eide pact.
According to the story pieced to-
gether from the agonized whisperings
Of the couple as the acid ate the It's
sues of their throats and mouths,

watched his pain drawn face for a mo-
ment, then lifted the vial TO her lips
and drained what remained in it.

Laporte from Princeton, Ind, and
Haun had told several persons that
there was trouble in the family and
that when one died the other would
soon follow.

lions, of the utmost courage of his
convictions and of great plainness of
speech; because he was a man of the
highest character. father and husband
