discharged, the officers were ordered to
have White before the judge, Wednes-
| day morning.
1t was nearly z when Rose started
| for her home from the court room, and
she did not reach the house until nearly
8 O'Clock.
T Before starting, she told the officers
that she would get even with White.
and threatened to kill him as she has
many times before, but they thought
nothing of it, as they had often seen
her in the same frenZied condition, and
knew of her coarse nature.
! 1t seems that she and White had been
| in trouble over the liquor that was
seized, each claiming it, and after the
| officers seized it. she said White placed
| it where they would be the most Liable
| to sea it, out of spite.
| In the Carson house there were five IN
| mates, Rose and her husband, Mrs
George Carson, Samuel White, and
boarder, an old Togus veteran named
| John Regain. The house is not a very
| pretentious one. and is situated just
over the brow Of a hill little over IL
miles east Of the Togus Home. AS has
been said, the expression of going to
Carson's" or going to the Pink house"
was one and the same, as the old Car
son house, at one time pink on the out
side. stands but few feet from the
house now occupied by the gang.
The present house is White and IL
stories in height. of about 25x30 feet in
size. On the first floor there are two
rooms, besides the shed. The front
door leads into the living room. and il
| is living room indeed. A living room
that one would mistake for pig pen.
for though the house is Of a kind that
would not attract special attention on
the outside, it is certainly remarkable
for It's dirty appearance within.
The other room on the first floor. is
a bed room, which is entered by a door
in center Of the partition, from the lily
! ing room. In the bed room there are
four windows.
Il is just such a house both in repu-
tation and appearance. as one would
mark for the scene Of some henious
crime, and it's past record is too wei
known - the people Of Kennebec coun-
~ u need any Further explanation.
When Rose White reached the house
after her visit 10 the court, it seems
that there was a very warm time in
the place.
