ter Evidence For Defence.

Millard Lord was in Honesdale to-
day to see his mother, Mrs. Leona
Lord of Equinunk, and her lawyers,
w. H. Lee and Frank P. Kimble.
He found Mrs. Lord in good health,
though the confinement quite natur-
ally tells on her somewhat. He ad-
mitted the Saturday visit of Lee and
Kimble to Equinunk was for the pur-
pose of collecting evidence to be used
in the woman's defence at the trial
in January.
Mr.. Lord expressed surprise when
told that Sam Reeds counsel would
insist on Sans going to trial in
October
"Is that correct?" he asked.
Mother does not expect to be tried
until January"
He will go back to Equinunk to-
night, he said.
Charles A. McCarty, Sans law
yer said today that he had as yet
found no time to go to Equinunk to
make personal inquiries on the scene
of the fracas of July ~ that cost Sike
Lord his life, but that he certainly
would go there later on.

BEN COURTRIGHT INSANE.
Slayer of Harvey Cron Now In Asy-
lum at Norristown.

HAWLEY, Aug. 23.-Ben Court
right of Lebanon township, Pike
county, three years ago convicted OF
the murder of Harvey Cron in Della
ware township and sentenced to 10
years in the Eastern penitentlary,
is now an inmate of the state asy-
lum for the insane at NorristoWn'
having been transferred to that in
stitution last week.
Upon advices from the peniten-
tiary some days ago, Judge Staples
appointed a commission in lunacy,
consisting of DR.. Robert G. Barck-
ly, District Attorney Bun of Pike
and Commissioners Clerk Baker, to
go to the Eastern penitentiary and
inquire into the sanity of Courtright'
They found the young man in
most pitiable condition. The chief
hallucination from which he was
suffering was that the ghost OF
Harvey Cron, whom he shot, ap-
peared nightly in his cell to haunt
him. He was greatly distressed and
unable to sleep, which so preyed on
his mind that he became incorrigi-
BILE and caused much disturbance
and disorder in the prison.
Ben also told the commission oi
receiving a visit from his father, who
has been dead for year.. He has
also become very religious, reads
the Bible constantly, and prays In
termittently.
