DELAYED THE FUNERAL.
AUTOPSY PREFACES THE BURIAL
A MARSAFlELD MlSER.
His Daughter, suspeoting Foul Play
From the circumstances OF His Death,
Orders an xamination at tho Last Mo
mcnt Before tho Funeral.

MANSFIELD, Mass, March Sat Q
O'Clock this afternoon there was large
gathering of relatives and friends at the
house Of the late George Babbitt to attend
his funeral. For nearly two hours they
waited in wondering curiosity, not under
standing the reason for the delay. Even the
minister, Rev. Jacob lde, was unaware Of
the cause, but in small room at the far
end of the house Medical Examiner Holden
of Attleboro DR.. Fred Perry, d. 8. Spauld-
ing and Deputy Sheriff Cobb of this town
were performing an autopsy on the body Of
the deceased, which had been ordered by the
seectmen at the request of the dead mans
daughter, Mrs. Clarence V. Seward of
Crawford, N. j.
George NJ. Babbitt died after a long life,
in the utmost degradation and want, sur
rounded the greater part OF tho time with
the greatest filth, yet owning property
valued ct not much less than $40, 600. His
money was largely earned in the junk bush
ness and it bad been invested in good pay
ing bonds. How much he was worth no
one knew, and about year ago the as
founding information was given to the pub
lie that about S25, 600 in bonds, which he
had kept slowed away in boxes and barrels
in the woodshed, had been stolen from him
men are doing time for the job.
After this affair Mr.. Babbitt went to live
with Mrs. Jacob klebes of Attleboro, a
niece, and later returned to his home in this
town, accompanied by Mrs. klebeg. This
act on her part has caused family troubles.
1t is learned that not long ago Rabbit
decided soma OF his property to Mrs. KIebss,
and II was not generally known that he had
been sick, when news came that he was
dead. Mrs. Seward, his daughter was no.
titled, and on coming here her suspicion was
aroused that all was not right SO she asked
for an autopsy, the result of which cannot
be given in detail. Enough is known, how
ever, to warrant the statement that the
doctors have found something which they
are not willing to divulge.
1t Is learned that within few months
Babbitt was induced to have a will written,
in which he bequeathed part Of his property
to Isaac Tucker man who has bsen
conildant of bis for years; small OF money
to his daughter, and the balance to Mrs.
klebes, but an important fact is that this
will was never signed. a curious fact in
connection with the matter is that within
the past week, George Seward, a grandson
Of Rabbits, and one of the persons doing
time for robbing him OF his bonds a year
ago, has made three attempts to hang him
