building and driven back to their
cages.
Police Sergeant Glynn and po-
Iiceman were shot, the former seri-
ously, by bullets intended for the
lions. Dozens of women tainted and

the murder of her husband, was par
dnoed today. She was entenced for

The pardoning of Mrs. Cobb, now
&c years old, recalls one of the most
sensational crimes in the annals of
Connecticut courts. Her husband,
Charles Cobb, was tax collector of
Norwich He was found dead in
January, 1879. Soon afterwards Mrs.
Wesley Bishop, member of another
prominent Norwich family, died sud-
denly. Both families were intimate.
The coroner's inquest showed that
both Cobb and Mrs. Bishop had died
of poisoning under suspicious circum-
stances. Mrs. Cobb and Bishop were
arrested and it developed after a re-
markable trial that the two had
planned the murders that they might
be free to wed.
The evidence was mostly circum-
stantial and it was not until Bishop
had turned states evidence that the
motive and details were brought out.
Both were sentenced to life impris-
onment. Bishop died in prison two
years ago Mrs. Cobb has petitioned
the board of pardons six different
times for clemency.
