-A horrible and sad cape of 'murder
took place et Pine Orchard, near New-
market,..hetween V-dind 10 o clock on
Thursday morning, in a well-to-do and
highly -respected family.
Nobody wee present wlaen the Mei
tuit was performed, but the circum-
stances show plainly the chain of
events.
Kra. Samuel jewett, wife of a well,o
known schooi teacher at Toronto June.
tiou, aid forraerly at Bogartown,ciame
-home a few Monate ago, on the advice
of her pliyalcian, to -'try the benefit of
a change, being in poor health ever
since the birth of her baby about six
months ago, She had also brought
two other chitdren with her, and all
were made as oomfortable as pos-
sible at her home, being a daughter
of the late James Starr,
Mrs. Starr, her mother, ie very poor-
ly, being confined, to her bed ann un-
der the dootors care.
Thursday morning.. • when Mrs,
jewiti commenced vvasbing the baby
by the kitchen stove• her sister went
down cellar to work some butter. On
finishing she came ,,upstairs, and
found,the wa.sh basin and other things
where they were used, and erome Of
the baby s Mattes. but Mrs. Jewitt
was miseing. After going to see if
her mother required anything she
came back to the kitchen to see what
her sister was doing.
4 THE CHILD WA$ MURDERED.
On going into the woodshed a hor-
rible sigbt met her gaze. There (he
darling little babe, partly dremed,
was lying with its brains knocked out.
It had been .stro.ok an awful blow on
the side of the head with the • back
ot an ola axe, that was used in• the
wood -shed to chop light wood. The axe
was left near by and was stained with
blood. Miss Starr at ones alarmed
everybody on , 'the farm:, sent for.
neighbours and Coroner Scott, of
Newmarket.
Shortly after, the fainily physician
arrived en his usual visit, but 'Mrs..
Jewitt could not be found.
The mailer was eleargy a eerie of
temporary ineanity, and had been dez
liberately planned,, insanity runs to
some extent in'the family.
Mrs. -Jewett had sent the two older
children to the barn* to hunt eggs, tell-
ing them that she would' soon be out
there with them. •
The child was a little cross and fret-
ful, but otherwise a healthy and pro-
mising baby;. still its mother had re-
marked to her ' sister' that it would be
better if the child was dead.
• (ME MOTHER'S Ii9DY FOUND.
The • neighbors were soon aroused
and a party was formed to search- for
the mother. They found an apron on
the fence near the woods, bnt failed
to find athe perpetrator -of the awful
deed, Diligent .search was kept up,
and about one °Week they found the
lifeless form of Mrs. Jewitt under a
bridge that spans the meek a short
distance from the house. Tne theory
is that she must have been watching
the searching party, as they had look-
ed under the bridge a short time be-
fore, and that -when she saw a chance
she came out of t'he woods, •took re-
fuge 'under the bridge, and drowned
herself in about eight inches of water.
Dr. Webb, who is attending cad Mrs.
Starr' came to pay a professienal visit
about10 o'clock and helped to dress
the murdered child. Coroner Scott was
summoned ancl immediately commum-
mated with County Crown Attorney
Dewart, who ordered an inquest 16 be
held.
' A FATAL MONTH,
• •
Morolliustrines Persons Die itt April Than
• Any Other Month.
Statistics which bare been compil-
ed seem to show that there is no month
hi the year which is more fatal to
illustrious personages than April. Here
for example, is a partial/list of those
who have died 'during that month:-
Abelard died April 21, 1142; Marino
Faller% Doge of Venice, April 17,1355;
Raphael, April 8, 1520; Bayard, April
80, 1524.; Diane de Poitiers, April 22,
1560; Tasso, April 25, 1595; Shake -
Spear; April 23, 1616; Murillo, April
3, 1682; Mme, de Sevigne, April 18,
1690; Racine, April 21, 1699; Mme. de
Mamtenon, April 14, 1719; Buffon,
April 16, 1788; Frettklin, April 15,1790,
and •Rivarol, Apra 13, 1804.
This id rather an imposing array of
names,but the question is, Would it
not be possible to obtain an 'equally
imposing array atf-names of illustri-
ous personages who died during anoth-
er Month of the year 1 Persons who
have given some attention to the sub-
ject claim that there is no month of
the year which is more fatal to hu-
man beings than another, and the sta-
tistics published above are not likely
to convince them that they are in er-
ror.

Mr. John McMillan, South rtarom

that Canadian farmers were ruining

Mr. Clandy took a similar view of the

drawn to the public attention. The evil
is one which should not be glassed river
