former Presidents sons, at the Saga
more Hill homestead. This state

haps in Washington, national me-
mortal services at which the people
of this country which loved the
name Roosevelt will have an oppor-

attended services at Christ Church
when in oyster Bay, he was at the
time of his death a member of the
Collegiate Reformed Church of st.
Nicholas, Fifth avenue and Forty
eighth street, New York City. At
this church he was baptized, and
later. as a young man, united in the
confession of faith at its altar, as his
parents had done. Mrs. Roosevelt
is an Episcopalian, and as there is
no Dutch Reformed Church in this
town, the colonel attended divine
worship at Old Christ Church.

OF the testimony in the two trials
which were conflicting, In one i'm
stance he said witness testified he
went into the house in front of which
Gillian was stabbed, while at the
second trial the witness said Evans
only went to the top of the front

those facts had been argued to the
jury by his counsel and had been
considered before verdict was re-
turned.

Gillian about $40 o'clock in the
evening. An effort wsls made to re-
duce the degree of the homicide by
