WEALTH AND INFLUENCE
WILL AID IN Defense
Plea VIII &c Temporary In
sanity From DT0adlng
Over PaTfnisgs
(By Leased WlreJ


Trenton, n. j.. Dec. 1.-The trial
or John Sears, the mulatto and self
confessed slayer OF the Rev DR.. Am
ri L. Armstrong and his wife In tie
parsonage Of the Dutch Neck Pres
byterian church, promises TO be the
weirdest blend OF theatrical and sem
sation in the annals of New Jersey

opments today.
Wealth and influence will be exert
ed by the white faeher OF the self
confessed slayer 70 save him from
the electric chair and the family
skeleton OF at least one formerly rich
and aristocratic family will be rarad-
ed before the public In the hope OF
consummating this.
An investigation CT the records re-
yealed that John Sears Is the son Of
Thomas Duncan. a former rich and
substantial citizens, and that Duncans
wife sued him for divorce after the
birth Of the prisoner. naming Rachael
sears-Johns negro mother--as CO
respondent. The divorce was grant
ed
At that time Duncan was affluent
socially prominent in New Jersey.
And while much of his wealth has
slipped through his fingers. he re-
tains the friendship of prosperous
men who knew him in his palmy days.
Sears Is an ontcast--despised by
both black and white. His own faith
er could not recognize him, and time
after time when Sears sought to call
himself Duncan, after his father. he
says he was forbidden by the Rev.
Mr.. Armstrong. Sears says that he
practically lost his reason brooding
over the question Of his parentage
and was driven TO murder by his IA
cial isolation living only to be seorh
ed by both whites and blacks.
II was reported that Duncan had
already taken steps toward providing
defense for Sears.
The official records show that
Sears was born at Locust Corner. n.
j.. on Nav 2S. 1877. His mother,
who is now held as witness against
him, was then empolyed In the Rue
family--the family Of Mrs Armstrong
Duncan was friendly with the Rue
family, a member Of which was in
the state legislature for a number OF
years.
