died, leaving behind her a will in
which her husband was cut off with

deserted her a year before.

MADE BUSINESS OF MURDER
William Burke, Infamous Irjshman,
Also Instrumental in Adding
Significant Verb to Language.

Burke and Hare were two notorious
who carried on their infamous trade
in Edinburgh. William Burke was
born in Ireland in 1892, and went to
Scotland as a laborer about 1917. In
1927 he was living in a cheap lodging
house kept by another Irish laborer
named William Hare. About the end
of 1927 one of Hare's dodgers, an army
penSioner, died, and Burke and Hare
sold the body to DR.. Robert Knox,
an Edinburgh anatomist. Hare there
upon suggested bOdy-snatching as
business and Burke agreed. The two
men then started in to entice poor
travellers to Hare's or some other
cheap lodging house. The victims
were piled with liquor and then suf-
located under mattresses, without
marks Of violence. Doctor Knox took
the bodies and paid up to Ella ($60)
for them. At least 10 people had
been murdered in this way before
Burke and Hare were arrested. Hare
turned kings evidence, and Burke
was found guilty and hanged in Edin-
burgh on January %, 1929. Hare
found Scotland too hot for him and
went to England, where he is believed
to have died under an assumed name.
The verb ITO burke" meaning to suf-
focate, to strangle, to suppress, or to
put out of the way secretly, had its
origin in Burke's method of doing
away with his victims.

Death OF Mrs. E. p. Hempstone.

Many hearts were sad on the 18th OF
October, 1922, because of the passing away
of Elizabeth Poole Hempstone.
She was the only daughter of the late

Use of splendid woman loved by all.
Just AZ years ago, the day before she passed
away, she was united in marriage to Mr..
Vernon Hempstone, of Leesburg, Va, but
at that time merchant of Poolesville.
Mrs. Hempstone was splendid woman,
a sentlewoman of the old school, of whom
few remain. OF quiet. retiring DISPOSE
ton she found her greatest comfort in her
home surrounded by her loved ones, and
her great love for them found ready re-
Spouse in the untirine devotion of her only
son Robert, who left nothing undone for
mothers's comfort and happiness. Her
devotion to her only daughter, Mrs. C. F.
Handley, of Frederick, was greatly mani
tested.
In her love for her family, Mrs Hemp
stone never forgot the unfortunate, those
of her friends stricken with illness or suf-.
fering her willing hand and kind heart
were the first to respond. She Joined the
M, E. Church South of Poolesville in her
girlhood days, but her failing health pre-
vented her attending services for many
years. Her health gradually grew worse
in the past six months after an attack of
pneumonia and the doctors advised her to
60 to the sanitarium, where she passed away
peacefully to rest. She was 81 years old.
The passing away of Mrs. Hempstone
has left vacant place in the home. The
children have lost a devoted mother,
who lavished upon them her wealth of |
love and care and devotion which will be
their solace through the coming years.
