bility, the PIONEER EXPRESS will de.
tall the main facts of the story as de.
veloped and leave the discrepancies to
the attorneys who have to discuss
them. The story in brief is, this
Adam Miller, the murdered man, was
q German, who. with relatives emf.
grated to Hungary at the city Of
Paks. He married a second cousin,
Elizabeth; he had cousin named
Joseph Till who also lived in Paks.
Adam emigrated to this country
about three years ago, be left his wife
behind him. Last winter he sent for
his wife; his wife and Joseph Till
came together. 1t is a disputed ques.
tton whether Adam knew Joseph was
coming. The two emigrants were de-
tanned for some time in New York as
they were nearly out of money until
the question of having friends could
be settled. Adam sent Mrs. Miller at
New York first $50 then go again, on
which money Till and Mrs. Miller
came to Pembina about the 5th Of
February. At the station here Adam
kissed them both on their arrival;
Adam was working for Jacob GRADER,
he took his wife to Mrs. Graders for
two days, then took her out two miles
north Of town to the house Of Paul
Bedoes, a Hungarian, where he had al.
ready taken Joseph Till. We may
say here, that there are many rumors,
and Mrs. Bedoes says she heard Adam
say, he had letter the year before
stating that Till had run away with
Mrs. Miller In the old country, There
Is not much positive evidence though
what there Is conflicting, whether
Adam and Till we're good friends here
or not. Anyway he bought Till a cap
and a pair of overshoes immediately
after he came, and they we're more or
less together. On Tuesday, Stephen
Smith, Hungarian living mile or
so away from Bedoes' went there and
took Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Bedoes to
town, there saw Adam in the after
noon and he said he would come out
to the farm after supper. That night
after seven o'clock and before half
past seven, James Kneeshaw, q boy,
saw and spoke with Adam Miller
whom he knew; Adam said he was 60
