IL was while performbag this ditty that
Albison fired upon her from behind with
a shotgun, and as she rolled off the
stool wounded, he hurried to her, and
picking up an axe, finished his fiendish
deed by smashing in the poor woman's
skull. He than hurriedly prepared a
grave and buried the body where it
was discovered a week later, in a badly
decomposed .condition. In the mean-
time the country had been scoured by
searching parties. According to Alli-
son's confession, he had intended to kill
the whole family, and the grave in the
swamp of which so much has been said
was dug some three weeks before he
killed Mrs. Orr for the reception of Tony
her husband. Throughout the course.

James $tephensm wasn't built that
way and he at out swore out an infor-

rant for her arrest was issued and she
was lodged In tbe Walkerton jail. The
clothing which she obtained on the
forged order, had all been returned,
and as she was too shabbily dressed to
