JACKSON, Mich., Soveinber 22. —This
morning f.iur |>ersons. namely : Jacob
D. Crouch, aged 74 a widower; Henry
White, aged 38. son in Uw ol Crouch :
Mrs. Eunice Wnite, aged 33, daugbiei
of Mr. Crouch, all of Summit, and
Moses Poley, aged 26, of Transfer, Pa.,
were found murdered in their beds, all
having been shot behind the ear. It is
supf>o*ed that they had been chloro
formed first, each victim lying as
asleep, and an odor of chloroform was
noticeable when the bodies were dis
covered. Mrs. White was also shot
tnrough the left arm.
No claw to the perpetrators of the
butchering has as yet been discovered,
although tracks around the house indi
cate that a guard was placed on waich
while ibe terrible tragedy was teing
-enacted within. Crouch was a wealthy
ftrmer living seven miles southwest of
Jackson and the owner of an extensive
sheep rancbe in Texas.
It would seem that the assassins in
this case were ambitious to see how
many livea could be sacrificed in order
40 effect a robbery.
