PLAN MlSCARR|ED.
Terrio Said to Have Directed
Money Buried
In Cellar Where i Could Be Found
by Counsel.
Brother in. Law Parent Said 10 Have Nc qlect
and Divulged Fact.

SkoWheo2n. Me. Nov. IL, ,SpeciaD.
Another interesting fact in connec-
ton with the mystery surrounding the
murder Of Matthias Pare has recently
been brought to light. a circumstance
which caused considerable comment at
the time, and which was given some
stress at the trial was the fact that
Terro sent Hon. s. J. Walton. who was
acting as mis- counsel at that time, to
his home ut Moose River, soon after his
arrest telling him that he had buried
q large sum Of money in his cellar. Mr.
Walton found no money. and many
thought Il strange that the prisoner
should lie about the matter. and send
his counsel Ior money, when he knew
there was none there.
1t now seems, and the story cones
f. reliable authority. that TeIrin
sent word to his brot law Fred
Parent. that Walton was going up
there to look for money. and directed
him TO bury $50 in his cellar Parents $
failure to obey this injunction explains
why no money was found, but the cir
cumstance places the prisoner in rath-
er a bad light; in fact. there are not a
few who hold the opinion that his con-
fiicting stories had more to do with his
conviction than the direct evidence Of
the State
