FARMLAND KILLS
five AND HIMSELF
Wipes Out Farmers Family
and Fellow Worker.
SHOT AS THEY SLEPT

Bodies Of Victims Lay Four Day
After Terrible crime-Ghastly Find
IN Home.
! Five murders, the wiping out Of a
family and their farmhands, were dis.
covered in the farmhouse Of Samuel
Weitzman, which lies of the Georges
road about three miles outside of New
Brunswick. Another farmland, appar-
emily the man who had killed the
others, was found dead clutching a
revolver.
The dead are Mr.. and Mrs. Weitz-
man, who we're shot as they slept;
their son-in-law, David Kigner, and
his wife, Beatrice, and two workmen
whose names are not known.
County Physician Carroll, who went
to the farmhouse with Prosecutor
Forance and detectives, judged by
the conditions of the bodies that they
had been dead for several days, and
from other circumstances the autho-
rites have concluded that the MUIR
ders took place on Wednesday even
ing. The discovery might have been
longer postponed but for the chance
meeting of a milkman who had been
unable to find any one around the
house with David Kigner's brother.
The Weitzman farm sets back about
a quarter mile from the road on the
edge of a clump of woods. There are
no other houses nearby. Weitzman
was fairly prosperous. He was last
seen on Tuesday, when Joseph Wild.
goose, one Of his customers, stopped |
to get his milk. Wildgoose went |
again on Thursday, but could not find |
any one around the place.
Saturday he happened to meet Ma
than Kigner, brother of David, and
told him that his brothers folks were
away. Kigner became
and with Maurice Kalpen
and Voorhees, Ragin, went over to the
'arm and tried to get in.
Ferguson forced the window Of the
bedroom and climbed in. David Kig-
Ter lay face up on the floor between
he two beds with a bullet wound in
lis chin and forehead. On one Of the
,eds was a farmland, a Hungarian,
IN his knees as if he had been shot
lown as he tried to rise. In the other
Ied was the other hand, a Pole,
rouched under the clothes, with the
evolver in his hand and a wound In
is right temple.
The door of this room was locked
n the inside and as Ferguson opened
a dog that had been lying in cor
er, came dragging itself along the
oor whining and exhausted from
Tant of food and water.
In Weitzman's bedroom he and his
life were found lying on their backs

cath had come to them as they slept.
/ the other bedroom across the hall, 9
lat of Kigner and his young wife, =

ruggle.
Mrs. Kigner lay dead on the bed,
