 Three men forced an entrance to his home at 8 o'clock Saturday morning Baverstock said. They de- manded money and when this was refused, he said, two of the men held him while the third cut off his toes. Alter this, he said he gave them s3O.
 The trio then seized his wife, Baverstock said, and dragged her to a cistern where her body was found later with window curtain drawn tightly about the neck.
