The Double Crime of an Aged
Pennsylvania “'ldower.
The town of Lebanon. Penn, has been
in a ferment of excitement over a
double murder mrmtratal at Aunville, n lit-
tle village five miles away. William l
Shower-s, aged fifty~nine. a widower. and‘
a cigarmnker, lived on the one:
skirts of Aunville, in n molest little;
home. Nothing was known against him.i
Living with him were two boys name] Sum i
veers Thev were his grandsons. being the 3
children of his deceasal daughter. Their can l
devolved upon Showers, and he ch'afed under l
the additional exis‘nse thev causal. _ ‘
Showers beceune engages to be married tc ,
a widow named Mm Sargent“, but the :
woman finallv told him that she woulc l
' the children were ;
out to board. Showers suddenly :
n to entertain n strange enmity ,
toward his little dsons He told 1
Mrs. Snrgeant that they should be sent away i
to live, and about two weeks the bovs .
disappeared from the house, and Showers told '
the neighbors he had sent them to live With a .
man near Torver City. in Schuylkill cotmty.
Then a suspicion arise that all was putt
right. and whisperings reached the officials ;
in Lebanon that a double murder had prob ’
ably bum committed. Showers tolo
conflicting star-its and Constable Fn- ;
gun went to his home and arrested him It.
" o‘clock Monday morning when the

doors closed behind him in the Lebanon jail.
Still he was only arrested on suspicion untL
an investigation could be made. ‘
First he mid he had given the boys in charge
ofaman \vhu would rovide tl em with a
ioil home in Texas ’ hen he re \rtcd that
e had driven the boys to ower Cit y
and given them into the charge _ of e

the bovs lack for sonnthing he had lost on
the roixl, and they had been kidnapped by .
tramps in the vicinity of lndmutown'bup. a
dangerous place.
Showers «lcclnnd upon his solemn hath that .
3 he did not know the whereabouts of the chil
dren. and tears stn-amed down his checks as
he called upon (1'01 as his Witness. Marry of

Late Tllt‘Mlil)‘ afternoon the bodies of the
bovs were found buried in the lot occupied ,
bv'Sbower‘s house. The ladies were found
covered by only two feet of earth. They
Were six feet apart. and about twenty yards
1 from the house. They had been strangled
‘ With a small cord. and there were deep in-
j (krrmtions in their necks where the string
had been tightly twisted four or five times. .
They were in their riigiitguwns.
After they had been strangled the nrurdvrer.

heads. and then carried the boys out in the
night. and buried them in the holes that had
evidently been prepared in advance. The .
body of one of the boys looked as if he had
been beaten with a club after he had been
choked. and they had apparently been in the
ground two weeks.
It was well for him that Showers was safe
