been assassinated, and for weeks put
forth strenuous efforts to discover and
bring the murderer to justice. Moth

any clue to the perpetrator of the crime.
The brother, George Thayer, was the
only relative. and as William died
without will George came into pos
session of his property, which amount
e1 to $4,000. The business was contin-
