twice, and then stabbing himself with
a stiletto. The mans attempt at self
destruction didn't come until a posse
of citizens had closed in on him, and
with every shot fired from his revolver
he saw that capture was inevitable.
A number Of the Italian laborers en-
ployed at Long Swamp started drinking
early Saturday. They kept up the spree
Saturday night and yesterday. and
many OF them were still drunk when
they got to work early to-day.
Sam Merrlngola was in a bad temper.

him for some money he owed him Sam
flew into n rage and refused to pay

but Sam repeated it several times un-
til the dead mans head was almost
severed from his body.
Not one Of the Italians who witnessed
the crime attempted to interfere with
the murderer. and when he put on his
coat and walked away no one offered to
stop him. Merringola went straight
from the gravel pit to the residence
of Mrs. Pietra. He told the woman
what he had done and she chided him.
The mans answer to her rebuke was
to take out his pistol and fire two shots
at her. One took effect in her right
arm, the other in her leg. She fell over
