TRUMBULL.

TRUMBULL's HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
There is but one item from this place
this week. The good people of this town
can know of nothing else and can think
of nothing else, night or day, than of the
double crime that has been committed in
our midst, the horrible and sickening de-
tails of which have been widely publish
ed. 1t is not the purpose of this item to
recall these details but simply to say that
now that George Marcus Nichols, muir
dered and robbed without resistance in
his own home, has been laid to rest and
his sister is slowly recovering from an
almost fatal wound, the thoughts of all
center about the arrest and conviction of
the men who did the deed. Hourly the
conviction grows that this must be the
last, and that these men must not escape
at any cost. The selectmen have seen
fit, with sufficient private backing, to
offer reward of $1,000, and a special
town meeting has been called to ratify
their action and to make further appro-
priatlon II deemed best. The state has
offered $1,000, and it 10 understood that
MISS Nichols pledges $25O0 Detectives
are hard at work, and the latest news re-
ports arrests. When 1t is known that
these men, who probably have been &C
tive in other burglafies in town, are in
safe keeping we shall rest peacefully
and not till then. one thing ought to
be an assured fact from now on, that
any one breaking into any home in town
will not find money sufficient to warrant
the risk.
The funeral of George Marcus Nichols
was held from the house at 2 p. m, Sat
urday, a large number OF friends and
nelghbors and people out of town being
present. The services were conducted
by Rev Charles BoYlestOn of Grace
Church, Long Hill, assisted by Rev w.
f. White of TrumbulI.
Mr. Nichols was Of retiring nature.
He loved his own home, and when he had
transacted his own business returned to
1t to live quietly and peaceably with all
men. He was honest and upright in all
his dealings, and it is not known that he
had any enemies. The men who shot
him evidently did so for no other reason
than that they were looking for money
which they were led in some way to be.
lieve was in his possession. The facts
are that while he had unwisely kept con.
siderable nOn-ncgotiable paper in the
house, it was not the practice to keel
money, as he was too good and safe d
business man to run such Il risk. Its a
surprise to every one that they got sc
much as the sum of 5000. The sympa
thy OF every one goes out to Miss Mich
OILS in her trouble and sorrow, who hal
endured with such fortitude and bravery
the most trying scenes and experiences
through which she has passed.
The police are confident they are or
the track of the guilty men. They have
arrested John Weeks of Huntington, and
are after one, Boinai.
AS II the above was not enough for
this town to be charged with, some one
must get Ia at window in the home o!
Mr. Heinze and steal watch and chain

was at work in a rear room of the house
