tire family OF six persons was muir
dered and the bodies OF all bur one OF

ing In the yard OF mis- destroyed home,
the funeral pyre Of his loved ones.
Two bullet holes through the body
and q CHASTITY wound in the neck,
which almost severed the head from
the body, gave the discoveries their
first evidence Of the extent of the
tragedy
Al search Of the ruins of the house
disclosed sickening spectacle The
blackened masses OF half-burned flesh
and the charred bones Of the two wo-
men and three children were found
beneath the debris, each body bearing
evidence OF murder committed before
the house was destroyed by fire. The
elder woman's skull was upturned
some distance' from the remainder OF
her half burned body.
Another daughter OF Mrs. Justis told
the police that her mother had large
sum Of money buried under the sill Of
the house, and they succeeded in Dig
