GIlligan, Slayer OF Turner, Dead.

Richmond, Va, April 2O.-Andrew
Carter Gilligan, who about three years
ago shot and iilled Mr.. Beverly r.
Turner, prominent resident Of Isle
Of Wight County, died late last night
in the penitentia. y where hc was serv-
ing an 18.year term.
The tragedy was one OF the most
sensational that has occurred in Vir-
ginia in tho last half century.
The shooting occurred over Miss
Isabelle Turner, whose father had
forbidden Gillizan to visit her. They
held clandestiue meetings 6nd it was
at one of these that Mr.. Turner was
killed.
The yoppg woman who figured so
prominently in the tragedy married
another man only few weeks ago.
Mr. Beverly r. Turner, a prominent
planter and landowner Of Isle of Wight
County, was one night about three
years ago shot down near his cocntry
home. The tragedy occurred after
dark. The wound was made by a
gunshot, and beyond that at frst
nothing was known, as Mr.. Turner
died without being able to tell who
had killed him. Suspicion later fell
on young Gilligan, whose quarrel with
the father became known and he was
| arrested.
Gilligan was the son Of man en-
ployed by. Turner and had fallen in
love with Miss Serena Isabella Tur-
ner, the daughter Of the house. The
proud father had resented this atten-
tion from man he considered his in
ferior and had driven the young man
from his house. In the investigation
of the murder it was shown that Gill
ligan did not cease his attentions to
the girl, but met her many times ee-
cretly. He was on the Turner planta-
tion the day Of the tragedy, and had
borrowed gun. -
Though the exact circumstances Of
Turner'S death had never been def
nitely disclosed, it was believed that
the father returned home and found
his daughter and the young man to-
geiher, aud that GGiiiigsu, fearing an
attack, shot him.
Gilligan would have hanged il the
jury had not believed chat the murder
waH not deliberately planned. AS it
was he was convicted Of manslaughter
and sentenced to along term in prison, !.
which has just been ended by his
death from disease.
The young woman, who is said to
be pretty and accomplished, was mar
ried not lon' ago and is now residing
in Richmond.

Holds Breath Till Dead.

London, Ontario, April 15.-Jchn
Myklehurst, Norwegian, committed
suicide at Mill Road Infirmary, Liy.
erpool, in manner which constitutes
record in the annals of self -destruc-.
ton. /, 9.
It was stated at the inquest that he
wa1 removed 30 80 ss1as ::s:m.-y in enn-
sequence Of mis- strange manner. and
that while there he asked FOR rsvoi-
yer to shoot himself. This being 70.
fused he declined food, and subse-
quently held his breath until he rup-
tured his lungs and died.
1t has hitheri been. held that no
one has ever committed suicide by
holding the breath. This opinion
was based on the ground that the ex-
cess of carbonic acid circulating in the
blood caused by the deprivation Of air
stimulated the nerves Of respiration
to such an extent that no effort Of the
will could prevail over the act of
breathing:
How John Myklehurst was able to
prevent air entering his lungs needs
explanation. The rupture Of the
lungs" was probably no6hing more
than the breaking Of some Of the
smaller blood vessels.
This would suggest that the hold
ing OF the breath'wes not a mere still
ing OF the ribs and diaphragm, which
acts az bellows. On the contrary,
the rupture points to having acted
vigorously, but without being able to
overcome an obstruction in the wind
pipe.
John Myklehurst, being insane,
was possibly seized with paralysis
OF the larynx, or voice box, the result
perhaps Of auto-suggestion.
