Williamson's Crime.
The crime for which Williamson was
convicted, or rather the crimes, for there
were three known murders chargeable
to him at the time of the arrest, was one
of the most heinous ever recored in the
criminal annals of the state. Not con-
tent with the murder of his wife, he
foully murdered his benefactors, father
and son, and then pretended to make an
effort to destroy himself.
On May &c, 1890, the body of Jeffer-
son Moore, an old farmer, was found
buried in the dirt of cellar beneath his
residence. His son, aged twenty-nine
years, had been missing for a week, and
the neighbors continuing the search,
found the young mans body buried in
shallow grave about one hundred yards
from the house.
Williamson was accused of the crime
and confessed to having murdered the
men who had on many occasions be-
friended him. He claimed to have been
paid $500 to murder them He would
give no reason other than he wanted
them out of the way. 1t is believed he
wished to secure possession of their
farm. After Williamson incarceration,
it was shown that he was also wife
murderer having killed her while being
on farm six miles from Sedalia. The
body was found buried in the garden
near the house shortly after William,
