A written confession that he had
poisoned his former sweetheart MISS
Avis Linnell was made Saturday by
Rev. Clarence V. T. Richeson, former
ly pastor of the Immanual Baptist
church, Cambridge, Mass Miss Lin
nell whose death occurred last Octo-
Der at the Young Woman's Christian
Association on Warrenton street Bos-
ton was a student at the New Eng
land Conservatory of Music, her home
being in Hyannis where Richeson had
formerly held a pastorate Richeson
had, however, left Hyannis and as
sumed the pastorate of the Cambridge
church and had Liter become engaged
to Miss Violet Edmunds of Brookline
1t was at first thought that the girl
had committed suicide and Rev. Mr.
Richeson occupied his pulpit as usual
later after certain Investigations the
minister was arrested on the charge
of murder. The arrest was made on
Oct. 20 and a Newton druggist claim
ed he had sold cyanide of potassium to
Richeson Oct. 10, the death of Miss
Linnell occurring Oct. IA.
Richeson's confession reads as fol-
lows:

sellers Collect Old Accounts

Boston rumselers with open ac-
counts to collect in Somerset county
will get very little consolation from
the outcome of the case of John \
Walsh Co. of Boston vs. Fred Bess OF
Skowhegan, which came before JUS
tice Bird and the jury in the supreme
judicial court, Tuesday afternoon, on
appeal from the decision of the trial
justice. The plaintiffs alleged that
upon two different occasions they had
shipped Bess l2o pints of whiskey. for
which he had persistently refused 10
pay. Then to make sure OF getting a
lawyer who knew all the inns and outs
of the liquor business in dry territory
Walsh & Co. employed Fred f. Law
renee of the Western Somerset NUM-
cipal Court, to collect the bill. He
secured a verdict in the lower court
without difficulty, but on appeal Bess
set up the defense that The liquors
were intended for illegal sale. In He-
buttal Judge Lawrence read from tn
stenographic record Of the last term
of court. where Bcss, charged with
selling liquor, had denied any and all
connection with the liquor business.
But the jury evidently didn't like the
idea of being rung in TO help out any
Boston rumscller and believing that
Sheriff Mooers could be trusted to look
after the local end OF the business
brought in a verdict for the defendant

Richeson was to have appeared in
court on Monday but owing to the
illness of William A. Morse one of
his attorneys the case was postponed
until Tuesday, when he was arraigned
and with the appearance of a man
who had abandoned all hope of life,
he stood at the bar of justice, de
clared his guilt of the premediated
murder of his former sweetheart, Miss
Avis Linnell, and heard without a
tremor the words of Judge Sanderson
that condemned him to death in the
electric chair during the week begin
ming May 10Th.
Richeson's counsel declared after
the proceedings that an appeal for
executive clemency would follow soon
and that every effort would be made
to obtain life Imprisonment instead
of death as the punishment.

cotton yield. though at present the out
look for large corn crops is good. While
the red lands of the county have suf-
fered but little devastation, much harm
has been done on the gray lands, and
IL is feared that at least 20 per cent
average is lost: Peaches will also be

Watermelons are f1ne, as well as
