an article by Alexandra Dumas appeared, de-
ciaring that Deacon had no right to kill his

1t is now asserted that Achilles family, which
was active In prosecuting Deacon, paid Dumas

said the large influence OF the Abeille family
was used in every direction for Mrs. Deacon.
1t is asserted that they spent SOo. 600 francs to
OBTAIN Deacon's conviction, and of this In, coo
