MS BODY is BROUGHT HOME.

Ladies' of Brownstown Had Covered Lou
Trenck's Casket with Flowers.
The pail of death resting heavily upon
the home of the Trencks. at No. 1S9 Wood
lawn avenue. was deepened yesterday
morning By the arrival OF the body of the
loved one so cruelty murdered by the Sey-
nsour moo. The silver lining 10 the So bic
cloud had appeared. however. In the ex.
pressions of sympathy from the residents
of Brownstown. where the lynching of
young Trenck occurred. John w. Trenck.
the eldest brother of the victim of ths
mobs wrath. after receiving n Telegram at
Terre Haute. came at once to this city and
at O'Clock yesterday morning left for the
scene to bring the body home. He was
accompanied on the trip by several fellow
salrsmen. who kindly offered their assist
ance, which was accepted. The citizens
of Brownst0wn had not been remiss in
their attentions. and every thing was in
readiness for the brother of the dead bow
whom be arrived 50 that there was no de-
lay in starting on the sorrowful return trip.
The ladies' OF Brownstown showed their
sympathies with the sorrowiDg family in q
very touching and appropriate way. Miss
Burrell. the daughter Of prominent at
torney of the town. had taken the lend.
and. assisted Ivy number of other ladies.
they had prepared "a handsome wreath of
Waite immorteliss, which was laid upon

had been gathered and the top of the casket
was strswn with them till it was almost
covered with the little white bells lying
againet the green background made by the
leaves. The reception given the party OF
sal. smen who had come TO remove the
body was such a one as to touch the heart.
The brother of the deceased was treated
with an especial show OF sympathy by the
officials in whose charge the body was. and
the citiZens all seemed TO make an effort TO.
In what measure they could, atone for the
action OF the mob by their expressions OF
sympathy and general disapproval of the
mob's action.
The business men of the town and tho
better class of citizens in all callinRs are
emphatic In their denuncistion of the
Iyachers. but IL Is hardly probable that
they Will ever be brought to justice aud

vicinity will. IN ell likelihood have forgot

from the jail and murdered him.
The family of the murdered boy would
naturally be inclined to believe that the
mon was composed OF the riff-ran OF the
neighborhood, and in this case the opinion
seems TO be well founded. John Trenck.
the brother who went TO the scene. says
that this il the opinion held by the people
OF Brovnstown. As yet there has been no
clew found which might lead TO the identi-
hcation OF any person implicated IN the
lynchlng, bat IL is evident that there were
some railroad men in IL from the fact
that the trip from Seymour was
made by rail. lt Is probable
that the mob would have given up It's pur-
pose but for tho persistence OF the leader.
Ii ia said that several times they faltered
and were upon the point OF turning back.
when the leader would harangue them
and induce them to proceed. The sheri1
had expected their visit. but placed too
much confidence IN the stability OF the Jail
to Withstand their onslaught. The struct-
ure Is 3 strong one, and had the mob not
been led by n man determined to execute
his plans they would have given I'D their
purpose after the first attempt 20 force an
entrance without success. lmportuned TO
go ahead by the leader. however. they re-
turned to the attack. and the second time
succeeded in battering down the door.
Usually there 10 reaction, and when
the life OF the victim Is taken there Is UNI
versal regret over the action Of the mob.
Such is the case az BrowDstowD. and the
people of that place consider the act of
young Trenck chsritably. and are willing
and provoked by ON assault to commit the
crime with viii ch he was charged.
Mrs. Trenck ate n light supper last night,
which was the first nourishment she has
taken since receiving the terrible news
of her sons death at the hands
OF the mob. Last night she
was resting easy and it Is probable that che
will survive the shock. which has. howev-
er, been q terrible one 90 her. The funeral
services will be held at the house, at
