’ By the graphic account of the confemion
of this fiend in human shape, published in

transpires that, she had caused the death of
eight Demons, by tlie'administration to them
of poison. As is well known; she had been
tried and convicted of murder in the second
degree. and was waiting the final sentence
of the law. Close confinement had the cf.
feet to wurm out of IICI' the tale which now
hat-rows up our souls.
After unbecoming herself to the jailor,
acknowledging herself guilty of the crime,

bond sold for eighty-five cents. Subsequent
second bonds were" issued to the amount of
$200,000. The second bond sold for fifty
cents. The business of the road just about

pected to pay it in, so the road was sent into
the hands of the bondholders.
