SHOOTS WIFE THEN
TAKES HIS OWN
LIFE
WeathersfieId Man, Probably in
sane, Committed Grimes.
WIFE HAD LEFT HIM
Committed Act With Rifle, Firing
Three shots-Had Met Wife
Through Matrimonial Agency

Weathersfeld, Aug. 24-Using the
fore he had murdered his wife, G.
Frank Hewey, aged 81 years, coun-
ty fish and game warden of Windsor
county, committed suicide in his front
yard this afternoon at 1880 o'clock,
sending a bullet through his heart
from a 1890 Marlin gun. Only few
minutes previous TO this act he end
ed the life of his wife, Mrs Isabelle
G. Hewey. A years old, with two bull
lets, while waiting alone more than
five hours for the arrival of his wife
who several weeks ago deserted him
Mr.. Hewey made the statement that
he was almost crazy. Mrs. Hewey
was driving home from a visit .of a
week in Tinmouth, a few miles from
Rutland. The double tragedy was
committed three quarters of a mile
from the nearest neighbor and it was
fully an hour before the bodies were
discovered by an automobile party,
who notified Selectmen +. d. Leland
and Charles Grout who had the bodies
removed to the Hewey home. The fu-
neral arrangements will be made to
morrow.
Up to within three years Mr.. and
Mrs. Hewey had been residents OF
Springfield, few miles from here
moving to Weathersleld where Mr.
Hewey took up farming AS far as is
known their home life was agreeable
but last June Mrs. Hewey deserted
her husband and went TO live with Nj
and Mrs c. II. Parks a short distanc,
away.
There were three empty shells OF
the ground near by and another in tn,
gun, so 1t is probable that one Of his
shots missed the object it was intend
ed fol-. In his pocket was found {
good sized revolver and It is probabl,
that this was for use in case the gun
should miss fire. His hat, pipe ant
tobacco were found In back OF tn
chair in which he was sitting.
Very little could be ascertainel
from the family relations previous 4
.. their separation in June of this veal
but they were supposed to have bee
happy Mr.. Hewey had not been 4
very good health and the neighbor
noticed from time to time that he wa
very Respondent.
, Mr.. and Mrs. Hewey are survive
, by three sons, Harry, aged %, an
/, Irving, aged Is, of Cavendish and A
bert Hewey, aged ~ years of thl
place. The youngest son had Away
lived with his parents up to the tim
] Of their separation but since then h
had not been with either one.
Mr. and Mrs. Hewey came hei

, they met through a matrimonial bu

band three times and refused to r

son for believing that convention be-
tween the Emperor Of Korea and the
emperor of Japan, providing for the
annexation OF Korea by Japan was
signed here last night by vi Wan
Yon, the Korean premier and Wis
count Terauchi, the japanese resident
general, but official silence in the
premises is profound and the entire
proceeding is screened in mystery.
Monday morning the members of the
Korean cabinet paid a visit to the EN-
peror and afterwards called on Wis
count Terauchi who will pay his last
visit to the emperor today. The city
of Seoul is closely guarded as are al

people of Korea are unmoyed by th'
annexation of their country. but tn,
strictest precautionary measures hav,
been taken to prevent any outbreak.
