Driven to His Death by an Unnatural
Son,

JERSEY Cry, Jan. 5.--ln a dresry
looking matched hovel, built of mud and
and straw, and located deep in the forest
at Mount Freedom, near Morristewn, Nj. i,
the dead mutilsted body Of John Beach. an
old charcoal burner Of the hamlet, was
found recently. Two gunners were at
trscted by the peculiar appearance Of the
hut, and upon looking through the little
aperture that served ~ 4 window made
n horrible discovery. On . pallet of
straw in the center of the hut lay the
old man, his face = purple blue and his
features horribly distorted. His son, who
lives In comfortable circumstances at
Mount Freedom, is suspe cted OF being, in
= measure, responsible for the old msn's
death. Heretofore the sons residence hsd
been his fathers home, when the parent
WAS not engaged at his trade Of charcoal
burning. At such times old Beach lived in
the hut in the woods. This stands near
the burning pit. and is filthy and almost
uninhabitable hovel. Beach who was
about seventy years old, had been in
the habit of making this old hut his
home during the Winter months. At the
first indication of cold weather, two months
ago. he quilted his sons homo and moved
to the woods. His old age and weakened
constitution made him susceptible to every
cold blast that swept through the forest and
around his hut. Not until week ago did
he succumb TO the hard climate. Then,
when he could no longer stand up under the
load Of disease that afflicted him. ne
crawled away from the forest and t>tterel
down the village road to bis old home.
But there was no reception for him His
non met him at the door and, despite hi
| sad condition, refused to admit him. The
old man fell down on the stoop. he again
endeavored to gain admttance to the house.
but the heartless lad again repulsed him
and drove him from the door. Terribly
! tortured by the cold, the poor msn endeav-
| ored to shield himself from the keen blasts
| oy seeking shelter behind tree. Fear,
ing further trouble from his father,
the ungrateful son bundled the old man on
| a hand-sled and csIted him back to the
hovel. Leaving him there, he returned to
his snug home and forgot the suffering Of
his parent, He is notknown to have visited
| him again, nor is it known that anyone else
visited the hovel until the two farmers ac-
ciden,ally encountered 1t yesterday in their
rambles.
The news Of the horrible discovery soon
reached the village, and crowds hocked to
the place. The ftiGened corpse was car
| ried to Deighhoring farmers, and Coroner
| Uughson OF Morristown was notified. He
drove FIVE miles through the snow to the
spot. The villsRer. are indignant at the
hexriless sons conduct towards his father,
| and demands have been made to the au-
thori,ies for a thorough investigation oi
