A few weeks ago, it is known, an

Dow, through her attorney, who is liv'
ing In a small town In southern Ohio
1t is ascertained that she has long
since secured a divorce on the grounds
of desertion andhas again married
The purpose of the correspondence
was to take necessary steps to secure
her dover right in the Freedom town
ship farm.
notwithstanding that she is re-mar'
ried and the proceeds of the sale of the
farm beyond her reach, she is still en-
titled to her dover in the farm, if we
mistake not.
1t is understood that she will push
her claim and endeavor to establish

A Gross Injustice.
There remains to ask after this dis
sertation on Dow and his disappear
ance, how long will the proper officials
wait before an attempt, at least is made
to ferret out the murderer or murder
ers?
There exists no doubt as to Dow,s
death and but very little scepticism is
observed relative to the mode of his
death herein suggested, then why this
apathy?
Will his death continue unavenged
until the end of time or will the muir
derers be brought 10 justice and expia-
ton of their crime? To let the matter
20 by default as has characterized the
pastH is beastly lnhuman and grossly
unjust.
