A SAD. CASE.
Trte OLD Saone Or MAN'S DIEd1.011EIVY
To t Teuenwo Weeieer,
One of the saddest events ever ehroni-
tiled in thie county culminatect in the
family of Mr, Robert itiutoh, a well known
and htghly reepected farmer living in East
Wawauosb, on Manley night last. His
daughter Jessie a yoang woman of 22
years, was the yietira, and the history of
the caw) shows it to be the 'old and gruel
story of seduction under promise of
marriage, then abandonment by the be-
trayer, and the death of the poor girl,
probably by her own hand, to avoid the
shame she oould not face.
On Monday evening Mr. and Ws. Hutch
were absent from homemoad their daughter
Jessie, atter spending the evening with her
brothers, William ani Fred, retired,
apparently in the beat of spirits; but ebout
midnight her sereame alarmed the house-
hold and the was found in the throes of
death from the effects of a dose of strych-
nine, Dr. McLaughlin, of Man:attester,
was summoned, but could do nothing.
A coroner's inquest was held on Wed-
needayby Dr Milne, of Blyth, under the
direetion of Mr Lewis, who acted on be-
half of the crown atto ney, Drs, eleLeugh-
lin and Fergason performing the post
raortem examination. The deceseed had
been keeping company with a yotme man
named John Fentou, a miller, and from
her correspondence and a diary she had
kept, it was found. that, having accomplish-
ed her ruin, ha had grown tired of her nod
refused to merry her. Fenton was call d
as a witness, aud at first veined disaosed
to deny everything, bin under skillful moss
questioning he finally admitted .he whoie
story; also that the deceased had told him
she wonlel commit suicide if he did not
marrylher, and that he had"one time taken
O package of strychniue from her and barn -
ed it. The mother of damaged had only
recently suspected that anything was wrong
with her girl, andhad determined on
lemming the feet and endeavoring to
secure an honorable settlement by the
young man, bat before her intentions
could be carded out the hand of deathbed
fallen. The jury returned an open verdict
that deceased came to her death by poieon
administered by sotne one anknown, and so
the sad tragedy rests for the present.
Intense indignation is felt towards the
heartless end cowardly wretch who. is the
cause of the poor girl's untimely death,
and but for the respect for law which is
oharacterietic of Comedians, he would have
metr with aouiething like his deserts at the
hands of the °Weans of that seedori.
sse-e
Chatted° NOt A Lunatio-
-e-sves_ie-esse
ses,
The day after his arrest 011 being
interviewed in Stratford jail by Govern-
ment Detective eZtrray, ekmedee Chat-
'telle, the butcher of little Jessie Keith,
near Listowel, stated that ho haa for
a period of eight or ten months been an
inmate of the Taunton, Massachusetts,
lunatic hospital, having been committed
from Boston nine years ago. Invest-
igation proves that Chattel's's story is a
fabricatiou. Yesterday a letter • was
received from J B Brown, M. B., sup-
erintendent of the Taunton lunatic hos-
pital, stating that Ohattellehi name
clues not appear on the register in the
past 25 years, nor do any of the attend-
ants recognize the portrait and descrip-
tion forwarded toTauntou as that of any
previous patient in the hospital. This
disposes of the idea that Chattelle may
haye been in the institution under
another name. The result of this in-
quiry will tend to show- thee Ohattelle
adopted the maniac plea in order to save
his neck, if possible.
