Jersey Farmers.

Half OF the farmers in Franklin and
Montgomery townships are preparing TO

the village tavern in Harlengtn, N j..
into the strange death, last Friday night,
of William Won Scheiller, coachman for
DR.. Abraham g. Mosher, of Griggstown
Coroner Louis T. Read and George B.
Totten, a constable, Of Somerville, accom-
panied by six jurymcn, Inspected the
Moshet homestead yesterday, and exam
med blood spots on the kitchen floor, the
stone doorstep, and on rocks near wa
terng trough where the coachmans po0y
was found.
Won Scheffler was buried in the Poor
Farm graveyard yesterday. When the
man was found dead in a hollow back Oh
the house, DIR. Mosher made out a ueath
certificate, giving the cause of death as
alcoholism and exposure. An autopsy per
formed by Coroner Read showed ina 'he
Coachman's skull was fractured, ms head
badly bruised and that he had cled from
hemorrhage OF the BRAIN
Won Schefticr, who is about slXty-llVe
years old was a refugee from Germany
because of a duel he had fought ana also
because he had taken part III the feVo-
luton of 1873 His father, he said, was
General Won Schefier, and ne hlmscH hau
been u Prussiau cavalry oilcer.
He was a graduate from Boon unlver-
sity, and his brother had been a fellow
student of Carl SchurZ. When he came
to this country Won Schettier was for a
time professor of horsemanship in Vas
sar College. He worked for a While, IT
is said. under Professor ASasslz and FRO
fessor Dana. Disappointed ambition, fo!-
lowed by drink, reduced him to the posi-
ton Of coachman and farm hand for
country physician
1t was simultaneously with the coacn-
mans death that the announcement was
made that DR.. Mosher's wife had brought
suit against him for divorce in the Court
of Cbancery III Trenton. Won Scheillef'
It is said, was to have been a witness at
the trial.
Mrs. Rita Schultz, sister of Mrs. Mosher,
last night at her home, No. 113 West Fit
teenth Street, said, in speaking Of the
coachman:
lie was always very polite and gentle.
I've often heard him say to the Doctor,
How can a man, who has wife ike
yours, treat her so badly?' DR. Mosher
has q bad temper and was III tue haoiL
of threatening everybody.
DR. Moshar lives in a Colonial homestead
overlooking the Milestone River, near
Griggstown. The AIosher family received
the title to their land from George Ill

Dr. Mosher II would not have hurt a
hair of his head, and [ was the only one

II last saw him on Friday evening. lie
had been drinking heavily for three days,
and he entered my room to tell me that
somebody had robbed him of a dollar
He then left saying he would water the
horses My brother Lewis found him lying
in a hollow near the watering trough.
AS to the blood stains on the kitchen
door and stoop, DR.. Mosher said they
were from d dog that had been killed the
other day. Surprising Developments are
expected at the inquest to-day.
