CUTTING UP THE BODY

She then requested me to help her
to dispose of the body. [ went upstairs
and helped to undress the body Then
we carried it to the bath tub. 1 went
out and bought some plaster of Paris.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-11-30

When came back she began cutting
up the body. She cut the head off with
knife. When she reached the back of
the neck, she cut through that portion
with a small saw. Then she cut
through the middle of the body, and
then I asked her Why she cut so. She
replied: I know enough not to cut
through the bowels -
Thorn then detailed the disposition
made of the body, which has been al
ready related il his published confess
sion. He admitted having lied to Cap
tain O'Brien as to his whereabouts on
the day Of the killing. with view to
establishing an alibi. He said he helped
Mrs. Mack undress Guldensuppe, but
heard no groan, and saw nothing that
would lead to believe the man to be
alive while being cut up.
GAVE A FALSE NAME.
Mr.. Weller in several ways tried to
get the principal witness to write his
name on a sheet of paper. Mr. Howe
objected and was sustained by Justice
Madden
AS to the hiring Of the cottage,
Thorn was closely questioned He
gave a false name and business to the
proprietor of the cottage, he said, be-
cause Mrs. Mack did not want any one
to know that he was living with her.
In the further cross examination
Thorn said that the most money he
ever took at one time from Mrs. Mack
was SO that he paid for rent of the
Woodside cottage. After the arrest of
Mrs. Mack he spent his days in New
Jersey and only came to New York
at night Thorn was asked regarding
letter which was taken from him
by the Sheriff. Thorn had tried to de-
stroy the letter, but the officers rescued
1t. In it he asked Mrs. Mack to testify
as he told her, and he would send
some word before the trial
ASSISTING MRS. MACK.
Then you were assisting in framing
the defense?" asked Mr.. Weller.
Yes, certainly" was Thorn's reply.
And you We're doing all you could
to cover up the crime?'
Eyes, I did all l could" said Thorn
The district attorney objected to Mr..
Howe referring to the testimony of
Mrs. Mack or using any of it before
the jury. The court sustained the OBJ
lection.
At this time Mr.. Weller interrrpted
Mr.. Howe by going back to the cross
examination, as the Interpreter had
come into court with tvpewrittan
copies OF translations of two letters
which Mrs. Mack wrote to Thorn and
one written % her by Thorn while in
the Queens county prison These have
been printed before. Mrs. Mack sue-
gested that they get something to end
their lives with. Thorn in his letter
said ne had a prescription which. if il
could be filed, would end his life. He
did not wish her to die; he wanted
to see her free
You were willing to die yourself
and save the woman?" asked Mr.. Wei
