DETROIT HAD DAILY
TIMES so YEARS AGO

u. T.. Rice. No. "a Hazelwood-ave.
has preserved q copy of the Detroit
Daily Times of Aug. 81. 1853, which
has three notices OF peculiar interest
One is the notice of his marriage 70
Mrs. Emily II. Hard and the others
are advertisements OF his machinery
business. Mr.. Rice, who is n years OF
age, came here 60 years ago. and was
one of the first men to build engines
and other like machinery in Detroit
He has maintained shop at almost
the same location since that time.
The Times of that C1y was a small
sheet, as became city OF the size
OF this at that time. Its news notices
deal with the hope OF soon achieving
through railroad service TO New York
and the east. Among the other old
timers whose advertisement appears
is Jacob Beller. who lets the public
know that His brandies have proven
a sovereign remedy for cholera.
The liquor question was then live
issue as now, Michigan having, nom.
inally adopted prohibitory laws. The
question as TO whether prohibition
really prohibits in Maine was then un
der discussion as vigorously as at the
present day.

FIVE trunks to the Guinness farm In
the last six months and this fact has
caused the authorities TO work on the
theory that the place was a clearing
house for murderers. They suspect
that wealthy persons, after being lur-
ed TO Chicago and killed. were pack
ed In these trunks and sent TO Laporte
and disposed OF. Preparations are be-
ing made for further excavations.
The authorities recall that the two
husbands OF Mrs. Guinness died under
suspicious circumstances, both meet
ing violent deaths. The first, Max
Sorenson, was insured for $500, and
the second. Guinness, for $500. This
insurance was paid over TO Mrs. Gun
ness by the companies.
Max Sorenson, the first husband,
died several years ago while the. fam-
lily lived at Austin. III. His death
was said to have been due to heart
failure. but relatives asserted he had
been poisoned. An inquest was or
dered some time after the body had
been buried, but for some reason il
was never disinterred by the authori
ties.
While she was resident of Austin

ed, and although some question as to
the origin OF the fire arose, the insur-
ance was collected.
With money secured from insurance
on the death of her husband, Mrs.
Guinness bought confectionery store
In Chicago A short time later the
store was destroyed by fire. the origin
of which was suspicious. but after
making an investigation the insurance
companies could not attach any blame
to Mrs. Guinness and paid the claim.
After the fire at Chicago the woman
moved to the Laporte, and II was here
that she was united in marriage to
Peter Guinness While in the kitchen
one day Guinness was struck on the
head by a meat chopper and the wife
explained 10 the coroner that 1t had
fallen from shelf and had killed him.
Although her story was question the
investigation never was carried any
further and she was given sufficient
credence by the authorities to drop
the case.
