Asbury Park ~ j.. March 12-The circumstances
connected with the sudden death OF Mrs. ha'hari"e

vestgated by the police. Mrs. Babcock was an
active worker in the Woman's Christian Temperance

TO light tonight
On the morning after Mrs. Babcock's death the
body hastily put In coffin, which had been
ordered several hours before the end came. II Is
alleged. The undertaken was told at the time that
he must be ready to take the body away to HIS
dale the same afternoon. He said this would be
unwse and would create suspicion. but those In
charge insisted so strongly that the undertaken
compiled. Meanwhile. Mrs Babcocks friends In
the local Temperance Union began to grow sus-
picous and Mrs Il. Bishop wrote to Mrs Bah
cocks relatives In Rochester relating the strange
circumstance OF her death and suggesting that an
inquiry be made. One of the letters sent to
Mrs. s. J. Mills. OF that city. She replied that she
wanted the authorities at Asbury Park to take the
case IN hand. have Mrs. Babcock's body exhumed
and the stomach thoroughly examined. She went
fore the holidays with two 500 checks and some
cash. she was kind to every one cannot rest
