dastsrdly deed.
The crime was committed between
Tuesday afternoon and Thursday morn
ing. IL is uncertain when. but all
signs indicate that il must have been
at least as hours ago. When found this
morning Nurre was lying on his back in
the kitchen of his house rigid in death,
with cut about two inches long and
about four deep Immediately under the
point OF his left jaw. He had bled in &.
ternally and probably lived but a few
minutes. He was sitting at the table in
his sitting room writing when attacked,
ms Is shown by two pools of blood on the
floor beside his chair, and got up and
staggered 10 the kitchen where he fell.
His wife evidently terrified by the as
sault fied up stairs and barricaded her
self In an cas-; room where the villain OF
villains followed her. and the appearance
OF the room indicates that a fear
ful struggle took place before she
was overpowered. The whole room
has the appearance of slaughter
house, blood being daubed all over the
hoor and walls. the bed clothing being
soaked. She was finally knocked sense
less by two heavy blows on the back of
the head which crushed her skull. She
was still alive when found today, but
there rs slight prospects of her recovering
consciousness. Physicians are caring for
her. but she will certainly die.
Theo. Mailman. son-in law of the MUIR
dered couple, offers 81 900 for the appre-
hension OF the murderers. There is no
clue whatever TO the perpetrators. The
motive was robbery. as the comb nation
OF his safe had been badly battered by
them and the house ransacked.
