 "She said if we get in any trouble she will spend her last dollar to get us out of it, and be sure and tell George to come over so as she could have a talk with him. After nine days she would have everything set tled-that is her part of the estate. She also said she did not know if his other two children belonging to his first wife would come in for their share, and she would pay me $2,OOO and also pay George $2,OOO and Henry c c -I> she would give me $500 more. She 1 said There is no need of being scared, everything will blow over This is something that has got to be done' She made me ride to Boston on a train leaving Providence at TAO p. m, to purchase a revolver in a pawn shop on Beach street, about three months ago, which I paid $6 for, a 38-ca1ibre. Mrs. Mohr said to get a good one. If we did not kill him she was going ito do it herself. She paid $1OO for the motorcycle I own, in May this year."
 Mrs. MOhr Jealous.
 All of the negroes under arrest said that Mrs. Mohr told them that she was jealous of Dr. Mohr and also was desirous of getting possession of his estate, which she believed would be denied her if she obtained a divorce. They said she explained to them that the payment of the $5,0OO would be made nine days after the commission of the crime as by that time the en- tire estate would belong to her.
 Married Twelve Years.
 Dr. and Mrs. Mohr were married twelve years ago. Recently Mrs. Mohr Instituted separation proceedings and the doctor brought counter suit. After the suit was entered Mrs. Mohr said that she did not ask for divorce as she hoped the causes which prompted her to seek a separation might be removed some time and a reconciliation would be effected.
