'I he young woman returned te her mother's
home en Monday. Hiwell neon learned of
her prcnonce, and innplred by the hepe the
lotler just mentioned had raised, called at
the houne Wednesilny night about 7 o'clock.
In response te bin knock Mr Lynch went
te the deer and Inquired what business he
hail with her. Her manner uettled Hewell,
who remarked that he did net want her te
stay longer with her mother, as he bail a bet bet
eor place than that for her. Hhe roplled that
It was no business of his where she stayed.
Other convocations of a similar character
followed, the woman standing Just Inside the
deer, wlille Ilowell steed en the step outside.
Suddenly he drew from beneath his coat a
nix chamlmr 41 callbie revolver, at the sight
of which the woman uttered n slight scream,
nnd turning about finned as quickly ns she
could toward an adjoining room.
Hhe wan net quick enough. Before she
could eisin the deer thnt separated them
Hewell tired three shots, two of which took
etlect lu the weman'a back n few Inches be
low the shoulder. One of them struck a
coiset steel, driving It Inte the body a
distance of eight Inches, The third shot
struck the edge el the bodice, Bllghtly tear
ing lu Death wan Instantaneous, the victim
railing u en the carjK't without uttering a
sellable.
As the frantic mother and her terrllled
children drew near te see what bad happened
the assHHsln M)lnted the weapon at them and
warned them te keep away. Tbey lied te
the neighbors, who, en hearing the circum
stances of the tragedy, organized partlei te
search for the popetrnter. Before they could
reach the house Hewell hnd left, and the
silent hours el night wero taken up In scour
ing the country ler him.

Hew ell returned te the ncone of his crime
enrly In the morning, nnd at three o'clock,
while seated oil a ntone wnll lu front of the
house, was approached by a citizen net
known te him and Ignorant of the sheeting,
who naked what the treuble In the house
was. Hewell replied , " Oh ' l've had a
racket in thore and shot a woman Wish
you'd go lu nnd nee If she's dend. '
The ntrnnger, instead of complying with
this request, went his way and the news of
Hewell n presence wan neon known. A large
crowd, li armed, prmeeded te the heuse,
which had been left deserted, with only the
dead woman tying in one of the room It
was evpeced that Hewell would make a des
perate resistance against arresU He wan
found dead. He had shut himself through
the heart and lay beside bin victim. On a
table near by be had left the following letter
