The AFFAIR was one OF the strongest
tragedies that has occurred I'm this sec
tion for a long time. the stranger who Is
said 10 have come from Hartford Conn,
having secured his dinner in the village
and after getting bottle OF beer some
where IN the village tried 10 secure some
morphine at the drug store before start
ing. He was not able to.do so. It is said.
and after walking aimlessly about went
lover 20 Charles Gorton's place on the
Warwick side of the bridge and asked
for a boat Mrs. Gorton was in charge
at the time and the stranger calling her
by name, told her that he thought that
! a row would do him good and said that
though he did not have money enough
20 put in a dollar deposit he would IKE
the boat for an hour or so.
He referred TO the fact that he had
once been in Pewtuxet before and that he
was a married man and had little
daughter about years old. He got the
boat and removing his coat left the
wharf at about la:4S handling the oars
with his gloves on. possibly 10 avoid
blister1ng his hands.
OUT IN THE STORM.
He did not return after the big thun-
der shower and blow that swept down
the bay during the afternoon and Mr..
Gorton began TO feel that there might be
some likelihood that the man was not In
tending to come back as he had left no de-
posite. returning fisherman reported
man rowing aimlessly up and down the
bay and thinking that this might be the
fellow officer Gorton sent Edward Church
n local boatman out 10 see II he could get
him 20 come in. After rowing about for
while the boatman was unable to see any,
thing OF stranger and Mr. Gorton sent
two OF his sons. William and Harry, aged
respectively 2l and Is. In a sldn TO look up
the missing boat for he did not know but
this fellow like others might have rowed
about all he cared TO and then left the
boat at some landing on the other side
OF the river 10 escape the necessity OF
paying for it's use.
The two young men found rather
lumpy sea after the blow OF the after
noon but being excellens sailors from
their continuous experience with boats or
all sorts from infancy they did not mind
that and went in the direction of Squan-
tun. where their man had been reported.
They espied boat putting over from
the direction or Starvegoat island that
contained a man. who did not row like a
poatman and putting all their energies
to the oars soon came imp with him just
after he had anchored near the big
rock on which the Souantum club house
Is constructed
There they saw that the boat was their
fathers and on the stern seat they saw n
new Smith and Wesson revolver. Noticing
the young mems eyes on the revolver the
man hastily put II in his pocket and ac-
cepted their offer Of assistance in getting
back to Pawtuxet. The younger brother
remained In the boat which had carried
them over and the elder got in with the
stranger.
