It has now been proved on v. the trial that a man named Hellodore André murdered tho doesased, threw him ent of the N. 9: narriage, jumped out after him, and wheeled his w. 7 body in a barrow to the spot where it was found. One auriaus point about the crime was the way in which it was discovered. André wasio prison r for some other orice and was under mspicion of being a railway thief, when two gentlerson who had been robbed identified him as the robber. This caused him to be ensposted of the murder, and his mistress on being questioned identified the handkerchief that was tot round the mar dered sa's neck sa Andrës. André's mistress and his sister were charged with being 3000ssories with participation in other thefts. The man was found guilty with extenuating circumstances and Rentenced to peaal servitude for life; the mistress was sentenced to three years' imprisonment, the third prisoner was acquitted.
