ADIRONDACK MURRAY
Eccentric Clergyman and Writer Passes
Away, Aged Sixty-Four.

William H. H. Murray, whose death at
Guilford, Conn.,, was reported in The Star
yesterday, was a preacher. author and lover
of good horses. He was born in Guilford,
Conn.,. 1910. He came of a poor family, and
from an early age supported himself by
manual labor. He took course in Yale,
being graduated in 1862. and subsequently
became pastor of the First Congregational
Church. Meridian. Conn.,
While holding this pastorate he went one
summer into the Adirondacks and sent to
a Connecticut paper accounts of camp life,
which were afterward Incorporated In a
book This authorship won him the name
of Adirondack Murray
Mr.. Murray married a daughter of Shell
don Hall, farmer, of Essex. Conn.,, and in
Street Church. Boston. Not long afterward
he engaged in the breeding of Morgan
horses at his Guilford farm. His congrega-
ton was opposed to Mr.. Murray's sporting
proclivities. and in 1874 he resigned from
the pastorate of the Park Street Church.
For three years following Mr.. Murray
preached before large audiences in the
Music Hall. He started a periodical called
the Golden Rule, which proved a failure.
In 1877 his business affairs became involved
and his creditors took advantage of his abb
sence in the west to attach his property. In
a statement he issued TO the public he said
thde Piopei9 WORTH xSU,UUU was taken TO
pay less than 5000 OF debts. In the same
statement he said:

said it was one of the things which the
Mormon Church believed IN. but that the

formed when one party was dead, and
sometimes when both parties We're dead In
that event the relatives of the contracting

When questioned closely Mr.. Smith admit

Mr. Tayler concluded with Mr.. Smith, and
the defense expressed desire to question
him. The committee took an adjournment
at 4:e5 until this morning.

Portland, Ore. Oct. 22.-The busi-
